24. tazman1967 "Scorched Earth" Smoked Saison
Opened it not knowing what it was/who's it was. Initial smell made me think of something Belgian-y. Probably a little undercarbed for a saison and I forgot to wash my glass prior to pouring so can't really comment on head retention. The smoke...
Maris Ottter, Munich 1, Carared and Shepherds Delight. I'm pretty happy with the hop profile, though I'm unsure if it's not just a little bit too bitter. Might reduce the 60 min addition next time around.
6. Earle - Choc Wheat IPA
Felt there were a lot of hops on the nose but not a whole heap while drinking. Head retention out the wahzoo, malt and roast were very well balanced. Great beer, man, really well done.

Gingerbread on the nose. The carbonation really helps with the spice flavour. Looking forward to seeing how it develops as it warms.
