So in the absence of any brewing going on just now, I’ve gone back into craft ales. I picked up these new new beers from the supermarket the other day and they were both great brews. Both are from the Eagle Brewery and the sticky toffee one was a malty ale with a strong caramel note (which I assumed is the toffee element of the name) while the banana beer was more of a blonde ale. Now I have a LOT of time for the banana beer. The fruit note went just perfect with the malt/hop flavours and I was very jealous, as I’ve failed to get a similar result when I’ve tried getting banana flavours into my beer. A very nice drop and I will be definitely giving this beer a go again.
