Very Bad Elf

Name: Very Bad Elf
Brewed In/Type: England / Ale (English)
Bought at/Price Binny's / $4.99 pint
Dennis: Purchased specifically because it was a gimmicky/cute looking Christmas beer, this is the first beer from the brewery we've ever had. Like a lot of English ales, this comes across as malty with a slight bitter twinge almost like an ESB. However, unlike most English ales, this sneaks up on you with a 7.5% alcohol content. Little showing of hops makes this a malt lovers choice, without the tang of a dobble bock. I wouldn't mind trying the next beer up in the series...Seriously Bad Elf.
Jen: This brew comes across both sweet and bitter at the same time. The body comes across with tastes of some dark fruits and nutty malts. It is than followed with some decent hop bitterness from the fuggle hops. This isn't too bad and easy to drink. This is just a fun brewto have. (Especially is you are on the naughty list)!
Rating: 3.5 out of 5
