A week after it’s introduction and it’s mellowed nicely. The lime hint and citrus is still there but any bitterness has pretty much disappeared. Smooth tropical yeasty, cask ale goodness 👍

The weekend has landed in the form of a an oatmeal liquorice stout. Super fresh and tasting good, this will only get better with age. Fruity, slight tang of bitterness, quite smooth and very easy drinking. Liquorice comes through at the end. This would have done really well as a stout to have throughout the summer. My local brewery is very small and a cask of this wouldn’t shift in the summer. It’ll shift now though, happy weekend! 👍

Bitterness is there but in the background. Loads of tropical goodness in flavour, nice soft mouthfeel. Great beer!

Two new beers on at my local micro, what a treat! And after completing my first official timekeeping duties in competitive swimming i was in the mood for celebrating! Nice citrus notes, hint of lime and tangerine, very low key. Really smooth bitterness comes through. Could sink a few of these but I want to try the other new one.

Same yeast, same water profile, same hops… Slightly different malt bill, slightly different cold side hop schedule… Just goes to show what subtle changes can do to a beer. This has been transformed. Raw, vegetal, chewy and dense. Tropical intensity, melon and lime… A beaut! 👌

Pineapple and tangerine flavours, lovely chewy body.

My first review of this was on the Friday evening having tapped the beer at 6am on Thursday… by Saturday evening the conditioning had mellowed this beer out somewhat and I was honestly in heaven with this… cask beer, NEIPA profile, up there with the best of ‘em, brewed less than a mile from my gaff… 🥰

Fruit salad, subtle coconut and hints of piney dankness. Just lovely…

Phenomenal beer! Juicy and tropical. Key lime pie, fresh pine and stone fruits. Hints of biscuit malt coming through. Being a 4,5% cask beer this flavours and aroma just don’t carry as far as it would had this been from the keg, the cask being tapped nearly days ago.

Pineapple and coconut in abundance. Bitterness more assertive than usual. Not complaining cos this is a very decent pint 👍
