Description
Neckstamper Brewing is based in East London - a 10 barrel brewery passionately hand-crafting great beers.
Why Neckstamper? - Not a literal meaning - but looking to London’s rich brewing history. Neck-stamper was the slang term given to the pot boy at an ale-house in the 1700s. The neck-stamper’s job was to collect the empty bottles or tankards previously sent out to private homes - “stamping” around the streets with the empties strung around his “neck”. Takeaway beer in the 1700s.

Keg at LBL. It pour clearish yellow - gold with a thick and foamy white head. The aroma is fresh, juicy, plenty of melon, greengage, papaya and white bread. The taste is dry, some decent bitterness, straw, pithy, grapefruit, melon, citrus peel, papaya, grain, touch of alcohol and some spice with a drying finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. Decent entry level IPA. Looking forward to see how this recipe evolves.

Keg at the Fox - Hackney. Pours mostly clear gold with a creamy, white cap. The aroma holds pithy citrus, tangerine, dried pale malts. Light sweet about with notes of pale grains, more tangerine, orange rind, pine needles. Light to medium bodied with massaging carbonation. Finishes with ripening citrus, subtle flinty minerality, rindy bitterness, more dry pale bread. A serviceable APA. Nothing wrong here.
