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.
Today’s beer review sees us return to something I’ve not done in a while. Well two things actually: a low alcohol beer and a beer from Thornbridge! Always a bit apprehensive picking up AF beers not because I have an inherent dislike to them but more because they often aren’t that great. This is ‘Zero Five’, a low alcohol pale ale named as such because … Continue reading Beer Review: Zero Five -Thornbridge Brewery
It’s been a while since a beer review and they’ve been a bit sporadic this week as a result of me being on holiday. Can’t have everything revolving around beer now can we (although I did pick pick up a couple of brews while I was in the Peak District)! Today’s beer is from acclaimed brewers Neon Raptor based out of Nottingham. Another pick up … Continue reading Beer Review: All Signs Point To Fort Lauderdale – Neon Raptor Brewing Co.
Another BrewDog beer for an even more belated stout Sunday today, another from Morrisons new craft beer range and another nitro twist on a previously released beer. This is ‘Choco Libre’ an 8.2% Mexican Hot Chocolate Stout. The name is likely a pun on Mexican wrestling Lucha Libre but I like to think it’s also a nod to one of my family’s favourite movies the … Continue reading Beer Review: Choco Libre (Nitro Edition) – BrewDog
Another little takeaway beer from the folks at Tracks, one of my local railway arch bars. Almost all the reviews so far have focused on craft beer in the UK but I believe this will be the first beer from the continent, specifically Germany. Quite a popular brand, this is Rothaus, who predominantly produce wheat beers. For this review we’ve got ‘Weizenzäpfle’ at 5.4% ABV. … Continue reading Beer Review: Weizenzäpfle – Rothaus
Today’s beer is another gracious gift from my grandparents and as such another brewery from up in Scotland. This beer is from Harviestoun Brewery. ‘Bitter and Twisted’ is part of their core range and is a golden ale at a lovely sessionable 4.2% ABV. Probably my favourite traditional style of beer, I always look forward to trying a new one. Pours a crystal clear gold … Continue reading Beer Review: Bitter & Twisted – Harviestoun Brewery
Today’s beer is indeed from Morrisons but not part of their new range. ‘Clairvoyance’ is a double dry hopped IPA and has been on their shelves from quite a while now. This beer is brewed by Magic Rock a new brewery for the blog but one I have dabbled in before. I quite enjoy a DDH every now and then and at 7.2% ABV I’m … Continue reading Beer Review: Clairvoyance – Magic Rock Brewing
