Wychwood Fiddlers Elbow (Pasteurised)

The Fiddler’s elbow pours a dark amber with a weak aroma. This flavor has both malts and hops that are noticeably present, but they don’t really seem to mix together too smoothly.

Bottle. Clear amber with medium off white head. Sweet with mild hoppy,peachy and caramel notes.

Bottle. Dark copper beer, thin head. Malty, plums, sugar. caramel. Nice complex stuff that’s still very drinkable.

A decent ESB. Aroma was a little weak. Mostly caramel malt. Pour was a nice deep dark gold/light brown with a one finger off white head. Taste was mostly caramel malt with decent carbonation and just a hint of earthy hops in the background. Good, not great.

500ml bottle from the hag we call Steptoe. A gnarled old slag who stinks of piss and owns the only offy near by. The Last Oasis it’s called. Avoid it like the plague. Especially when this is the best they have. Slight tobacco and caramel but a little thin tasting. Not terrible by any stretch, average

500mL bottle. Pours a clear amber colored body with small white head. Aroma is grassy hops and a hint of caramel. Flavor is some bitter hop... which I guess is expected from a premium bitter. Just not a big fan personally.

500ml bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. The head was off white and reduced relatively quickly to a thin film. A bit of lace was left behind. Interesting aroma of subdued brown sugar, toffee, and some grassy hops. There was also an occasional whiff of copper. Mixed fruit and blunted caramel flavors. Eh.

Bottle @ Republikken, Kolding.
Pours hazy amber with a big, creamy off-white head. Aroma is sugary sweet, some caramel and good grassy hops. A bit low in carbonation. Flavour is very well-balanced, good caramel with subdued hops flavours, but good bitterness.
