Description
Beer For People Who Love To Ride Dinosaurs!

From the moment they started they knew they weren’t cool. They didn’t have beards and attempts at growing them were simply humiliating and a little embarrassing for them and their families. So they set aside their rose scented facial wax and tiny combs and focused on what they knew best… brewing quality beer (and dinosaur puns)!

Hatched in 2015 by three clean shaven friends with an obsession for beer and dinosaurs, Staggeringly Good have quickly become known as one of the UK’s leading breweries ranking consistently in the TOP 20 in the country on Untappd.’

Yes it’s all got a little out of control since we first uttered the sentence ‘Hey shall we get together on Sunday and brew some beer?’. Now there are grown up things like bills and stuff, but don’t worry we’re not going to let that get in the way of us having a grain sack load of fun. Catch you at the tap room soon dino-riders!

Can from Eltham Wines. Milky light brown pour (akin to a chocolate milkshake) with a wispy tan head. Aromas of chocolate, hazelnut, cocoa. Liquid chocolate action, nutty sweet, mire cocoa. Ooh this is good. Rich velvety mouthfeel. Humungously warming. A boon for all chocolate lovers out there including my good self of course 😋

Can from Eltham Wines. Milky light brown pour (bit of a hot chocolate hue) with wispy tan head. Aromas of chocolate, coconut, cocoa, creamy coffee. Flavours of milk chocolate Bounty Bar, Horlicks, marzipan. Proper chocolate indulgence, almost Baileys-esque. Thick creamy sweet boozy finish. Scrumdiddlyumptious!

Can from the Low Cost Beer online shop. Pours pretty still orange with no real head. A few floaters. Aromas of mango and custard, so probably the vanilla. Taste is raspberry and yoghurt, faint saline. Chalky finish.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - cloudy and solid orange. No head. Nose - sour, salty and mango for sure. Taste - mango, raspberry and less of the vanilla. Palate - light to medium bodied, tangy sour finish. Overall - quite nice.

Can. Just a light haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light malts, a light thin creamy sweetness. Light crispy pine. Smooth skunk. Mild but reasonably bright citrus on the back end. Finishes light and crispy. Tidy dipa, nothing to dislike here, it just doesn't leap out the glass as so many do these days.

Bottle ordered from the brewery. Aroma is dry and vinous. Boozy. Latent pear hints. Opaque amber. Foamy white head swiftly retreats. Fruity. Peary. A sour tangy and vinous streak. Sugary pulpy pear appears into the finish. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Soft carbonation. Long dry astringent finish. Big in flavour, in fruitiness. Less so in term of booze but it's warming. Yummer.

Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Soft creamy sweet malts. Light smooth pine, quite bright. Light but juicy hop citrus. A little tropical fruits and stone fruits, mild candy fruits. Good gamut of hop fruits. Mild hop spice on the light finish. Very good fruity hop dipa.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, good bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, semi dry, a good crisp minerally carbonation. Light malts, a nice light creamy sweetness. Interesting hop bill. Sabro and HBC431. If memory serves, HBC431 was around long before Sabro (HBC438) and yet, still no commercial name. Crisp cooling pine into light and juicy Sabro ripe pineapple and light creamy coconut and here, well backed up by HBC431, that for me, fits in well with Idaho 7 and Bru 1. I mean broad spectrum bright citrus and tropical fruits. Some nibbly hop spice on the back end. Yeah, bright, light and properly hoppy. Pretty much 90% or what you want from a dipa.

Cask @ The Baum, Rochdale. Deeper clear golden with a head. Has a clear strength to proceedings, some sugars, some stewed-fruit style taste.
