Can at home. Pours super hazy, Wheaty, straw colour. Aroma is very hoppy, lots of herbal hops, juicy. Smooth mouthfeel, medium body. Flavour is somewhat malty, quite sweet, lots of earthy and herbal hops, juicy with citrus notes, tropical fruit with mango and papaya. Low bitterness. Quite spice driven. Finishes very dry. Lovely dry NEIPA. Mine was slightly past the date, probably would have been a bit more fruity otherwise. A bit of hops burn unfortunately, otherwise really nice.

Can at home. Sunny out on the roof. Hazy golden smoothie with creamy white head. Sweet tropical fruits, barley and lots of oats. Sweet and creamy, light bitter. Some dank moldy onion hopfunk. Over medium body and soft carbonation. Perfect beer for this moment! 🥰

440 ml. can. BBF Jan 2022. Black going to very dark brown, mocha head. Nose is some umami, molasses syrup but almost entirely underneath thick cookie-like vanilla. Vanilla is huge in taste, bit artificial, Oreo, cookie, frosting, chemical vanilla filling with thick chocolate syrup & candy, cookie. Thick, way more cookie-like than expected, pastry, frosting, vanilla is huge slightly fake but in a very delicious way, ABV doesn’t show surprisingly, very nice pastry but no overtly extreme for pastry, great stuff.

Can shared at home. Cloudy light golden with white head. Huge sweet fruit candy, juicy hops, bitter grass and dried flowers, dank citrus candy hops too. Quite sweet and medium bitter. Over medium bodied. Quite tasty, some weird dusty flowers in the finish but otherwise a nice DIPA much on the sweet and juicy side.

Can. Hazy yellowish gold beer, small white head. Palate is light and mildly dry with a good fine minerally crispness. Light malts but delivering a decent sweet base. Crisp pine hops, juicy citrus, light but bright and flavoursome orange and tangerine, whispers of grapefruit and mango. The hemp comes through as sweet nuttyness, but it's quite subtle. Crisp finish. Bit of a belter is this, juicy and crisp and super drinkable.

440ml can from sophiesbeerstore.co.uk. Hazed golden orange appearance, settled pure white head. Some definite hemp, cannabis coming through on the nose. Taste sees twiggy hemp-like elements nudging into an otherwise pleasant, smooth mango-like IPA character. Not sure what benefit it brings to the beer, thankfully not too imposing. An excellent IPA otherwise though.

Strong milk stout (so with the obligatory lactose) further flavoured with vanilla, coffee and cocoa nibs, from this craft brewery in the English Tyne & Wear area. Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Mousy, regular, greyish beige, small-bubbled, slowly opening head on a pitch black beer, showing some greyish dead yeast 'sediment' at the bottom of the glass - not usually a good sign in this type of beers. Aroma strongly beef stock cube-like, burnt toast, cold espresso, reduced game stock, damp earth, wet black chocolate bars, leather, coffee grounds, old 'jenever', dried porcini, charred walnuts, salmiak, wood ashes, charcoal, forest floor, dead tree leaves, black tea, hard caramel, stewed beef - but very little of the promised vanilla, if any at all. Sweetish onset with light fruity notes of prunes and figs as well as a sourish blackberry-like undertone, quickly surrounded by very heavy beef stock- and porcini-like umami, with even a slightly 'dirty' effect at the edges, hinting at mild and onsetting infection - as does a suspiciously spritzy carbonation effect. Full walnutty and 'unsweet' caramelly body, bitter chocolate too, toasty but holding back its bitterness a bit, leaving that to the coffee addition, which adds a spicy, aromatic bitterness working well with a spicy hop note and lingering at the back long after swallowing, yet without becoming overly dominant; light liquorice accent as well as that 'dead tree leaf' earthiness, salmiak, but the vanilla sadly remains as good as absent. Warming, 'jenever'-ish alcohol glow amidst the lingering coffee, bitter chocolate and toasted bread aspects. I have a suspicion that a mild infection is creeping in here, with a slight dirtiness and strong earthy effects, as well as additional carbonation which breaks the normal creaminess of the lactose. That said, the lactose dosage probably was not very strong here to begin with, as I get very little of the 'milky sweetness' it normally exhibits; vanilla, apparently added here at some point, is all but unnoticeable and this is regrettable, as I love a good whiff of delicate vanilla in this kind of beers. Enjoyable enough, in all, still bold and powerful as it ought to be, but not entirely satisfactory with regard to what it promises - I expected more, to be honest.

440ml can. Sweet, stingy hoppy and tropical fruity with loads of citrus, mango, grapefruit and pine. Okay, a bit heavy and sweet though.
