Tap at Sommar, Waterloo Street, Brum. 3/4 hazy orange-gold with small wispy top. Taste is quite tropical with a slightly syrup like orange, mango and passionfruit on a malty background. Decent bitterness. Medium+ bodied. Not bad.

Tap from Sommar, Waterloo Street, Brum. Its decent but I was a little underwhelmed compared to some of their beers. Quite sweet raspberry and vanilla, some tartness and creaminess on a grainy backdrop. Smooth, slightly drying.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Brum. Hazy yellow-gold with small white top. Starts sweet with a tropical tangy fruit then finishes with a drying bitter zesty grapefruit and mineral. Quite a nice contrast, enjoyable.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Birmingham. Hazy gold with small white head. Has a citrus and juicy overripe tropical light funky character with a hint of caramel in the malt. Moderate bitterness. Decent.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo Street, Birmingham. Pours hazy darkish red, minor white swirl but no retention. A fairly punchy sour for modern standards anyway, cherry, light toasted grain, light drying finish. Nothing particularly stands out here but fairly tasty.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Birmingham. Poured a dark brown with small beige head. Big dark chocolate notes in this, fairly sweet with roasted malt and coffee. Thee is some grassy hop in the finish. Didn't pick up on any coconut; which is a shame as I think it needed something to elevate what is a good stout but nothing amazing for one at 7% abv.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Birmingham. Hazy orange gold with wispy head. There is a dry hop juicy tropical burst near the finish but the middle has a certain green funk and cardigans. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi-drying. I would like to try this again, it was interesting and I don't think a 1/3 pour was enough to work it out. Not for an amateur like me anyway.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Birmingham. Hazy yellow-gold, nice white top and lacing. Grassy, dank with some grapefruit and stone fruit tang, minerals. Drying finish, mid bodied. Not normally my type of IPA but it certainly had character. Anything that stands out as a bit different in IPA land has to be applauded.

Hazy yellow gold with white consistent head. Juicy citrus, light tropical and pine notes with a slightly creamy malt. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light dryness. It doesn't necessarily stand out (although I did have Glasshouse and Nothing Bound pales on my day out so tougher competition) but its a nice beer.

Tap at Sommar, Waterloo St, Brum. Clear amber with creamy white head, nice lacing. Notes of caramel, wafer, funk, pine resin, grapefruit, lime zest. Quite bitter, medium bodied, fine carbonation. It grew on me this one. Decent IPA.
