500ml bottle from Torquay supermarket. Big tasting beer with no carbonation. An alcohol feel of a barley wine. Sturdy malt with a good burn of hops. Holds together well. This tastes like a whiskey beer. Wood and vine character. A very satisfying Winter Warmer pulling well above its weight.

Bottle, 500ml. A reddish-brown colour with no head. Aroma is hoppy, slightly sweet with fruit cake. Taste is fairly hoppy, some chocolate malt, cherry and caramel. Flat carbonation - clearly hasn’t bottle conditioned. A moderately bitter, tannic finish with some caramel. Pretty tasty; shame about the lack of carbonation.

Bottle conditioned. Gorgeous looking ruddy brown beer with foamy off-white head. Fruity nose, smooth palate & a malty taste with lingering bitterness. A good winter warmer.

Bottle purchase from Tuckers maltings online. Poured a chesnut colour with very little head good spicey and malty aroma. Taste was pleasantly malty with some dried fruits and had a definate christmasy feel to it. Another good beer from Teignworthy.
