Did you know that IPA stands for Indian Pale Ale, and that it was originally brewed for sale in India, becoming popular in the UK following a shipwreck in the Irish Sea in 1827, when barrels of IPA were auctioned off in Liverpool? IPA is one of Cains’ best selling ales: a refreshing session beer, with a subtle hop aroma and a light, yet full flavour

Cask, Egremont Ferry, Wallasey. Clear amber colour with a small white head. Muted nose with some vague fruit notes. Lacklustre flavour with some sweet malt and very muffled hop. Drinkable but insipid and nowhere near hoppy enough to be considered an ipa. Disappointingly below par. Go for the tt landlord if you’re ever at this spot with its great views of the mersey.

Can. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of matl and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and caramel, leading to a lightly bitter finish. The body is ligth. I find it boring.

Mild hopfiger Antrunk mit ebenfalls milder Herbe, die sich im Mittelteil steigert. Das Bier bleibt aber mild, der Hopfen scheint nur wenig wichtig. Die Bitterkeit wird dagegen stärker und hält auch im Abgang noch an. Zu schnell wird das Bier aber wässrig. 7/8/8/6/8/8

Can, from Rema 1000, Hirtshals. It pours a clear, dark golden body and a small, off-white head. Malt-dominated British-style bitter-aroma with some fruity notes. Pears and plums mostly. Some raisins. The flavor is much the same, finishing slightly metallic. A bit low on bitterness, even for a bitter. Medium body, pleasantly carbonated, although I suspect I’d prefer it from the cask. Short finish with a hint of toffee, mostly fruity. Definitely not a bad one, it’s just one of the boring ones. 110122
