A raspberry sour with almond and vanilla.
Its really good. The raspberry and sourness is at the front, but has a nice rounded palette provided by the sweet almondy flavour to finish. Another superb beer from the peeps at Unbarred.

Wow, this is really different and quite distinctive, the first thing that hit me was a sweet / ever so slight spice taste that you get from Belgian yeast, very much like a weak Belgian beer. But it doesn’t feature such yeast. I think the distinct flavouring of this pint comes purely from the hop profile. Its a really light, refreshing and nice pale bitter.

This is a lovely sweet malty beer with the subtly taste of banana to boot. A really nice, soft, and flavoursome pint, and not too sweet that its sickly.

I wasn’t sure about this at first. Its quite hoppy, but does follow through with a copious amount of chocolate. Its a really solid, smooth stout, and one for those who want a chocolately flavoured beer, but not too sweet.

Battenberg pastry sour. A very interesting flavour. Initially the smell was really intensely sour and I wasn’t convinced I would like it. However it is definitely and quite thankfully sweeter than it smells. I can taste the almondy-ness of the marzipan, and the raspberry of the jam, along with what I can only describe as rose, as in Turkish Delight?! Obscure I know, but luckily I am a fan of this too.
All in all a super refreshing, fruity, great tasting beer.

A nice fruity, mellow hoppy affair. Quite refreshing, but not a lot to it.

Wow, now this is one of the best beers I have ever tried, period. . .
Its barrel aged in oak bourbon barrels and is an Chocolate, Hazlenut and Coffee imperial stout.
All of the flavours are there, sumptuous, rich chocolate, nutty hazelnut and a nice edge of coffee rounded off perfectly by the oakiness of the barrel aging. Absolutely superb, go on! treat yourself!

Nice amber in colour, but thats the only part thats nice. Its a bitter tasting (but not in a nice way) beer, that offers very little else. a real shame, this is the second time I have tried it several years later. . . one of my favourite aircraft, one of my least favourite beers!

Coffee and Walnut cake imperial milk stout.
A nice change, not overly sweet, can really taste a nuttiness and the coffee comes through strong. Smooth. Nice beer.
