Hoxne Flat Cap
Bottle from Beautiful Beers, Bury St Edmunds. Rated from historic notes, purchased around spring 2015. Poured mid-brown, slightly hazy, with a small off-white head. Aroma is fruity, light chocolate and yeast. Moderate sweetness, light bitterness. Body quite light but as expected given its low abv. Soft carbonation. Easy drinking mild, and pretty decent overall.

Hoxne Old Forge Amber
Cask conditioned at Nottingham Beer Festival 2016. Amber with white head. There is a mid roasted maltiness to this, some sweetness, some smoky hints. Turns a little bittering later on. A reasonable standard bitter.

Hoxne Suffolk Punch Better Bitter
Bottle from Beautiful Beers. Pours golden colour, clear and with good head which disappears fairly quickly but leaving a nice lacing. Scent of pear drops, sucky sweets and herbs. Flavour is the same pear drop sweetness with citrus hops. Very drinkable and refreshing. Not too sweet with nice mouthfeel. Good.
