Cwtch - Tiny Rebel - 4.6% ABV. B+ and a bit, going over I think but still a quality brew. Malty, fruity and hoppy with a gentle bitter finish #ale#beer#bier.
3.3/5. In the all new Carpenter’s where I can now get on the WiFi. Feeling very Saturday morning and wishing the rain would stop. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Pure UBU - Purity Brewing - 4.5% ABV. B+ and a bit, malty, with a hint of sweet fruity and lingering bitter. Long tasty bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.3/5. Cold easterly wind with steady light rain. Not very springlike. Good for my Potatoes but not really for me. Need warmer weather. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
Unconventional! Very red apple, with some citrus and light bread. Sweet, with a bitter only in the end. Low in carbonation for the style, but a steady, lacing, white head.
Braupakt: Two giants at it together, Weihenstephan and St Bernardus.
The Weizen yeast is obvious, with clove and banana dominating the aroma. Also some biscuit, citrus and hay. It's golden and crystal clear, with a stable white head. Effervescent, rather sweet, with a good dose of hop bitters.
Very well balanced. A good mix of the styles, with both very recognizable. Nice experiment!
A #brewery visit to Stadshaven in Rotterdam, with tasting and dinner. Impressively large scale operation, good for 2 million liters a year.
A large range of beers from lager and smoked märzen, through Belgian styles, Dutch Bock as well as IPAs, winter ales and porter. #beer#craftbeer 🍻 @beersofmastodon
Beer and cheese from the same abbey! A corresponding fresh grass and light yellow fruit fermentation character. The match is pretty good. Beer also has biscuit. Somewhat sweet, with a very light bitter in the finish. Quite bold for the low abv.

@Chrispyapple@beersofmastodon There's various abbeys that do this! La Trappe and Rochefort are two that I know of. Also, Maallust in the Netherlands (not an abbey) has a cheese maker right next door and they collaborate often.
Bits - Flowerhorn - 5.5% ABV. B++, heavy on the orange but with citrus sharpness. Really refreshing and with a dry, fruity, bitter finish #ale#beer#bier
3.5/5. From Ely, Cardiff all the way to Central Caerphilly and I tank you for it. Lovely Orange brew. #beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
