The nights are drawing in, the air is turning crisp, and somewhere in the shadows… the beers are getting stranger.
Welcome back, brave drinkers, to the Eternal Hoptimists’ Spook-o-ween Special, our annual descent into the cellar where 13 haunted brews await. Each one cursed with mystery, mischief, and maybe even a little magic. From ghostly pales to monstrous stouts, we’re once again lighting the lantern to uncover what goes burp in the night…
Tonight, our fearless reviewer Chris takes the lantern in hand, ready to face whatever lurks within the next can…
1. Name : Rosy ( 7/0% ABV)
2. Brewery: Otherworld Brewing, Edinburgh ( Scotland)
3. Hops : N/A
4. Grain : N/A
5. Aroma : Jammy, with lots of cherry
6. Appearance : Opaque red with a shocking tight white head when poured.
7. Body : Medium bodied, good level of carbonation and good head retention.
8. Taste: Super jammy upfront and deliciously biscuity at the back, its giving some real Bakewell tart kind of flavours. There is a touch of Tonka and Wood at the finish too.
This one had a ridiculous amount of flavour and depth, it was super enjoyable I would even go as far as saying it has been the best beer we have had all year.
The cherry flavours really came through but didn’t overpower the subtle flavours of the beer itself.
I asked Sam to get some more of these!
Chris’s Jack ‘O Rating is: 4.4/ 5.0
The glass lies empty… yet something stirs. From the shadows of the cellar, a hiss escapes, and the promise of another cursed brew claws its way closer. Tomorrow, we open the next chapter in our tale of 13 Haunted Beers. Lock your doors, ready your glasses — the horror is only just beginning…
