Beer lover, enjoy thirds rather than pints - for more variety. Fake birthday - I’m obviously not THAT old! ?

Delicious! The last time I tried this beer was 2021, when I was shocked at the price - effectively £14 a pint (though I only tend to drink thirds). Now, in 2024, an 8% beer at less than £5 for a third seems crazy cheap! 😀😀

Freak Wave Sx

Slightly unusual flavoured NEIPA with Azacca hops in addition to the usual Citrus and Mosaic - decent fruitiness at 6.5% with more dankness coming through. Very enjoyable and would buy again.

Blow Out Sx

A pleasant fruit-burst NEIPA, with relatively little hoppy bitterness. Nicely rounded and balanced. Decent.

Ive had this previously at 2%. This new 3.7% version is very sour and puckering with a subtle fruit backdrop. It is quite vinegary though and I’m not convinced. Not sure I’d rush to buy more tbh as it’s a bit too tart / vinegary for me, but it was OK.

Beer Geek Flat White Sx

Strong coffee aroma. Massive coffee bitterness on first sip. It’s 7.5% and tastes boozy. Soft but very intense & slightly OTT flavours really make you pay attention! Good to try but it gets a bit overpowering with such an intense bitter coffee hit.

Loads of soft peach fruit on the nose. Not as powerful a taste as I was expecting though. Perfectly drinkable but not worth the £14 a pint price tag in BrewDog FFS !!!

Organoleptic Sx

Slightly thin and sour tasting for a NEIPA. Feels overpowered by the bitterness slightly with not enough of a fruity punch.

Kaffestout Sx

An impressive coffee stout - soft and smooth but with a solid bitter finish. Only 6% but it has a very boozy mouthfeel. Would definitely buy again. A very decent artisan stout.

Mikkeller Super Cool Sx

A super “chewy” thick double dry hopped NEIPA, with a consistency of murky apricot juice. Packed with flavour lingering fruitiness but with a nice better hoppy aftertaste. At 8.5% it packs a serious punch!

Ich Bin Raspberry Sx

A deliciously sour, clean and refreshing beer - packed with raspberry flavour (even though it’s only 2% raspberry) and just incredibly moreish. A really decent beer!! More please!!
