Sharps Special 5%

This actually is a bottle i bought last year (2010) at their brewery shop, when i put this years purchases down to the shed i brought this one back up to the house.

Its a shame there was no more bottles in the brewery shop when i visited, i would have loved to have compared last years with a new one.

It is 5% bottled conditioned beer, 500mls. A lovely red brown colour, minimal head, an aroma  of rich toffee and a deep wine fruityness.
Taste is really good, a malt sweetness that is full but not heavy or coying, well balanced hop bitterness, plum, bready, a light drying quality. Perfectly carbonated too.

Very enjoyable pint indeed, pick some up if you see some.
