Brains - Rev James 4.5%


Taste:  An ale that is so ubiquitous in South Wales I'm not sure how it escaped the net cast by the review trawler. It tastes of... well.. it tastes generic. But there is a taste! Licking a cast iron gate with a very slight  rusty burn. The texture of milk or creamflow (uh oh). Easy to drink - but so is plain old water.

Appearance:  Red dog fur that been in the sea off Morfa Sands, Port Talbot.

Would you buy 2?  In certain pubs it would be a yes.

Would you buy 4?  In bottled form, it would be a no - I've always hope for more from ale

Rating (out of 7):  3 * * * Easy to drink - because it's a touch too bland.

I tend to agree but I know someone who considers it the greatest beer ever. Go figure!
