Sam Smith's, of all brewers, producing a fruity number? Having passed Peak Hop some time ago I think we're close to Peak Fruit. Shortly to come: Malt makes a comeback.

Not sure you’re right about that. I see more good than ever being used.

The coming trend though is increased use of enzymes: take a bow, Brut IPA.

(Edit: good = hops)

I love their beers:okay:-the Crafty Baa in Windermere and Tweedies in Grasmere often have them. Incidentally I sampled a Vanilla Pale from Wander Beyond (Manchester) in Fell Penrith last Friday. Interesting but I'd say vanilla works better in a stout or porter...their Great Rift Milk Stout was very good though.:cheers:

Yesterday's encounter...

A Natural Selection from Good Chemistry. A good but over bitter pale.

Tonight brought me a Magic Rock High Wire

Another pale, quite full bodied and nowhere near as bitter as the Natural Selection from yesterday. Preferabubble almost. A candlelit dinger.

Finally for this evening: Villages launched a new beer today, a Gecko.

Well, at 2.25% I could have easily drunk three of this delightful little beer. Because ''Little Beer'' is what it's described as. So far, this little brewery have produced a number of very good beers but, their no-longer-available stout excepted, they're variations on the same basic theme. It's surprising that such a low alcohol beer can be so fully flavoured. They should have brewed this a couple of months earlier in the year and it would have been the prize of the summer.
