Description
Ben, Sam & Graham started Pressure Drop in 2013, making 50L batches in Graham's garden shed. After upgrading to a 5BBL kit and spending a few years in a railway arch in Hackney (yep, we are the stereotype), we've found our home in Tottenham.
We now employ a small team of great people and have a bigger, nicer and shinier 20BBL brew kit. We're making the best beer that we can, in styles that we want to enjoy, and hope that you will too.

330ml bottle from Ales by Mail
Bottled 11.06.2013, BBE 11.12.2013 - Pours pitch black with a foamy white head. Aroma of roasty malts, wood, hints of dark ripe fruits, vanilla, oak and sweet toffee notes. Taste is hoppy, slightly roasty and a bit messy with notes of vanilla, chocolate, toffee, caramel, wood and exotic fruits. Finish is smooth, wooden and sweetish with hints of vanilla and oak. A bit strange and untypical, the bourbon notes don’t quite fit in here.

Keg at Leeds International Beer Festival. 4.0%. Cloudy straw colour. One of the brewers invited me to guess the herb in this. The nearest I got was fennel. (Well, thats what the missus thought). He then went on to say he wanted this to taste a bit like a red sauce. I thought, oh yeah, it does too. Slightly spicy, fruity. Good job. Except later his colleague said to me, "Bread sauce, not red sauce!". I’m not really cut out for this tasting lark...

Bottle from Sourced Market in St Pancras station, London. Poured a dark amber with a slight haze and a dense white head. Aroma of pine, caramel and tropical fruits. Quite sweet initial flavours of toffee, brown sugar, and sponge cake before tart citrus hops come into the mix with resin notes, all balanced with some bready malts.

Bottle at home, acquired at Sourced, 01/09/13. Pours golden amber with a mahoosive forthy off white head. Nose is floral hops, apricot, light yeast esters, faint cinnamom bark, ripe banana. Taste comprises orange pith, light yeast tones, clove, light spice, hint of bready malts. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, light hop bitterness in the finale. Ok hefe but not true to the style, more a hybrid pale ale / ipa kind of thing going down.

Bottle at Deans Birthday Tasting, August 2013. Poured a deep mahogany colour with a frothy tan head. The aroma is peaty and malt. The flavour is weak bitter with some roasted malt, coffee and chocolate on the slightly watery palate. The aroma was better than the taste.
