Can from Loz's Beer Republic Beer Advent Calendar, don't recall what day it was supposed to be had. Consumed at home Sunday 29th December 2024 We had a Mexican meal tonight cooked by me and Loz. Listening to Tom Robinson on 6Music. Pours black with a light beige head. This is a bit bland, not really giving me any oils vibes, not particularly dry,crisp or anything that I would associate with an IPA regardless of the colour. Not a bad beer but just very little to write home about.

Can at BRACT #1. If anything, this beer is a bit more yeasty than I would like, both in aroma and flavour. But that is not a big flaw, rather something I mention in context of their commercial description. Besides the yeast, it is a pretty classic and well balanced dark lager, moderate roast, good balance with mostly coffee, light ashy, but clean, with low astringency. Tasty, quite good.
