Today’s beer is from Manchester gluten free beer OGs First Chop. This beer is actually from an Christmas present I got my Dad. I gifted him a gluten free beer advent calendar with explicit mention that I was not planning on reviewing any. Instead he generously has given me a taste of this one to do a write up. ‘JAM’ is a mango pale ale … Continue reading Beer Review: JAM – First Chop
Another of the beers that my Dad picked up from Ghostfish Brewing Company via Taylor’s Gluten Free Beer Network (link down below). This is ‘Kick Step’ an IPA brewed in celebration of Washington State hops, where the brewery is based. So this is hopefully going to be a classic West Coast style beer and a little change from the New England IPA heavy reviews I’ve … Continue reading Beer Review: Kick Step – Ghostfish Brewing Company
The old man really enjoyed Bellfield Brewery’s ‘Lawless Village IPA’ so when he saw they had an offer for a mixed case of their gluten free beers he did not hesitate. Perhaps the most anticipated brew of the bunch was ‘Daft Days’ a 5.5% ABV porter. Dark beers seem to be in short supply in the gluten free beer sector and despite all his attempts … Continue reading Beer Review: Daft Days – Bellfield Brewery
My Dad was recently reminiscing about the last time he was in the US of A when he’d had a lovely gluten free beer in Seattle. After a bit of digging the brewery in question of said beer was Ghostfish. Distributed exclusively in the UK by Taylor’s Gluten Free Beer Network (https://taylorsgfbeers.co.uk/) at a very reasonable price, he bought himself a mixed case to reminisce. … Continue reading Beer Review: Ghost Pepper Saison – Ghostfish Brewing Company
Today’s beer is a lovely little gluten free number picked up from another bar under a railway arch. Seems to be the go to place to set a bar/restaurant at the moment! This beer is from a gluten free exclusive brewery Bellfield based up in Edinburgh, who only have a small core range. ‘Lawless Village’ is a 4.5% ABV IPA. Pours a clear amber colour … Continue reading Beer Review: Lawless Village – Bellfield Brewery
I popped into M & S the other day because I had heard they had a fairly large craft beer range. And the rumours were true! I was out at the time so could only pick up one beer and decided it would not only be a new brewery but a little treat for my Dad as well. This is ‘Bandit’ from London based Gipsy … Continue reading Beer Review: Bandit – Gipsy Hill Brewing Company
Today’s beer is all kinds of great! It’s a new brewery first and foremost. It’s a completely new style for me. It’s gluten free so the old man can have them. And lastly it’s dirty cheap from the Lidl Scottish Beer Fest! This is Manchester based First Chop and this is a can of their Syl Black IPA. Named after the artist Syl Johnson, who … Continue reading Beer Review: Syl – First Chop
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
The quest for gluten free beers for my Dad had taken a break, mainly because I couldn’t find any in the stores. However, I am pleased to announce it is back in the form of a new brewery! This beer is Goldfinch from Black Isle Brewery (no prizes as to where in Scotland they are from). It is their gluten free session IPA and the … Continue reading Beer Review: Goldfinch – Black Isle Brewery
Returning to the ever reliable Northern Monk today with a beer that will make my Dad very pleased! This is their Origin gluten free IPA. While the availability of gluten free beer is becoming increasingly wider, quality flavorful gluten free options are few and far between. Thankfully, I’ve noticed a trend in breweries having a token gluten free beer and while I’d like them to … Continue reading Beer Review: Origin – Northern Monk
