Commercial Description:
330ml bottle; Cold Filtered.
Curious Brew Brut is the result of a co-operation between English Wines' Frazer Thompson (formerly Heineken Global Brand Director), Owen Elias (UKVA Winemaker of the Year 2002 and 2003), and Andy Hepworth. The beer is brewed by Hepworth as a lager, using East Anglian malt and Cascade and Saaz hops. It is then re-fermented using Champagne yeast. Finally it is cold filtered and bottled.

33cl bottle from the Goods Shed, Canterbury. Golden, good carbonation and thin lasting white head. Woody lager aroma, some citrus. Too fizzy and woody in mouth and then I don’t like the finish at all. Please someone, take this away from me. Overall nasty.

Bottled. A rather crappy and sweet lager with loads of cardboard in the aroma and in the flavour. Thin and sparkling.

Bottle at home ... Crisp golden orange .... a lager hop nose with just a hint of soft malts ... smooth and sweet ... light carbonation ... not by thing but as lager goes not to bad.

Bottle from Macknade Farm Shop, Faversham. Dry lager with gentle fizz. Woody flavour, lingering - not pleasant. Tastes and smells musty and stale.

Very lively at first but when it settled down it revealed itself to be a quite dry lager.Different but surprisingly pleasant.

Bottle. Golden colour with a slim white, soon gone, head. Sweet and hoppy aroma. Taste is a bit different, just not sure if it’s in a good way; quite crisp, fruity and dry. On refelction; not too bad.
