Spoons guest ales: East Side

Time again for another guest ale at spoons. Today is the last day I shall be in Aber for a while so thought a pint was needed to celebrate.

Today's pint is east side cream which a dark strong colour and a strong flavour. Its a nice 5% and only £2 here.

It has a rather strong and fruity taste with a bitter after taste. It is reasonably smooth and easy to drink. This would go very well with spicy dishes.

Overall a well bodied drink with nice flavour and colour. Overall I shall have to give it an 8/10. Definitely recommend if you see it at your local.

Spoons guest ales: Torch Light

Its a nice day and revision going brilliantly so thought I would treat myself to a beer and Burger. This beer is torch light at a reasonable 4.4%.

The smell is pretty much non existant and the colour is a clear and light brown.

Its flavour is very light and subtle with a tangy aftertaste that dissapears quickly. There's a slight fruit taste when in the mouth and is quickly followed by a mild malty taste.

Not the best ale I have had but very palatable. Ideal for food as it doesn't overpower with flavour.  Recommend having after had a few. 5/10 nice but not much flavour.

Spoons guest ales: Hop Bomb

Well its a sunny day in Wales, believe it or not, so I have decided perfect time for another guest ale.

Today is hop bomb at a reasonable 5% alcohol content. The smell is light and fruity and the colour is a light browny orange which is slightly cloudy.

The taste at first is a bit sharp but after swallowing there is a string bitter and fruity flavour. The taste stays for a bit but gets bitter over time.

Overall a very nice piny for a warm sunny day, you will find yourself constantly sipping at it. Its definitely best served cold and only for those who like fruity and bitter pints. For this pint I shall give it a 7.5/10.

Spoons guest ales: Diamond

Its guest ale time so thought would write about it to my blog. Gives me something to write about.

Its a light colour with a fruity smell. They taste however is like bitter water. It seems to lack any distinct taste or body.

At 5 percent I was expecting more flavour but lacks any umph.

Overall a 5 out of 10.
