Supplier: Flavourly
Another London based brewery set up in 2013. This is one of their core range, obviously it is an amber ale. It is based on the amber ales that they had in Colorado. This beer is flavoured with Willamette hops, I served this chilled.

Appearance: A browner amber colour with a medium cream coloured head.
Aroma: Metallic with some hop notes, a very very faint hint of roasted notes.
Flavour: Lots of berry notes mixed with a load of roasted chocolate notes.
Body: Medium body but with a bit too much carbonation.
Aftertaste: There is the berry notes but they sort of turn into that artificial note that you get in children's berry flavoured medicine, a little chalky.
Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 6, would have been a 7 if it weren't for the slightly disappointing aftertaste. The flavours aren't the usual.
Price Range: Part of the box of 8 beers was £12, making it £1.50 for a 330ml can; a good price, it's worth getting for something a little bit different.
Food Pairings: The classic combo is berries and chocolate; so I would say a chocolate mouse would go well with it, preferably dark chocolate and not too heavy.
