#9 - Rudgate Brewery - Mrs Brewer

I have, on many occasions, enjoyed the work of the Rudgate Brewery, but Mrs Brewer is something of an abomination.  Indeed, the phrase 'omnishambles' springs to mind.  At 3.7% it doesn't taste delicate, but rather, watery.  Instead of flavors of toasted oats and a 'spicy blackcurrant aroma' all that comes across is a touch of malt mixed with an odd sickly-sweet taste reminiscent of over-ripe fruit, long past its prime.  Manning the pumps on a recent evening, I gave out ten tasters only one customer of which decided to purchase a pint - probably out of misplaced guilt.  I wouldn't drink this beer again if it were free.  Being generous, 2/10.
