Can. The great Brut IPA return continues. Maybe! Hazy yellowish gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Thin malts provide a reasonable sweetness. That typically Brut IPA light champagney vibe, dry and slightly bitter. Tons of cooling piney hop here, works very well with the Brut vibe. A light tingling hop spice. Emerging soft citrus and tropical fruits is a really nice touch before everything snaps back to attention with a typically Brut crisp finish. Very good example of the style. The only problem here is drinkability, as in, far too much of it!

Big white grape aroma, but taste is more like ne. Fruity, bit of lactose, but quite nice. Not hazy for some reason. Cheers Will!

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear pear colored yellow with a finger of white foam that dissipates quickly. Very dank nose with tropical fruit, grapefruit, melon and pear aromas as it warms. Guava, lychee and more grapefruit on the palate. Super crisp and clean with a nice drying, dried tropical fruit note that leaves prickly carbonation. Definitely the best brut I've had at this point. Very nice.

Keg tap at BrewDog Leicester. Light yellow, clear with the tiniest head. Dry yeast aroma, some posset, some lemongrass. Delicious rounded taste, starting with some sweetness and turning to an incredibly dry finish with a hint of funk. Carbonation is aggressive but this works well for the beer. Recommended.

Keg at BD Shoreditch, 22/08/19. Clear golden blonde with an off white cap that dissipates to a swirl. Nose is grassy, stoned fruits, juicy citric flesh, kumquat. Taste comprises juicy citric flesh, grass, pine resin, green berry tang, orange peel. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close peppered with juicy come danko hop bitterness. One of the better exponents of this sub genre I’ve encountered ... solid stuff ... solid brewery!

On keg at Brewdog Lothian Rd, Edinburgh. Appearance - yellow gold with a thin but attractive head. Nose - pineapple and orange. Sweat note. Taste - big fresh sweat nite up front. Then pineapple and orange emerge out the other side. Palate - quite butter despite the style. Light to medium bodied. Dry finish. Overall - good.

Keg at BD Castlegate. It pours clear greenish yellow with a foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, green, weedy, soft, melon, pear, white grape, straw and gummy bears. The taste is crisp, dry, clean, melon, pear, white grape, kick of alcohol booze, gummy bears, spicy, straw, grass, dull weed and white wine with a warming finish. Medium body and prickly carbonation. Works rather well. A nic example of an unloved style.
