Mile End Brewery Fleur de Sel Gose. A rather fine salty refreshing mouthful.

I tried to sell that very same sentance to mummy pig but no go...

Mile End Brewery Fleur de Sel Gose. A rather fine salty refreshing mouthful.

I shared one with a spaniel puppy a couple of nights ago. Agreed, a nice concoction. Seven miles later I had a Disarm APA from One Mile End. Also a rather good and refreshing beer, light and grapefruity.

Does it actually taste like beer?

Very much doubt my Grandad or even my Dad would recognise this as beer but I can see how we got here. It's obviously alcoholic, it's obviously got hops and malt in it but it's sweet. Tastes absolutely nothing like wine. Grandad and Dad would have said. 'A'reet for women and sick kids' but then again that's what they said about Guiness.

Fruity indeed!

I imagine this post will be referred to the committee. Rest assured that the location will be taken in mitigation

Why have they given you a jam jar to drink from?

Whitstable Bay Red IPA from the Faversham Steam Brewery*

Spotted this in the supermarket and it's a decent IPA, with a definite hint of caramel and not too hoppy.

* - who are part of Shepherd Neame, according to the very small writing on the label on the back of the bottle, but I won't hold that against them.

I had 3 new beers last night. I can only remember 2 of them.
A (Solvay Society) Tritium Trippel Rye IPA. Dark and almost barley wine like, 7.7%'s worth of flavour. A good beer with a kick to kick off with.
And a Slaters Black IPA. Which was a bit like a semi-stout, a little less stoutly stoutish than a stout but not watered down either. I've had a few Slater's beers and they've usually been pretty good ones.

Oh, there was a rather accomplished Irish band playing. A pleasant surprise.

Having really enjoyed the Ruby Ale from St Peter's Brewery, when I spotted their Golden Ale I thought it would be worth a try.
Right enough, but I doubt I'll get it again - a shame as the Ruby was one of my favourite beers of the last few months.

Today's beer is Ringwood Brewery's* Old Thumper, described on the label as a "full of flavour craft ale".
Very nice, although you can tell it's from down south as the head lasted seconds...
Tastes good though and I'd buy it again.

* - part of Marston's, apparently.

I've just had a 5 hour session! 2 of the Fourpures I've had before and commented on. The other four....

A Crate Session IPA. Perfect for a late sunny Sunday afternoon. Nice rounded bitterness
A Brew York (it was only when I ordered it that it occurred to me that the name was playing on New York) Debaser Sour. At 2.8% it was possibly the weakest beer I've drunk for ages but it went down well. All the bitter tartness of freshly picked unripe fruit with no vinegary overtones.
A Solvay Society Structure of Matter. These Belgian-influenced beers that Solvay brew have a tendency to taste like overproof lagers but somehow get away with it.
A Brick Pale. Just lovely.
