Can, medium stable bubbly head, hazy yellow colour with orange hues, citrus and fruity with a hint of flowers and a whiff of onion, light to medium citrusy bitterness with just a soapy sensation. Nice and drinkable.

Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#3. LONDON. Last transit through the capital beer, bought at BrewDog under Waterloo Station. On the way I walked past the imposing British Museum building. No time today to visit, but I have done before a decade ago. Hoppy pale with mild enough berry fruit flavours - not enough to change its style though. Dirtier aroma.

Keg at Brewdoge Camden, 30/05/2025.
Golden blonde topped with a white crown.
Nose is melon, airy malts, tangerine, grass.
Taste comprises orange peel, melon, citric tinged straw, pale malts.
Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close with a mild hop bittering.
One of those inoffensive but offering nothing modern day Brewdoge beers.

Can picked up at BD Castlegate. It pours crystal clear pale yellow - gold with a decent fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, juicy, ripe berry character, summer fruits, splash of ribena and funny candy. The taste is crisp, dry, mellow bitterness, berry skin, dull fruity tartness, summer fruits, fruit salad, fairly clean, floral accents and some biscuit in the malt with a dry, berry skin finish. Average to light body and moderate carbonation. Doesn't feel fake / artificial like BD "fruity" beers have had over he last few years, which works for me. Perhaps a bit boring though.
