remembered the note pad today
Robw Robust Porter
i probably should of left this till later but god dam it i wanted to drink a porter
nice light brown head which lasted the glass, very dark brown almost black color.
light aroma of dark malts and a hint of something metallic.
very creamy taste with a lovely toastiness at the end that lasts and is in no way overdone
beautifully constructed beer
half wit
in my haste i didn't chill this beer down enough befor i drank it
hazy off golden color, perhaps a touch dark for a wit
the aroma was pretty amazing deffinatly could smell the lime and chamomil with the flavour being pretty much the same as the aroma.
great mouthfeel but with a strange taste at the end, i couldn't pick what it was and because of that i was left wanting more to try figure it out, very interesting
overall it was a good beer, it might have put me off using chamomile in a wit but it was deffinatly interesting
Peels Cream Ale
nice half inch head that lasted the glass with a beautifull clear color
no notacable aroma and a light malt flavour
great mouthfeel and carbonation was spot on
very quaffable and would be a great beer to turn people onto homebrew. my old man has ordered me to make more of this beer
perfect representaion of the style
Velophile APA
nice tan color with low tight head, slight amarillo/passionfruity aroma. notacable malt backbone with slight bitterness, very drinkable with a good amount of carbonation. the head had depleated by the end of the glass but is more likely the glass and not the beer. another beer i could just kept drinking.
marks amarillo amber
nice half inch head with very clear brown color, it was nice to be able to pour a whole beer and not leave the dregs behind in the bottle. aroma was very amarillo/passionfruit and the taste was the same i was a little dissapointed with the lack of malt (but i love malt driven beers). the beer was bitter but not overly so, low carbonation and a slight metallic taste, this was a really good beer but i'd be quick to try something else, sorry mark
Lucas Altbier
nice looking beer with a very small compact head and a light amber color, malt aroma, light mouthfeel with nice malty taste and some slight choc at the end with a light bitterness that lingers, i found the beer slightly over carbed but i was left wanting more, good beer and i'm tempted to change the malt bill in the altbier i'm making soon to this one instead
