   Flying Colours is the 2nd beer from Jumpship Brewing.  A small Scottish brewery that only brews No/Low Alcohol beers.  Jumpship was set up by Sonja Mitchell in 2019 after she left her job in marketing . In Sonjas own words  “I love beer. I love sailing. I don’t like hangovers.”. Sonja gets to combine her 2 passions through Jumpship, with the beer they brew and the nautical flag themed art of the cans. After the success of their first beer Yardarm lager Jumpship decided to brew a 2nd beer. This first went out to a lucky selection of 100 people to get their feedback and after the great feedback and a little refining of the recipe Flying colours was born. Flying colours is described as "quite punchy with a kick of lime and luscious tropical fruit aromas" Brewery:       Jump Ship Brewing                Beer:      Flying Colours Style:              Pale Ale                                   Hops:            Armarillo,    El Dorado Country:        Scotland               

This is my 2nd beer from West Berkshire Breweries Solo range.  The 1st being the standard pale ale which came across as a nice fruity pale ale.  Now to see what their with Peach pale ale is like. It pours with a nice orangey colour very clear lots of small bubbles.  On the nose you get a fruity aroma not overly peachy but you definitely get a small amount.  The taste is different to what I was expecting a lot more of a malty biscuit base to this beer than I thought it would have.  There is a little something else there on the finish but I wouldn't pick it out as peach.  Decent thickness in the mouth feel.   Not a bad little beer but nothing really jumps out at me.  Certainly if you are looking for something with a lot of peach flavour this isn't it. 5/10 This was purchased from Sober Sauce but also available from most good online alcohol free retailers.

The 6th Beer in the Nothing but the rain beer from Ridgeside  is a pale ale with Sabro and chinnok Hops.  It pours with  a very pale colour with quite a lot of bubbles to it.  On the nose you get a bit of a tropical smell with a hint of coconut.  It has a nice tropical juice flavour to it with hints of citrus fruits similar to what I have tasted in other beers using Sabro.  The taste is very Subtle though and feels like it needs to be brought out a bit more.   6/10 Review by Tim Jenkins This beer was purchased from SoberSauce  but is also available from all good Alcohol Free Beer suppliers.  

  Pour: Nice caramel Colour with a decent small head.   Smell:  overly sweet malty smell and to be honest does not smell very pleasant. Taste:  well there is lots of malt and  then a sweet finish.   Overall:  Not really a fan of this one its a bit too malty for my liking. Score: 4/10 Review by Tim Jenkins    

  This was very bland and didnt really get any flavours coming across 4/10
