Bottle. Kernel advent box. Hazy murked up gold. Very nice swede in the Kernel fashion. Nose has sweet grain. Wheat. Bit of sage. Mint. We’ve got ourselves a savoury affair. Smells like a shelf turd US beer, as in it smells old and a bit sweaty. Definitely some oxidation going on here. Taste is pretty sweet overall. Inevitably bitter. Wow. Wasn’t expecting hard work from this but there you go. Can’t have it always.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Clear light amber. Nicely solid just off white foam stays the course. Nutty bready herbal soft spicy malts and grassy leafy nettle leaf like hop. Taste is nutty and sweet with mulch like bitterness. Good body stays sinkable throughout. Spicy hop finish with a light dry bitterness. Solid tackle.

Bottle. Kernel advent box. Hazed pale lemon squash colour. Huge swede eventually settles to an egg mere type affair. Nose has lemon peel and juice. Yeasty. Bretty. Mildly spicy and herbaceous. Taste is lean dry and mild bitter. Bright and very crisp with lots of burp inducing foamy carbonation. Dry lemony finish. Good starter beer. Gets the palate livened up.

Bottle. Although this is keg only, so cheers Lee. Hazed gold. Slim white foam. Nose has pineapple and peach. Soft brett. Wine barrel. Touch of white grape. Taste is sweet tart juicy fruity and light bitter. Loads of depth. Unreal juice. Tart juicy funky finish. Couldn’t elaborate too much because it got sank in minutes. Like literally 4 or 5 minutes. Ace.
gave a cheers!

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. Clear pale coppery gold. Sturdy just off white foam stays the course. Nice malts here coming across nutty and sweet biscuit like. Touch of spiciness. Actually a tad festive. Hops too are spicy and mulchy. Taste is fairly sweet with good leafy hop bitterness. Very sinkable at 5.8. Semi dry semi bitter finish. Tasty marzen with good malty character.

Bottle. Mitchell’s Wines. The average score on here is well right. 99% clear straw gold. Very decent lasting white foam. Nose has dry clean grain. Mellow hop spice. Some old lemon. Bit of sour. Taste follows suit really. Clean and semi sweet. Spicy bitterness. Natural carbonation. Light dry light bitter finish. Immensely chuggable.

Bottle via the online shop. Hazed deep ruby red. Lovely thick dense lasting head the colour of loganberry mousse. Nose has sweet and juicy red grape. Whiff of the apple. Whiff of blackcurrant giving an inevitable ribena vibe. But this all about the grape. Big St Lamvinus vibe. Taste is semi sweet, with a definite dryness and moderate acidity. Chugs easy overall. Juicy lightly funky finish. Ace. Lots going off.

Bottle. Kernel advent box. Pretty hazy gold. Beaut of a Kernel swede. Nose has pineapple weed. Pineapple flesh. Some ripe strawberry. Maybe some sweet red grape. Taste has a definite sweetness first up with a moderate bitterness. There’s a bit of an astringent thing going off too. Like a fresh hop “greenness”. Whatever it drinks fine with decent body and fine foamy carbonation. Bitter finish builds and lingers. Quite a curious bev overall.

Can picked up at the brewery. Hazed straw gold. Decent white foam as far as TP beers go. Nose has sweet lemon and a bit of mango. Some tinned fruit syrup. Clean malt backdrop. Taste has some fruity sweetness but is mostly dry and a little bitter. Bright light and easy drinking. Dry-ish finish.
