Passionfruit Nectarine Sour - Yonder - 4.5% ABV. B++, fruity, nectarine, sour and gently tart. Sharp, fruity and gently bitter finish #ale #beer #bier 3.5/5. The Project, Caerphilly and its sours from the fridge. This is Yonder from Somerset and it’s what you want. Prost. image
Epitaph - Dark Element - 6.0% ABV. B++, murk, fruity, quite sharp with a lingering fruity bitter finish. Refreshing #ale #beer #bier 3.5/5. Sharp and more tingly on the tongue. Strong but strength isn’t everything. Could drink this all afternoon. Quality springtime brew.
Inferno - Dark Element - 8.0% ABV. B++, murky, malty, fruity, hints of earth and spice. Spicy, bitter and dry long finish #ale #beer #bier 3.5/5. Full of hops and full bodied with a pleasing mouth feel. The Project / Dark Element, Caerphilly 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Well worth a visit.
Wallaby - Penny Red - 4.6% ABV. B+ and a bit, malty, hoppy, gently fruity with hints of earthiness which continues into the gently bitter finish #ale #beer #bier 3.3/5. Brewed in the UK by Oakham Ales, which is a good thing. Improves if drunk at room / bar temperature. Solid.

Harmonia - Oakham Ales - 5.5%. B++, a lot going on here. Full bodied, malty, hoppy, fruity, stone fruit with a lingering dry, bitter, fruity finish #ale #beer #bier 3.5/5. With another Fest Ale still on. Thank the Lord for a low Guest Ale turnover Spoons. The Malcolm Uphill, Caerphilly.
Killanny Red - Brehon - 4.5% ABV. B+ and a bit and a touch. I’m a day late 🍀 and this is really rather good. Malty and fruity #ale #beer #bier 3.4/5. Brewed in the UK by Adnams. Hats off to Spoons for not choosing a Stout for St Patrick’s Day. This is really worth hunting down.
Märzen - Fyne Ales - 4.6% ABV. B+ and a bit. Fest Ales still on. A lot going on here and not your standard Märzen. Like it #ale #beer #bier 3.3/5. Scottish interpretation of a German Brew on St Patrick’s Day ☘️ , drunk in Wales. Really like that. Beer is International. image
