I agree that the Amber and the IPA are the best, but would put these at 3/5 personally. As for the others I found them particularly uninspiring with very little depth. <br /><br />The Amber initially seemed like a decent bitter, but drifted off very quickly with no afterthought. The IPA had the classic qualities, but I've been spoiled recently with far better versions and couldn't find any real excitement for it. <br /><br />I love the packaging of the bottles and think there could be a great beer in some of these. Perhaps they should concentrate on fine tuning 1 or 2 of these and expanding their range when they have been perfected.<br /><br />These are my own (and Matt's) humble opinions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
