Established in 2014
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) Cloudy golden yellow colour with brief head. Fruity nose with notes of mango, raspberries, orange and vanilla. Fruity, tart taste with tropical fruit, mango, passionfruit, citrus, raspberries, vanilla and white bread. No bitterness. Medium body, with a slight vanilla sweetness. Fresh and fruity. Nice one.

Keg at The Townhouse, Petersfield. Hazy pale gold. Thin foamy translucent white head. A hazy aroma - citrus and spice. Flavourwise this has more oomph than the aroma. Citrus and resin intertwine with spice. A coconut hint but not too much of that luckily. Light-medium bodied. Slick verging on creamy. Flat-soft carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Pleasent. Actually more than that for a budget beer.

Can. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, semi dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Light creamy sweet malts, pleasant. Crisp pine. Smooth rich if slightly ripe citrus, a little brighter citrus. A good tangy stone fruits. Mild hop spice. Light semi dry finish. Tangy stone fruit linger. Pretty drinkable.

Can from From Beer To Eternity on the train home. Pink. With chalky neon bits. Thick frothy foamy pink head. Definitely stained the carpet. Aroma is sweet. Fruity. Candyfloss. Slightly dulled sour edge. Berries. Candyfloss. An underlying streak that combines sourness with a pithy bent. Thick. Creamy to gloomy. A chalky feel. Sticks to me tache. Long slightly astringent finish. Yeah. Fruity pulpy randomly textured cartoon beer. What to score it though... that is the conundrum

From tap at Tapp & Kork, Molde, on bus transit from Åndalsnes to Kristiansund 07.05.25. Cloudy straw colour. White head and lacing. Aroma and taste of bitter citrus, lemon grass, pale malt and perhaps an unintended hint of brett.
