Hoggley's Mill Lane Mild
80A very drinkable and satisfying dark mild with clean flavours and excellent body for its strength. A product of a Northamptonshire micro that is turning out some fine bottle-conditioned beers.
Hoggley's Reservoir Hogs
75Full of pleasant, fruity hop flavours, if just a little thick on the palate. The roasted notes in the finish arrive a
little unexpectedly.
Hoggley's Solstice Stout
76A full-bodied stout with plenty of good roasted grain flavours but, on this occasion, not quite enough carbonation.
