La duck 440ml 5%
I preferred this over all of the other Duck variants. This was more of a NEIPA than the NEIPA of Les Duck. So much more fruitiness.

perch rock 440ml 4.3%

​A perfectly serviceable hazy pale ale. It pours a lovely soft yellow and is incredibly easy-drinking, with a mellow, smooth body that goes down too fast. The citrus and tropical fruit notes are there, but they’re too subtle. It needs a bigger hop punch to elevate it beyond 'nice and refreshing.'
​The Verdict: It’s a clean, reliable, light-bodied session b**r. Great value for a backyard pint, but not complex enough to seek out otherwise. It does the job, but it’s just missing that extra layer of flavour excitement.

.brewing hard truth 500ml 8%

A superb showcase for Nelson Sauvin hops. It's juicy, soft, and very thick, pouring with huge notes of white grape, gooseberry, and crushed fruit. It manages to be complex and dangerously easy-drinking for 8%. Just misses a 5th star as the fruit flavours a a little too low

500ml 4.7%
​"Still hits the spot after all these years"
​"Is it the most complex craft ale in the world? No. But does it do exactly what it says on the tin? Absolutely.
​Pouring this glass of 'Newkie Brown' was like stepping into a time machine. It has that classic sweet, nutty flavor profile—caramel, a bit of biscuit, and that smooth finish I remember so well. It’s incredibly easy drinking.
​Honestly, the taste just takes me straight back to my youth, sitting on the park bench with my mates including having a laugh and putting the world to rights. It’s simple, reliable, and tastes like good memories. It might not be a fancy micro-brew, but it’s a legend for a reason."

blackbird 440ml 6.7%
This stout is a genuinely nice stout that hits all the typical notes for the style—dark, rich, and satisfyingly malty. It delivers on the classic characteristics you look for, with notes of roasted coffee and chocolate coming through beautifully.
​What's most impressive, though, is how incredibly easy it is to drink. The 6.7% ABV is dangerously well-hidden, going down so smoothly that you could easily mistake it for something much lighter. It's a testament to the brewer's skill that such a robust b**r is so approachable and goes down effortlessly. Highly recommended for a satisfying, surprisingly smooth experience.
