A day late but good to have this one again. Malty bitter with character.

Last had this at the Soloman Cutler in April 2022. Clear malty red ale with dimpled white head and caramel nose. Its alright but slight downgrade for chilled serve.

Dark ruby ale with white dimpled top. Served too cold but a sweetish honey porter is emerging as it warms up.

Clear bronze ale with well-balanced nutty, malty flavours and hoppy (Bobek, Goldings, Northern Brewer) finish. Cannot believe that Ant W. had this in ‘spoons before me!

Absolutely gorgeous. What a porter should be like, imho.

Strong and hoppy, and probably not optimal on a Monday night!

Clear golden APA brewed using US Chinook and Citra hops. Would be a great refresher on a hot sunny day but it’s a cold, wet and windy day in Newcastle-under-Lyme and the beers a touch too cold for the expected hoppy aromas and flavours.
