It’s been a decent while since I last had a North Brewing Co. beer and this one is another from Tesco’s latest release of craft beer. This is ‘Ornament’ a 4.1% ABV Kveik IPA. You may be wondering “what on earth Kveik means?”, well so was I and it turns out to be Norwegian for a type of domesticated yeast. All beer has yeast and … Continue reading Beer Review: Ornament – North Brewing Co.
Today’s review is a beer from Lidl that isn’t part of their new range. It’s a staple in the shops I believe and after some digging I believe it is a contract brew from Eichbaum Brewery in Mannheim, Germany. This is the Session IPA from a series of beers called ‘Steam Brew’. A whole premise and backstory has been created for the six beers in … Continue reading Beer Review: Steam Brew (Session IPA) – Eichbaum
I’ve actually written a review on a Sunday! It’s Stout Sunday so naturally I’ve gone for one of the new stouts in the latest Tesco range. It’s been quite a while since I last had a London Beer Factory brew and this one is a big beer. At a whopping 9.2% ABV ‘Zia’ is a Tiramisu Pastry Stout. I’ve not had a pastry stout before … Continue reading Beer Review: Zia – London Beer Factory
A slightly momentous review today as it is my 100th! Since starting this little blog I have now reviewed over 100 craft beers which is quite incredible to think. Writing the reviews (as well as drinking the beers) has become a really fun and creative hobby. I haven’t really planned for anything special but to mark the occasion I thought I’d try one of the … Continue reading Beer Review: Shoop – Salt Beer Factory x Pomona Island
Lidl have a new range of beers back in right now! They’ve gone for an all Scottish line up again at incredibly good value, with an average price of just £1.79 a beer. I thought I’d kick off the new range reviewing a beer from my favourite brewery from the last release, Loch Lomond, and their new beer, appropriately named ‘Zoom Time’. It’s a rarely … Continue reading Beer Review: Zoom Time – Loch Lomond Brewery
Another lovely little gift from a friend at work this is another not to distant brewery based out of Dalston, in London in the form of 40FT Brewery. Named after the fact that when they started, they began brewing out of two 20ft shipping containers, this is a can of ‘Dalston Sunrise’ part of their core range. It’s a Hazy Pale Ale at 4.4% ABV … Continue reading Beer Review: Dalston Sunrise – 40ft Brewery
I was in the Peak District very recently with one of my dear friends and while I tried to put beer on the back burner I couldn’t help but pick up a couple from local brewers Peak Ales. The first beer is their classic Golden Ale but this review today is something a little funkier. ‘Cebula’ is part of the breweries experimental ‘Off Peak’ series … Continue reading Beer Review: Cebula – Peak Ales
Treated myself to another beer from my local bottle shop with a completely new brewery for me. This brew is from UnBarred Brewery based out of Brighton and is part of their Single Hop Single Fruit (SHSF) series and is a NEIPA featuring Citra and passion fruit as the stars of the show. I quite like the idea of focusing down on one of each … Continue reading Beer Review: SHSF Citra & Passionfruit – UnBarred Brewery
Today’s beer was a lovely gift from a very generous friend! It’s actually a new brewery for me in the form of London Fields based out of Hackney in East London. This is ‘3 Weiss Monkeys’ which in my opinion is a great play on words considering the style used is a White IPA. The only other White IPA I’ve had was from Loch Lomond … Continue reading Beer Review: 3 Weiss Monkeys – London Fields Brewery
Finally getting around to trying this beer I picked up from my local brewery, Pretty Decent Beer Company. Was actually meant to review this with a friend but I accidentally gave him a can of their Pilsner so unfortunately I will have to wait on doing that review! This is a recently new brew for them and is a can of their ‘Citra Sour’ coming … Continue reading Beer Review: Citra Sour – Pretty Decent Beer Co.
