Cloudwater – DDH Pale

Nice, tasty, citrussy, hazy and fresh. everything I like in a DDH / NEIPA. Nothing particularly stand out, but relatively smooth and not bad all rounder.

Sampled from: Can

ABV – 5%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Yes

Rating: 4/5

Kona Brewing Co. – Big Wave

A golden ale, all the way from Hawaii. Its light, refreshing, mildly fruity and more like an English golden ale than an IPA, not as hoppy. A nice little number.

Sampled from: Can

Country of Origin: Hawaii

ABV – 4.4%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Yes

Rating: 3/5

Amundsen – Lorita

A Passionfruit pale ale. Which didnt massively taste of passionfruit if I am honest. . . It was nice, refreshing and definitely had a fruitiness to it, but it wasnt the best Amundsen beer Ive tried.

Sampled from: Can

Country of Origin: Norway

ABV – 4.7%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Possibly

Rating: 3.5/5

Roomies – Munich Kellerbier

This is a nice amber coloured kind of spiced lager type affair. Its got a very distinctive flavour and is supposedly a traditional style from the region. It was a surprise as I was expecting a standard lager. Very interesting and good.

Sampled from: Can

Country of Origin: Germany

ABV – 4.9%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Yes

Rating: 4/5

Magic Rock – Salty Kiss

A Gooseberry Gose. . . Its got a slight fruitiness to it, but ultimately its the salty, standard flavour I associate with a gose that comes through the most. Fresh, but not great, for me at least.

Sampled from: Can

ABV – 4.1%

Would I recommend? No

Would I buy again? No

Rating: 2/5

Brewdog Vs. SALT – Model Citizen

Hmm, I was a little disappointed by this one, it has everything I like about an NEIPA, but was just a bit meh. . . I expected more from a collab between these two, maybe a bit more fruit in the mix, but it wasnt to be. . .

Sampled from: Can

ABV – 6.8%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Yes

Rating: 3.5/5

Cloudwater – Soft & Juicy IPA

A nice straw coloured / super pale hazy beer, not a million miles away from Hazy Jane by Brewdog. that similar citrussy flavour, with the same undertones coming through, relatively fruit forward. Not bad.

Sampled from: Can

ABV – 6%

Would I recommend? Yes

Would I buy again? Yes

Rating: 3.5/5
