Ho Ho Ho - ABV: 3.7%
Ho Ho Ho is a seasonal bitter from Blakemere Brewery near Northwich in Cheshire.
It's a very pale, light bitter with a slight head and quite a bit of carbonation. It poured well, the head lasted quite a while and for a bottle conditioned ale, there was surprisingly little sediment.
The aroma is also light with a bitter-sweetness of hops and a hint of fruitiness... Nice.
The flavour was much the same: pleasingly refreshing and light with fruity, hoppy tones and a dry, lingering finish. I'd enjoy this as a good session beer were it not for the slight fizz...
Verdict: 3/5
