I had this at The Dean Swift, Tower Bridge, London, Saturday 17th August 2013 Hazy dark gold/orange colour the head is off-white. It is interesting drinking this alongside the Signature Brew, Dry the River Mammoth as this tastes a little sweet and less hoppy than that beer. However once the mouth has recovered from the furiously hoppy onslaught delivered by the Mammoth the Weird Beard is a truly lovely juicy wonderfully fruity, hoppy beer in its own right.The fruitiness is tropical with waves of juiciness coming at you, it is a really nice beer but just finds itself up against a big hoppy, dry and very bitter beer, I will drink this again on its own at some point to get a more rounded opinion of it.

Bottle from Corks of Cotham, Bristol. Black with a big, tight tan head. Pine and citrus hop aroma with a touch of fruit cake and trace of marmite yeastiness. Flavour had solid malts, some more citrus fruit and a prickly pine finish. Good.

Bottle from The Beerhive. Muddy amber body with a huge off-white head that holds well and leaves excellent lacing. Aroma of sweet toffee, lychee and pine. It tastes quite rich and malty but there’s enough hop bitterness to balance things out. Flavours of caramel, orange, grapefruit and lime. The alcohol is well hidden. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Almost no carbonation. An good, malty IPA that could do with a bit more carbonation fizz.

Bottle at home. Murky amber body with a massive white head. Excellent lacing. Muted aroma of lychee, lime, pear and yeast. Flavour is similar - definitely pear, but also herbal flavours. Thin to medium body with an oily texture. Soft carbonation fizz. A decent IPA, just not the most interesting.

Cask at Cask Pub and Kitchen, Pimlico, London. A hazy golden/amber coloured pour with a small white head on top. Sweet, yeasty, spice aroma. Taste is similar, yeasty, spice, sweet, some lemon. Quite boozy and a little unbalanced for my palate but still pretty good.

Bottle from ’Jacks’, Goring-on-Thames, Oxon. Consumed at home Monday 26th August 2013 Pours gold, well actually its more of a hazy dark gold/light amber with a white head. Aroma showing some citrus but also a clean resiny, sappy, piney smell also perhaps. Nice bittersweet bite, mid carbonation. Nice beer. A6 A3 T7 P4 Ov13 3.3

Bottle at home. It pours hazy amber with a small white head. The nose is bitter-sweet, tangerine, stewed orange, caramel, candy and Victoria sponge. The taste is peach, tangerine, resin, wood, leather, spice, brown bread, caramel and booze with a dry, bitter finish. Medium body and fine carbonation. A bit brash and boozy... OK.
