3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20Pours a lovely clear deep reddish bronze with creamy foam. Aroma is lots of caramel, toffee, molasses, slight tobacco. Taste adds lots of caramel again, with some preserved fruit added. Salt is there. It’s principally sweet, as you’d expect, but something about it (partial credit to the salt no doubt) gives it a ’savoury’ balance so it doesn’t get cloying.

Poured from a 650mL bottle. Clear orangish brown in colour with minimal off-white head. Very metallic aroma with some toffee, bread, and caramel. Qutie sweet and caramel-y to start with strong salt finish. Lacks body, similar to other Parallel 49 beers in the mouth.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a nice deep ruby, two fingers of frothy off-white head that lingers. Aroma reminds me immediately of those awesome hard caramels in the orange wrappers they used to give out at Hallowe’en. Tasting - tastes a lot like those caramels, nice sweet malt, a tiny bit of breadiness, a hint of salt, though I don’t know if that is just because it says it on the bottle or there actually is a bit of salt in here. Nice rich mouthfeel, lingering taste.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Interesting beer, aroma is pretty strong caramel and bready malts, a nice chocolatey fudge backbone. Taste is caramel, cocoa, burnt sugar and yeah.. Salt. Really nice experiment.

Ambrée/orange avec une mousse blanche. Nez de caramel salé avec un goût pareille. Pas mal sucré. Très bonne si tu prends un peu, mais je ne sais pas si j’aimerais boire plus qu’une à la fois!
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Relatively clear brown with a good sized off-white head that leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is caramel, dark bread, toffee, fudge. Creamy mouthfeel, good body, sweet on the palate with a little salt on the finish. Taste is caramel, butter, sticky toffee pudding, tea cake, hint of salt. Quite a unique flavour - nicely done!

Bright orange and caramel nose with saltwater taffee flavour, remains smooth and bright throughout the bottle. I was in the mood for a DIPA but didn’t have any in the fridge. I liked this at least as much. Nice, a beer I love that tastes like nothing I’ve remotely had before. That’s enough to tick it up from a 3.9 to a 4.
This brewery appears to be solid across the styles.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle share. This beer is exactly as described on the bottle. Heavy nose of caramel and salt. Taste is heavy caramel with sea salt cutting off/balancing the flavour. It's a fun beer.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
650ml brown bottle. Golden brown colour, some haze. Fat white head, good creamy bead and great lacing in the glass. Caramel nose. Taste has caramel sweetness, thick toffee, light peanut, slight salty note. Some grain in the finish, lighter caramel notes. Medium body, fine carbonation. No signs of any alcohol in this brew. Doesn’t hit the mark for me, the sweetness/richness of the caramel toffee thing gets tiring and doesn’t make it easy to drink.
