Can inside the utter shit show that is Brewdog Shoreditch. Fuckmyoldboot. This was a must goto joint once upon a time. Now the tap list is as dull as dishwater. Not a single thing or interest, just a bunch of taps aimed at city types who want something light and easy. Is this where you wanted to be James and Martin? Full of it weren't you? What a fucken absolute let down. Bollocks to Brewdog, a complete busted flush. Right then, Brewdogs utter failure at least led to this Neon Raptor winner. A light haze on this slightly pale gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Soft pale malts, light and creamy sweet. Hops bring resinous smooth cooling pine. Good Cashmere ripe galia melon. Touch of smooth and ripe lime. A little lemony citrus on the back end. Fabulous Cashmere here, makes this a hugely quaffable dipa.
Stone fruits, ripe, slightly sweet

Keg at Brewdog Clerkenwell, 06/12/24. Hazed golden yellow topped with a lasting white head. Nose is bitter sweet tropical fruit esters, raw pineapple, grass, melon, mandarin. Taste comprises mango flesh, papaya, grass, light soapy trace, mandarin, pineapple. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with mellow juicy hop bitterness. Passable DIPA ... came across a little disjointed.
