The Beer Advent Calendar 2012 - December 16th

I looked the collection of unopened beers today, and realised there were only 8 beers left in the calendar.  Damn it.
I'm almost certainly going to attempt a 'dryathalon' in January, and consume no alcohol at all.  Which I doubt will be a challenge - but it will mean I'll have to miss out on enjoying my slowly growing collection of scotch for a time.  I'm also planning on spending about 5 hours a week on a cross trainer to drop a few pounds before I get back to running.  It should be good.

Wychwood - King Goblin
Another familiar drink which like Old Crafty is only consumed during December.



Looks - Deep reddish brown, nice frothy head dissipated quickly.
Smells - Caramel, toffeefee, quite a subtle beer on the nose really.  Doesn't portray the depth of the taste.
Tastes - Sweet and malty to start, then you get a bit of hops, then it finishes with a dry bitter feel.  Nicely balanced flavours.

9/10
