Greene King Strong Suffolk Ale

Today offering is vintage ale blend from Suffolk



 


 
 
Appearance:

Ruby red with off white head that lasts

Aroma:

Oak and spicy with a ferric bitterness and a fortified wine smell like Madeira

Taste:

ferric bitterness at first then a vinous fruit nature comes through and a slight sourness. The finish is malty at first and then a earthy hoppiness balances a vinous sweetness the slight sourness also persists.

Overall:

I have had this before, last year and it was more sour and also more complex in taste last time. It is not a bad just last year was better.
 
7.0/10
