More beers from our away trip in March.

More of the beers I had on our trip to the Lake District at the beginning of march, before we were all confined to our homes. These are all from the Great Newsome brewery and they were given to me by Nicole, Tim, Georgia, Emily and Syd, on that Sundy, for my birthday. As with the previous beers though from Hawkshead, I had had some of them before but a lot more, so will do them later in another post.

Great Newsome, Cold Snap from England

 

5.2% gold in colour with a thin head, malt and hop aroma, the taste was of hoppy lager

Great Newsome, Holderness Dark from England

 

4.3% deep brown in colour with a nice head, rost malt aroma, the taste is mild and toffee

A few from, March 2016

Some of the odd beers I have had in March, some good some not quite as good, anyway here goes.

Sainsbury’s, Parkin's Special Bitter from England

3.8% amber in colour with a thin head, it smells and tastes like a reasonable bitter. I have had the Parkin's Bitter previously with only 3.0% alcohol and that one was not bad either.

Great Newsome, Frothingham Best from England

 

4.3% amber in colour with a nice head, malty aroma, nice dry bitter beer.

Aldi, Brasserie Biere Superieure from France

 

4.0% gold in colour with a thin head, malt aroma and taste and not bad. Also known as - Aldi, Brasserie Imported Premium Lager, France - at various strengths.
