Pomona Island- Slop ; Kick off your Shoes & relax Your Socks, Stout (5.0% ABV)

Hello, and welcome back to the Eternal Hoptimists,

It’s Hump day! and what better way to get over it with a cracking can from Pomona Island.

Today Sam will be telling us how he overcame his hump day with a can of Slop?.. surely not!

  1. Name :  Slop – Kick off your Shoes & relax Your Socks
  2. Brewery: Pomona Island
  3. Hops : N/A
  4. Grain :  N/A
  5. Aroma : Strong scent of coffee & chocolate and maybe a hint of molasses.
  6. Appearance : Very dark and stormy when poured, settled very dark with a tight caramel head.
  7. Body : Medium bodied, well carbonated but poor head retention.
  8. Taste : Strong dark roasted coffee with a shot of chocolate a hint of tar at the back which left a warming malt taste at the end.

This one had some real wake up juice vibes, it was such a deep and warming coffee flavour it definitely would warm the cockles on a colder night. It certainly gets the okay from me, and at 5% it is very reasonable to have another, only issue is I only had one can!

Sam’s overall rating: 4.0/ 5.0
