Monty Pythons’s Holy Grail ale
by KFAZ

So the label says Monty Python’s Holy Grail Ale on it..with the GR crossed out to make it Holy Ale…but yeah…not so much holy. But I could see where it fits in with whats under that on the bottle saying Tempered over burning witches!

Brewery Hometown: Black Sheep Brewery - UK200005-holyail.jpg
Appearance Came out with a quite a bit of head on top, kinda off white. Took a while to settle, was playing rock band while it settled and it definitely looked like a sloppy mess when it settled, random thick lacing all over the cup and the head didn’t settle flat, it look like a mountain range in my cup. A golden amber color. Pretty strong carbonation going on.
Aroma: Have a cold, but the smell wasn’t too strong. Kinda mellow. Kinda like honey with an earthy tone to it. Almost like cider.
Taste: Has a bitter sour taste to it over all. A honey applish taste. The end is very earthy…almost like burning witches in shrubbery. Had a lot more to the smell then the taste. Kinda weak.
Alcohol: 4.7 %
Drink one or all?: Well I bought just one, and if I bought another. I just wouldn’t open it and leave it as a novelty decoration. Just not worth it
Cost: $3.50 /1 bottle ( 1 pt 0.9 fl. oz)

Overall: 6.5 It was alright for a novelty beer. Not really worth drinking again besides the fact is says holy ail on it. Worth of shot if you like Monty Python
