Play Dead - Dog’s Window - 11.0% ABV. B++, strong, Pilsner, Boozy and Belgian. Very solid Ale from Bridgend #ale#beer#bier
3.5/5. Maybe not the best ale to finish off the afternoon but who stronger and better from the county town of Glamorgan 🏴 #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Mumbles Amber - Mumbles Brewery - 4.1% ABV. B+ and a bit. Malty, fruity, bittersweet and fruity bitter finish. Summerish #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. The Pen and Wig, Newport where someone has left a pair of pink trainers outside and the is sweet fruity cider inside. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Fantastic hospitality in the small Dordrecht city brewery. They brew small scale, 8000L a year with volunteers and students. You can visit them whenever they're open and they do have a great story! They even let me taste some wort :) 🍻
I visited them in the small amount of time I had in a somewhat long train connection, that I extended by another 30 minutes. Great find!
Flavor panel time! Once a month I get the opportunity to write (usually 12) short reviews of beer for an online shop. It keeps the tasting and description skills sharp! 🍻 #craftbeer#beer#review#beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Lost Arts - Polly’s Brew Co - 5.1% ABV. B++, hazy, juicy, hoppy and really refreshing. Gentle, fruity, bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.5/5. Drinking Mold 🏴 and it’s a little corker. Bright skies to the right, angry dark clouds to the left. The Great British Summer. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Hearty Bitter - Yorkshire Heart - 3.7% ABV. B+ and a bit, big and malty with a hint of earthiness. A lingering gentle bitter and earthy finish #ale#beer#bier
Smooth Hound - Tomos & Lilford - 5.2% ABV. B+ and a bit, malty, earthy, spicy with a complex, gentle bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. Supporting Vale brewers and it’s not even my birthday. Sunny a bit now and dropped back to 4G / LTE. Chips next. #Newport#beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Blonde - Saltaire Brewery - 4.0% ABV. B+ and a bit and a touch. Light, refreshing with a pleasing citrus fruitiness #ale#beer#bier
3.4/5. A brew much better suited to last weekend’s Summer Sun. Grey and cool today but at least I’m back out Beanoing. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Maximus, in collaboration with a liquor store and local beer club: Una Maximas, NZ rice lager.
👃🏻Grape, lime, peach, chives.
👁️ Light yellow, hazy. Stable white head.
👅 Dry, thin body, but the hop aromas make for a tasty brew. Very refreshing, and easy drinking. Very slight hop burn.
I received a box full of goodness from the Maximus #brewery
in Utrecht (NL), following the release of their newest special: Psycho Cyclops NEIPA. I tried it, and wrote a blog post about the experience!
Spoiler: it's smooooth, not bitter at all, and massively tropical.🍻
You Can’t Take It With You - Silent Brew - 5.5% ABV. B++, hazy murk. Fruity, juicy, hoppy, hint of earthiness with a lingering fruity bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
Hissing Prawn Destroyer - Silent Brew Co - 4.0% ABV. B+ and a bit, juicy, citrus, tropical with a hint of earthiness and a earthy, bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
Pavo - Squark Brewing - 3.8% ABV. B+ and a bit, fruity with a hint of bubblegum with a gentle fruity, bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. The rain is stopping but the pub is getting even fuller. Luckily I have a direct line to the bar. Fair weather drinkers. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Punk IPA - BrewDog - 5.2% ABV. B++ and a touch. It’s still got it and in one of those glasses I didn’t think existed. Prost #ale#beer#bier
3.6/5. I could probably stay all day in The Posset Cup but they would need and better beers. However, this Punk works #mb06#beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Cosmic Pale Ale - Tiny Rebel / Greene King - 4.2% ABV. B+ and a bit, maybe with a hint of fruitiness as it warms up? #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. The FA Cup is now up and working on the TV. Ironic that it’s easier to get Tiny Rebel in Portishead than Newport #mb06#beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Love Monkey - Glastonbury Ales - 4.2% ABV. B+ and a bit, hoppy, malty with a hint of sweet jam. Gentle earthy bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. They were trying to get the FA Cup on the TV but I think they have given up. Streaming on personal devices is the way forward. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
