Had of them, actually quite enjoyed it. Reminded me of the Peroni Doppio Malto (as it's predominantly got a light, smooth, slightly sweet and quite deep malty flavour, and isn't over carbonated) but 5% instead of 8% (or something like that) - recommended. Going to have a second in between other beers. ...only downside is it's a Carlsberg brand but hey, it's a nice beer. The name of it sounds lmore like an Aldi/Lidl rip off of Birra Moretti Sure they sell that on draft up at the rooster Inn, or did before lockdown 2.

There are a few in the range, different numbers, so possibly the same brand but a different beer. I dunno. Maybe I'll have.one tomorrow and hate it CWC1983 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had one and absolutely loved it, the other is in reserve for a rainy day. I’ve also still got one each of the rum and ginger and the mole poblano left. Superb beers, so rich. Just delicious.

TuffLuff Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Been meaning to mention this for weeks, but the Saltaire Triple Choc stout is probably my favourite drink at the moment. Found in my local coop on the 2 for £4 deal. Think the Dancing Duck stout is on the same deal and is also very good May Contain Nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found it much better than peroni because one pint of it didn’t give me a stinking headache and hangover May Contain Nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Assuming Derbyshire and Staffs are going to be in Tier 3 (or Tier 2 at best) I'm stocking up on beer. Popped into the Dancing Duck Brewery Saturday morning and picked up a couple of 5litre kegs, 1 x "Ay Up", a refreshing Pale Ale at 3.9% and 1 x "22", a best bitter at 4.3%. First time I've been there, very friendly and knowledgeable people who were happy to let you have a mooch round and explain there brewing processes to you. Sad that its situated directly behind what was the Swan and Salmon pub on Ashbourne Road, its now a shop ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
