Beer Review: How Do You Do Fellow Kids – S43 Brewery

Memes have become increasingly more widespread over the years and have now reached a point where beers are named after them. Titled after the Steve Buscemi 30 Rock meme ‘How Do You Do Fellow Kids’ this is an 8% Double IPA from S43 Brewery. This is my first beer from the County Durham based outfit but I’ve heard good things. Honestly, I did pick this … Continue reading Beer Review: How Do You Do Fellow Kids – S43 Brewery

Beer Review: Brut IPA – 10-4 Brewing (Aldi)

It has been a while since I’ve reviewed an own brand brew and I’ve decided to go with ALDI once more. This is from 10-4 Brewing one of a couple craft beer facades that they use. According to Untapped it appears to have been contract brewed with Hog’s Back whose Christmas beer I reviewed last year. It’s a Brut IPA so the expectation is for … Continue reading Beer Review: Brut IPA – 10-4 Brewing (Aldi)

Beer Review: Gelos – Alpha Delta x Drop Project

Today’s beer is another that I grabbed from Premier Hop. The only other Alpha Delta beer I’ve had was technically a Northern Monk collaboration. However, it was absolutely delicious and I’ve been on the hunt to get an Alpha Delta beer from the source itself! ‘Gelos’ is actually a collaboration as well but brewed by Alpha Delta in partnership with a new brewery for me … Continue reading Beer Review: Gelos – Alpha Delta x Drop Project

Beer Review: North Bridge – Thornbridge x North Brew Co.

A beer I’ve had for a little while now that I picked up in Tesco. A collaboration between Thornbridge and North Brew Co this beer is conveniently named ‘North Bridge’. This brew is a new style for me and perhaps a newer style for the wider world of beer in the form of a Mountain IPA. Supposedly a cross between the bitterness of a West … Continue reading Beer Review: North Bridge – Thornbridge x North Brew Co.

Beer Review: YES – First Chop

My search for quality alcohol free craft beer for an ever so slightly drier January than usual continues with today’s beer. ‘YES’ from First Chop is vegan, gluten free and 0.5% ABV which on paper does sound like the most boring combo for a beer. However, it’s always good to have an open mind when it comes to beer as anything can surprise you. A … Continue reading Beer Review: YES – First Chop

Beer Review: Odissi – Bang the Elephant

Been dipping into some of my ‘fancier’ beers the last couple of days and this is another one from the folks at Premier Hop. A new brewery again today in the form of Bang the Elephant from Langley Mill near Nottingham. I know you should never judge a book by the cover but I’d be a liar if I said I didn’t pick it up … Continue reading Beer Review: Odissi – Bang the Elephant

Beer Review: DDH Hooked on Citra – Cloudwater Brew Co.

Today’s review is from my Premier Hop Subscription order I made just before Christmas. Cloudwater Brew Co is a brewery I’ve seen have a lot of praise heaped on them for making fantastic beers. Based up in Manchester I decided on ‘DDH Hooked on Citra’ as my first taste. Naturally this beer is a Double Dry Hopped IPA with focus on the Citra hop. It … Continue reading Beer Review: DDH Hooked on Citra – Cloudwater Brew Co.

Beer Review: Southern DIPA – Pretty Decent Beer Co.

A beer from my local brewery Pretty Decent Beer Co! They’ve started a new winter double IPA series and this is number 2. ‘Southern DIPA’ was apparently brewed on the shortest day of the year and of course comes in at a hefty 7.7% ABV. The last DIPA was absolutely gorgeous so I’ve been looking forward to the next edition in this series eagerly. Visually … Continue reading Beer Review: Southern DIPA – Pretty Decent Beer Co.

Beer Review: ALD IPA // Punk IPA // Anti Establishment – BrewDog & Aldi

Happy New Year folks! Thank you to everyone who has read a post of mine over the last year. It’s been incredibly fun to do and has helped get me through some of these lockdown woes. To ring in 2021 I’ve got a special first post of the year: A Tale of Three Tinnies! A few months back there was some social media banter going … Continue reading Beer Review: ALD IPA // Punk IPA // Anti Establishment – BrewDog & Aldi

Beer Review: 20 Watt Moon – Verdant Brewing Co.

My one and only 10/10 beer was from Cornish brewers Verdant. Their Reading Colour IPA was absolutely stunning, so when the opportunity came around to pick up another of their beers, I didn’t hesitate. This is ’20 Watt Moon’ another IPA at 6.5% ABV. While I’m certainly not expecting perfection they’ve definitely set the bar high on the first try so I’d be lying if … Continue reading Beer Review: 20 Watt Moon – Verdant Brewing Co.
