Silver Stallion

4.3% Bitter

A complex mix of four hops - Goldings, Bramling Cross, Northdown and WGV - plus a pinch of chocolate malt joining pale malt in the mash, produced a robustly flavoured beer with a fresh and fruity nose (hints of blackcurrant), plus biscuity maltiness in the background. In the mouth it’s full-bodied and malty at the starting post with a hint of blackcurrant, while citrus and spice overtones join in the race; the initial grainy malty finish is followed by a growing and lingering bitterness. Available: June-July

Interesting. Malty and I even get the hints of blackcurrant mentioned on the official description. Pretty nice!

If this is the first of the new brews then the future is looking good.

Decent drink. It has a nice malty aroma and taste, with a subtle fruit flavour and a nice biscuity maltiness thrown in. There is a slight bitter finish, but it is enjoyable. It's a smooth and easy-drinking session ale that's totally quaffable. Sadly, it seems to be suffering from the usual JDW curse, as it is very flat without any creaminess. I was expecting it to be quite a bit better, but its lack of any head is my reason for the scoring. If it was a bit livelier I would have been scoring it around 3.8 or 3.9.
