Paradise Found
has an elegant aromatic profile, with considerably brown sugar
sweetness, a whiff of coffee, and some dark chocolate. The beer has a
creamy and entirely agreeable mouthfeel that supports a flavour rich in
java and a golden rummy sweetness. The back end is bitter, with
chocolate and coffee grit, and that provides excellent balance. There is
also a very slight smokiness.
While I’d have
liked to see a bit more suds atop mount Paradise Found, there isn’t all
that much else to critique. It’s a really lovely, balanced and
interesting little brew that walks a line between classic English ale
flavours and some quirky new world elements. The strength to flavour
ratio is good, and the total result is positive.
Rating: 8.5 out of 10.
