Duchy Originals Golden Ale (4.2% abv)
The first "meh" beer I've had in a while, I think. A first taste that's alcoholically sweet, with bitter, almost sour hop coming through to dominate, but wthout much complexity to get hold of. Not awful, but not particularly great either, and not a beer that has you reaching for the bottle to note the name so you can drink it again.
Mrs M says "Very nice".

Mrs McGinty thought this was 'very nice' too. Old Chuck's beers ain't too bad, I've tasted worse.

Had couple of pints of this yesterday. Not too heavy, citrusy, perfect lunchtime pint before settling down to concentrate on university work/ the football scores coming in on the radio during the afternoon.

Rich sweet caramel malty hoppy fruitiness, a nice warming beer on a cold wet Sunday. Yumtus rating - 8+.
8+ ? High praise.
I'm off to eat a goose smoked in the kamado joe, chez son - I'll need to pick up a selection of suitable ales en route. Any suggestions as to type? Stout, black IPA?

I'd be reaching for the Aecht Schkenkerla. Smoked goose and rauchbier - lovely!

I'd want a clean golden type beer to complement the smokiness.

Yup, although I think it's a shame, given the really good traditional bitters and golds that are out there, that these aren't better.

Full English breakfast IPA from Het Uiltje.
An ale brewed with beans, tea and marmelade. I get the tea and marmelade, but there's an odd savory taste from the beans I guess. They should make this again without the beans.
