Creature Comforts Brewing Co. Vujà Dé: Landlord
What the brewers say
“Landlord uses American ingredients to pay homage to Timothy Taylor’s Landlord as the quintessential English pale ale.”
What our panel thought
“Grainy, bready, lightly toasted malt aroma. Medium hops aroma, woody and lightly spicy. Smooth, slightly sweet malt flavor. Hop bitterness is firm, slightly resinous, fresh-tasting. Aftertaste shows more hops, some woody notes. Classic, easy-drinking, thirst-quenching.”
What our editors thought
“Bits of honey, lime, and melon with a flinty mineral note behind them in the nose. Gentle but firm and smooth bitterness in the sip—herbal and woody, with very light floral overtones. Toasty and bready malt with a grain note. Fresh yet reserved, timeless, but with an unmistakeable newness.”
