Sour mash nose with plenty of hop spice coming through. Flavour is deeply vinous with a strong malty sweetness - golden syrup, treacle, this sort of thing. Finish has a good underpinning bitterness but this one is slightly out of balance with a bit too much sweet malt making it ever so slightly cloying. Nevertheless, a pleasant enough drop.

Bottle@home from Trembling Madness
Dark ruby with lively carbonation and large beige head. Banana peel, soap powder and custard. Really high carbonation, alcohol really boisterous obscuring most of the flavours, burning the mouth and throat. Astringent coffee on swallow. Not nice unfortunately.

Bottle pour. Dark brown with a light beige head. Banana, yeast, alcohol, and veggies in the nose. Taste is banana, chocolate, juicy hops, brown sugar, and bread. Reminds me of some Belgian strong ales I’ve had.
