We are taking part in Stout Sunday today with another from the Lidl Scottish Beer Fest range! This is from Barney’s Beer in Edinburgh and is their Marshmallow Milk Stout. At the 2018 Scottish Beer Awards this stout won the Bronze Award, so I’d argue expectations are certainly slightly higher. Coming in it a strong 7.4% ABV let’s get into this review! The beer pours … Continue reading Beer Review: Marshmallow Milk Stout – Barney’s Beer
Trying to focus on the Lidl reviews at the moment to give people a chance to buy them before they disappear from the stores! We’ve had a couple of Drygate beers at this point and this one is ‘Tone Burst’ a Rhubarb Berliner Weisse. In accordance to the style, it is a a low 3.2% ABV which might be the lowest so far on the … Continue reading Beer Review: Tone Burst – Drygate Brewing Co.
I have a big backlog of beers at the moment and I’ve bumped this one up the review queue for two main reasons. Firstly, it’s another Lidl Beer Fest brew. Secondly, check out that glass! I am so lucky to be surrounded by some amazing friends, two of which sent me this incredible engraved stem glass under my Instagram handle. I couldn’t wait for the … Continue reading Beer Review: NEIPA (Galaxy/Amarillo) – Stewart Brewing
It’s an exciting time in the craft beer world as it is Lidl’s Scottish Craft Beer Festival! By the time I get through reviewing and uploading them all I imagine it will be over so if you are feeling adventurous get down to one as soon as possible. Thankfully taking a risk on these beers wont break the bank as even the large 440ml cans … Continue reading Beer Review: Lost in Mosiac – Loch Lomond Brewery
The last beer I reviewed while on holiday in glorious Cornwall. This is the second beer from Fourpure’s Globetrotter bundle. This is Jazz Age; a 7.4% ABV Espresso Martini Stout. The combination of those two things on paper seems like a match made in heaven in all honesty. I chose to bring this one down for my friends to try as, despite many not being … Continue reading Beer Review: Jazz Age – Fourpure Brewing Co.
The penultimate ale that my friend Matty gave me but the last that I drank while on holiday. I’ve got one more tucked away at home waiting for an opportune moment. This is another new South West brewery, Exmoor Ales, with their flagship Exmoor Gold. Touted as the first modern Golden Ale first brewed in 1986, these are the slightly more old school beers that … Continue reading Beer Review: Exmoor Gold – Exmoor Ales
Fourpure, a month or so ago, released their ‘Globetrotter’ bundle. Six new beers loosely based on various locations around the world. Most of these beers were super funky so I brought a couple with me to Cornwall for my friends to have a go at as well. First up is ‘Carnival’, inspired of course by Rio de Janeiro it is a 4.5% ABV Coconut and … Continue reading Beer Review: Carnival – Fourpure Brewing Co.
You know you have a good friends when they not only buy beers thinking of you, but also buy beers thinking of your Dad. One of the selection my mate Matty bought for me, he went out of his way to grab a gluten free beer so I could relay back to my old man! This is another new brewery for me in the form … Continue reading Beer Review: Wild Hare – Bath Ales
There has been an absence of posts recently. It has certainly not been because I’ve lost interest I can assure you but I have been on a wonderful holiday with some amazing university friends. And while it may be hard to believe some things really are more important than beer so I haven’t uploaded daily like usual. However, my friends are very supportive of my … Continue reading Beer Review: Otter Ale – Otter Brewery
Nothing clears up running out of beer like more beer. And there are few better beers than a Northern Monk. This is another from their range at Morrisons which usually knocks it out of the park. ‘It’s Great Up North’ is a pale ale coming in at 4.5% ABV so will be looking for something similar to their amazing ‘Faith’. Pours a pale gold with … Continue reading Beer Review: It’s Great Up North – Northern Monk
