Black Sheep Monty Pythons Holy Grail

From bottle : Had at World of Beer in Tampa. Pours a amber color. I really thought this beer was horrible. Tasted very much of alcohol, yet has a very low ABV. Palate was bad, aftertaste bad, i just had a bad experience putting this liquid in my mouth.

500 ml bottle. Light copper colour. Tall fine-laced off-white head that clings to the glass. Sweet-and-sour nutty aroma with rich malts. Earthy hops. Chocolate flavours balanced by caramel malts. Lots of flavour. Minty hops with an earthy flavour and a broad and dry finish. Nicely rounded. A classic English ale. Has more character than most other similar ales. I like it.

Bottle. Medium head with medium duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are rich with malt and hops. Some caramel and citrus too.

draft- absolutely disgusting. For a beer of such low alcohol, how is it that all I tasted was fusels, and booze. Terrible. I paid 8 bucks for a pint of this in Vegas, only to leave 98 percent of the beer on the bar in protest.

500ml bottle. Pours a nice golden-copper colour with a large beige head. The aroma is a little off, sort of bizarre, but I’ll just assume that’s the burned witches. The taste is more pleasant, nice caramel malts with a lot of nuttiness to it, followed by a dry, hoppy finish. Not a bad bitter, and I love the maketing gag.

500ml bottle. Drunk from the bottle, haven’t got a clue what it looks like! Superb citrus and fruity hoppy aroma, very clean and crisp. Taste similar, but even hoppier - zingy ginger, for a start. Subtle darkly roasted malts as well as more grainy medium malts. Dry and long hoppy finish. Good English bitter.

500 ml bottle from Elephant & Castle. Amber pour with decent off white head. Some sweet fruity aromas. Flavors were decent bitter with just a touch of the fruit that came off the nose. Not too bad.

50cL bottle. Brilliant label. Pours a clear gold color with a white head. Very easy to drink but lacking in complexity and ESB character.
