Three Ravens Bronze (13/20)
A pretty good effort from a local. Old fashioned creamy ale malts with subtle metallic / iron notes. Almost has a tannic finish which drives decent length. Could be misplaced as an English bitter.
Monteiths Doppelbock Winter Ale (12/20)
Not bad and a reasonable interpretation of the style. Dark fruits and malts on the nose with cola hints. Similar to taste although the spices, as quoted on the label, become more pronounced. Plenty of dark malts and chocolate. Tails off on the finish.
Unibroue Chambly Noire (11/20)
This beer has been all over the shop. Tasted a few months ago it was completely dumb; thick syrupy cola, wholly disappointing. This sitting is better. Although the nose definitely shows sweeter cola characters and malts the palate is comparable dry with a porter-like dry roast note. Some sweetness does persistent and to be honest it remains on the dumb side.
