This is our interpretation of Amigos Británicos - a beer originally brewed in Vermont to celebrate years of brewing friendships forged in the UK. Together with our former Head Brewer Ryan (under his own new guise of Casita Cervecería) and Logan from Beavertown, we devised this adventurous ale with lime, honey and fresh Santa Fe Grande chilli peppers. Here’s to nights that become the stuff of legends and friends, wherever you may find them!

Very small, greyish head over hazy orange beer, low on carbonation and some fine UFO’s. Chilli present in the nose, next to a green leaf/herb aroma, as to which? Green (sweet) paprika maybe too. Sweetish, with again a very vegetable component. Faint peppery heat backthroat. Capsicum dominates the profile, anyhow. Feels much better carbonated than it looks; Slick, but light body for its 7.8 ABV Just a bit unidimensional. I dare to hazard that upping the lime would have created quite some more depth. And some Citra?

Keg tap at BrewDog Shepherds Bush. Orangey gold and a bit hazy with a thin white head. Weird gooey smell with notes of honey, tequila, sickly saltwater taffy, Belgian yeast and butter. Taste is honeyed sweet, salty and boozy with a scary tequila kick. Riddled with problems but oddly drinkable. Never again though.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 20.09.2017, batch # G648. Dorée, col blanc crémeux tenace. Arôme de suite marqué par l’effet de chilli, rétro de citronnelle rappelant les épices thaïlandaises, coriandre en prime, l’effet de miel reste plus modéré. Palais est léger, bien malté, chaleur des chillis est bien là et se compose avec l’effet de citronnelle qui rappelle aussi le mojito voire l’eucalyptus et cuisine sauce thaï. Coriandre, chaleur discrète des piment avec un effet plus doux du miel qui ajoute une composante organique.
