THE Sour and Saison tasting. One for the road courtesy of Leighton - cheers mate - was seeking this one out. Clear amber beer, good pale cream coloured head. Light palate, crispy. Soft creamy malt with that lovely rye spice. Great hops - deep and rich and marmaladey. The lemon is there and provides extra dimension and citric bitterness. Finishes smooth. Great stuff! 4.0

Craft Clerkenwell. Bottle shared with Frederic, Chris and Dan. Hazy orange - amber beer. Little white head. Palate is light and soft. Lovely floral lemon and not too acid at all. Nice undertone of rich marmalade hops. Finishes with more lovely lemon tang and floralness. Really good idea and superbly executed. Hides the abv very well.

Bomber from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours clear light copper with a 3 finger creamy/foamy off-white head. Aroma has spice and citrus. Full bodied. Foamy carb. Flavor is spice, citrus, anise?, sweetish caramel. It’s not overly sweet, but it doesn’t quit reach dry. There’s a strong veg/herb component. Like sucking on woody twigs of a lemon sort. Really amazing and tasty.
