Terrapin Beer Co
Reviewed by RD
5.0% ABV
Colour: Pale gold body with a few bubbles. Finished off with a healthy white foam head.
Nose: A rather complex aroma for such a “standard” style. Bready malt, fresh apricots, toffee, butter and sweet Acacia honey.
Taste: At first I got smooth honey, not as sweet as it was on the nose. Crisp biscuit malt, pale stone fruits then a cleansing spurt of carbonation before a brief hop profile of cascade hops. The aftertaste is refreshing with a mild spice similar to ginger this probably was result of the Mount Hood hops.
Overall Experience: I really enjoyed this beer. I drank this on a Friday whilst preparing dinner. I wanted an uncomplex easy drinking beer to quench my thirst and relax after work. This certainly did the job. I picked this up at Utobeer on a trip to London. I’m a keen follower of Mark’s video beer reviews over at BikeBeerBBQ and this is his local brewery. He’s always drinking Terrapin’s more specialist or seasonal output and making me very envious. I hope more Terrapin beers manage to swim their way across the Atlantic.
