3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bomber. Beautiful orange pour with a frothy, clingy white head. Aroma is mainly citrus. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Lots of fruity hop, and spicey malt underlaying that. It’s very delicious, and the rye really comes out as the hop washes away. Little hot bits pop up. This finishes very floral/fruity, and it’s just excellent. The rye note is everpresent. Love this stuff.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottled, 355ml from Bellingers Garage, Grove, Oxon. Gold with white head. I hadn’t held out much hope for this, so I drank it as a pre Xmas eve warmer upper, but wow, if i have another beer like this tonight I will be very lucky. Sharp, bitter lemon notes with a corriander herby note. Light, bitter and lovely. Probably the best Rye beer I have had.
