Dec 18, 2007 A Mes rate: 50cl bottle at Pigs Ear.
Lovely dark copper colour with a slight haze. Sweet marzipan like aroma with some nice aromatic hoppage. The hops are really tangy in the mouth with some sweet malt and fruit and a dusty tobacco finish. Pretty straight forward but another decent offering from Felstar.

Dec 13, 2007 500 ml bottle bought at Pig’s Ear.
Packed with malty flavour, this is more Belgian than Briish at first sip. Then the hops kick in, and we are more talking American ales, with a stong grassy body and finish. This may be a one off, but let’s hope they make similar brews - one of the most interesting beers from the UK I’ve tried this year - and it’s been a few!
