Andrew | | 08 Jan 2011 | It wasn't off so this rating of poor isn't necessarily anything to do with the pub's keeping of the beer (although the beer was a bit lack lustre). There was a horrible toasted peanut smell to the beer and a harsh reedy toasted-peanut bite to the flavour. The Master Brew had this too so I don't know if the malt Shep's were using was a bit funny or something. |
Ian | | 24 Dec 2009 | Best Sheps beer by some way. |
Andrew | | 24 Dec 2009 | This was really very good. |
Ian | | 23 Nov 2008 | The last two years, I have not been particularly impressed with this which is a shame as the Shep seasonals are always pretty reliable. This year though it was back to top form. That kind of Turkish Delight fruit flavour, the condition, the depth of flavours, the slight hoppiness on the end. All excellent. I can't remember the last time I so actively enjoyed a Sheps beer. |
Ian | | 20 Nov 2005 | As close as a beer can be to a 5/5 but not quite achieving it. Admittedly this is my favourite Sheps beer, but this was particulary good. Mixture of turkish delight fruit and choc malts with good hoppy bitterness. Deep chestnut colour with thin beige head. Body is quite soft before more rich dark fruits kick in with choc/coffee and some yeast. The hops are fresh and stunning |

Andrew | | 21 Oct 2009 | Rounded slightly washed out flavours. Nice but not as good as the last time I had it. |
Andrew | | 28 Sep 2009 | Reddish. Very tangy and fruity with a leafy hop bite at the end - but importantly not as overpowering as last year. |
Andrew | | 24 Nov 2008 | This wasn't how I remembered it. It was a deep red colour and the aroma was of red fruit as before but the finish was quite astringent with a coffee-grounds bitterness to it. The red cherry flavours in the body were there but you had to fight the astringent coffee-grounds bitterness to appreciate them. It was good but maybe if it mellowed a bit it would be better. It was also £3.05 a pint! |
Andrew | | 05 Oct 2007 | What a cracking pint. Tangy and sweet with good earthy hops. |
Andrew | | 28 Oct 2006 | The first 3 or 4 gups of this were excellent but as the pint sank it became a bit lifeless and sickly. Plenty of caramalised malt with, I guess, fuggles as the hop. Well ballanced and good |
Ian | | 28 Oct 2006 | First of the season for me of this beer. Attractive brown colour with amber edges and lasting beige head. Served at a good temperature. Malty fruit aroma, bit of dry choc, plums. Fullish in mouth, bit of juicyness. Quite drinkable. I remember it being fruitier and not quite so dry. Especially on end. |

Ian | | 16 Sep 2009 | After a couple of years in the wilderness this is back on form. Shep yeast on aroma with some hop and some malt. Then this burst of turkish delight fruit in the mouth and then this hit of hops. Good biting hop which is bitter and has some resins. Shockingly good. Well served and very fresh. Great condition. Loved it. |
