Sam really took this beer and made a historic challenge. Im sure the story behind this beer was some what embellished. Ive watched the people drink this and are confused and don’t quit understand the input to create this piece of history. Well done Sam.

Bottled, 355ml from Bellingers Garage, Grove, Oxon. Hazy orange gold with no head. Sweet, wine like flavours, quite heavy on the palate. The sweetness is quite honeyed in character, there is also a heavy fruitiness. I wasn’t over keen on this mix I have to say, slightly disappointed.
