Day 157: New England ipa by cloud water and brewdog

Day 157: New England ipa by cloud water and brewdog

This brew dog and cloud water collaboration came out and it seemed like everyone was writing their two sense about it. So i naturally got round to trying this New England ipa a long time after all that. Brewdog in my opinion are responsible for making the idea of craft beer mainstream and cloud water have been producing beers that increasingly impress me. So what will this beer bring, the big…

Day 156: Brave by boss brewing

This American ipa is from boss brewing, calling your brewery boss is a bold proclamation and fills me with thoughts that I’m going to enjoy what’s in the glass, can boss brewery deliver? It came in a 330ml can with an APV 5.5%. It was Golden in colour with a lively 2 finger head. It had Toffee on the nose with a taste that started off sweet with this explosion of bitter aftertaste. This was a…

Day 155: Golden ale by Guinness

So I’ve wrote about the brewers project a lot on this site, that big marketing push the brewery did many years ago that never went anywhere and produced a whole bunch of mediocre beers. I think it’s plain to see that this disappeared because they just weren’t selling to anyone. This golden ale came in a 500ml bottle with an APV of 4.5%. It was Toffee in colour with single finger head. Like most…

Day 154: Brahma by AB bev

So tonight we take a look at another larger from AB bev. This one from Brazil and one I’ve never had before. It came in a 330 ml can with a 4.3% APV. It smells awful. A real off smell with this one and I’m not wanting to drink this beer. Surprisingly it was Very foamy in the glass with some actual carbonation. It was very clear in the glass with a look of golden water.If that was shocking enough…

Day 153: Eclipse by clay nano

Day 153: Eclipse by clay nano

If you’ve been reading this blog for some length of time you may be shocked to discover that my favourite beer style is not an ipa but rather i prefer my drinks on the darker side. Oatmeal stout is the style that got me into craft beer, I remember the first time i had it i fell in love with the full bodied feel and that malty flavour. This lead me down a very long road that sees me currently…

It came in a 330ml can with an APV of 4.3%. This English brewed session ipa was Golden and apaque with single finger smooth head. I’m starting to be able to identify certain hop variety’s now and I’m getting a massive hit…

Day 151: Michelob ultra by ab inbev

Day 151: Michelob ultra by ab inbev

Now many in this audience may be shocked to hear that lite beer, or low calorie beer as it being sold here in the U.K is a rather new phonemon. The reason for this is not because the beer belly is seen as a mark of pride, believe me I’m still working on that but rather we just weren’t ready for it. Well fast forward 30 years and we’re all more health conscious than ever before. Bud lite launched…
