Renaissance Stonecutter Scotch Ale VS Wigram Harvard Honey Ale

Renaissance Stonecutter Scotch Ale

What They Say:
A perfectly balanced, hearty ale that is one of the flagship beers of our range. Nine malts are blended to produce layers of caramel, toffee, liquorice, chocolate and roasty flavours and these are balanced by a tart raisiny fruitiness that gradually gives way to a lingering dry finish. Rich, full bodied, warming and moreish, Stonecutter Scotch Ale pairs well with venison, roast beef or lamb, or the heartiest casseroles and stews. For dessert try it with a creme brulee or, of course, Scottish shortbread.
What She Says:
Quite smooth and mellow. Had a slightly strong flavour. Overall very good.
What He Says:
Smooth, unoffensive. Mellow. Softly malty, hints of chocolate.

Wigram Brewing Co Harvard Honey Ale

What They Say:
English ale malt, a top fermenting ale yeast - Don't be fooled, this is no ordinary ale. Infused into this beer is certified organic Bush honey, giving a truly distinctive flavour and aroma, enjoy.
What She Says:
Quite a sweet flavour from the honey. While the hops are strong the honey takes the bitterness out and it is very nice.
What He Says:
Smooth ale, hops flavourful but not too bitter, maybe due to the honey. Not much of a honey flavour apart from the occasional aftertaste. Rich dark amber colouring.
