Looking forward to baron rating Slurp ales

I last reviewed some ales sent through from Slurp back in Febuary 2012 so it was a very pleasant surprise when a year later they got in touch to ask if I would like to review another selection of ales. Delivery was fast and the beers well-packed so they all arrived in perfect condition, this is what was in the box:



 Old Dominion Brewing Co.
  • Beach House Golden Pilsner - 5.2% Bohemian Pilsner, brewed with all natural ingredients, is crisp and refreshing, making it a perfect beach companion
  • Hop Mountain Pale Ale - 6.6% rich, red ale made in the American Pale Ale style, our Pale Ale has strong hop character, medium, dry finish and floral hop aroma
  • Oak Barrel Stout - 6.1% stout brewed using smoked and peated malts to create an intricate malt foundation. Our method of dry hopping with vanilla beans and oak chips pushes the depth of this stout’s flavor spectrum even further
Fordham Brewing Co. 
  • Copperhead - 5.2% Düsseldorf style Altbier blends caramelized malted barley with pronounced hop character to create a subtle copper hue. Copperhead Ale is famous for its signature balanced flavor & impeccable smoothness
  • Tavern Ale [baron rating 4/5] - 6.1% American Pale Ale’s hop profile is complimented with an ample amount of malt flavor. It’s cold-conditioned on Fresh whole leaf Cascade hops creating an unmistakable citrus-like aroma
  • Wisteria Wheat - 5.1% classic unfiltered wheat ale. Wisteria Wheat is a medium body beer with a soft, velvety carbonation and a wheaty finish
Look out for 'baron ratings' for these Slurp ales soon, and a big thank you to Gemma (@SlurpBeer) for sending them through to me!
