I was quite intrigued to spot a NEIPA listed on the beer list of Downton's stall at the Winchester Christmas Market. However it's not really a NEIPA. From a bottle. Piney aroma. Copper gold - no haze whatsoever. Thin bubbly white head. I drank it and announced, Bitter! The guy on the stall said, Oh, if you like sweeter beers.. So I explained that I was not expecting a NEIPA to be so bitter. He didn't really get it. Light. Thin. Average carbonation. Astringent finish. For me a typically quinine IPA from a trad British brewery.
