A malt driven Altbier, the only thing letting Candy Kaiser down is that it’s so bloody one dimensional.
Sure there’s a soft treacle tart and honey malt and some digestive biscuits, but the hops are almost nonexistent save for a quick sharp slap of lemon juice and some herbal greenery that disappears far too quickly from a beer that has the wimpiest toffee aroma.
In fact Candy Kaiser smells a lot like a homogenous supermarket Best Bitter, and I know that’s not what they meant it to be.
Nah, I don’t like it.
