    Seriously? They're completely different imo. Moretti is a grand lager, but that's it - not too much character in it.

    The closest beer I'd liken Moretti to is Sam Adams; it's a little more malted than Adams and is a grand mid week beer if you want to slop out and take it handy with minimum fuss.

    Maybe it's better than I remember!

    Shepherd Neane Gouldings Summer Ale @ €1.49 per bottle: not tried it but others here seem to not like it - maybe stay clear!

    I second the last part of your statement ... stay clear


    The Summer Ale is just that a very light ale with a bit of sparkle, Think of lightly hop flavoured carbonated water :(. Only really good for quenching your thirst ...don't be expecting a a taste sensation.


    Shepherd Neane 4-4-2 Hop Beer @ €1.49 per bottle Sounds interesting - probably worth a punt and if you like it, stock up!

    Don't know where the ten varieties of hop went to but this is just a step up from the Summer Ale.

    Both disappointing for me but if you like light tasting beers then fine.

    Tried the 4-4-2 there last night.

    Quite similar to the Goldings, wafer thin with a strange slightly metallic hoppiness. Not much to it at all at all. 10 hops me arse.:rolleyes:

    Infact, it tastes like a generic Sheperds neame beer. There all very samey. I bought a few so I'll give it another go at the weekend!!
    Maybe it'll taste better then!:cool:

    Has anyone had a Sheperds Neame beer on Cask? I'd be curious to know how the experience was?

    Maybe they meant 10 hops? like literally 10 hops used in the entire brewing process.

    To be fair, they are both reasonable beers though they are not world beaters nor do they come across as same. Neither are real ales or crafted beers but compared to Bud/Heineken then they are spots ahead, not that say a lot about them :)
