What's your favorite Beer?

Ha! Nice that Amundsen are breaking through in the UK and working with Verdant. Not my favourite Norwegian brewery but they pull some absolute blinders out now and again.

Maddy LOVES that beer right now…

Fruity, but slightly sour and no so sweet.

Me, I think it didn't taste beer-y enough for my taste

This is why I never use Ratebeer etc. Every now and again a bottle pops up in thw shop and I’ll buy it because it looks interesting. Some times it’ll suck some times I’ll get a result. Occasionally it’ll be fantastic.

Picked this up yesterday and seeing as it was a 2013 vintage I figured I’d be ok to drink it straight away [emoji1]

Made by Struise and described as a Royal Stout, it was amazing stuff. Adding to the fun, they couldn’t decide how strong it was. The OG label said 11%ABV, the import label 13%ABV.

It's 13. Previous batch was 11, but by mistake.

Tasted 13, feels like it was 13 this morning. Wonderful stuff.

That’s a nice list. Wander Beyond seem to have the right idea.

"Vintage 2013" is actually the 2017 edition btw. Struise are annoying like that.

[neph93]

It was delicious whenever it was made.

Lacks a bit of body but nice nonetheless…

Infected CRAP versus €urope's finest.

[Giles]

Cornwalls finest…

That's such an easy drinking pale… Verdant's been the revelation for me this summer...

[Giles]

So has Cloudwater….

[emceeQ]

Nice ones G… Verdant and Cloudwater are both doing amazing things right now.  Jealous of the easy access to their stuff...

[Giles]

Jealous of easy access to Ulua…...

[jdl1279]

Not too bad. Not much Raspberry, but a nice tartness none the less

That was my hangover cure this morning… Best breakfast I've had in ages!

Had that before, Giles. Quite nice if I recall! Just opened a Chimay Red.

Back at Prison City last night.
Multi culture red sour ale aged in red wine barrels. 6% ABV. Only had half pours available.

DIPA That's All the Hops We Had Karen. Nine different hops. 7.8% ABV
Both were fantastic

From a brewery in PA. Fantastic. No bad time for a chocolate oatmeal stout.
