Commercial Description:
A classic British style winter warmer for those cold blustery nights! This rich dark ale displays strong malt character, with caramel-roast nuances and Christmas pudding overtones. Complex and flavoursome, the Southerly Buster is an ale to be savoured

Very ordinary. Unsure what style - seems a mix that just doesn’t work - a beer that doesn’t know what it is supposed to be. Thin flavour and too loght a carbonation.

Sweet smokey malt aroma. Clear red amber colour with good head and lacing. Bitter nutty malt flavour. Smooth palate.

Aroma: malty and some hoppy notes with some grainy/porridge notes. Appearance: amber brown, perfectly clear and a flat just off white head. Flavour: malty toffee, some grainy and light carbon notes. Palate: thin gently carbonated. Finishes with lingering bitterness and noticeable carbon.

couldn’t work out what style of beer this was supposed tobe, thought at one stage it was a dark lager, due to the lack of any noticeable yeast aroma. Really thin body and I tipped most of it down the drain. reminiscent of a bad homebrew.
