Bottle at Drunk Dry, Kidlington, Oxon at a MTB evening with Tap Social Movement, Thursday 2nd February 2017. Hazy warn gold with just a few stray bubbles. This like the other sour is really good, there is a bit more going on here though, tart berries and surprisingly jammy tasting (albeit a very tart jamminess). I enjoyed this though agree with the gentleman stood next to me that it would probably be better on draft as it was just lacking a little carbonation. I have now tried all four Tap Social Brew beers and have to say, that this is a really good start from this new Oxfordshire outfit, good luck to them going forward. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Bottle at Drunk Dry, Kidlington, Oxon at a MTB evening with Tap Social Movement, Thursday 2nd February 2017. Hazy gold, actually perhaps a little silvery tinge to this, a little hazy. Really refreshing, am getting an initial tartness with suggestions of bramley apple, overipe plum skins, nice soft mouthfeel, a little furniture polish on the nose, this is really very good. Big kudos to Tap Social Movement for unleashing a sour on the unsuspecting folk of Oxfordshire, I can only really recall the likes of Compass and Lovibonds ’intentionally’ releasing sours before these guys.

Bottle at Drunk Dry, Kidlington, Oxon at a MTB evening with Tap Social Movement, Thursday 2nd February 2017. Pours dark brown with a slight off white, creamy head. This is a pleasant stout that ticks all of the right boxes, a steady roastiness giving way to some coffee and a gentle bitter bite. Nice mouthfeel, good carbonation, I enjoyed this but found it lacking just a little something, it perhaps needs just a little tweak or two to make it stand out from the crowd and turn it from being a very decent beer to maybe something that I would return to on a regular basis.

Keykeg at Drunk Dry, Kidlington, Oxon at a MTB evening with Tap Social Movement, Thursday 2nd February 2017. Warm orangey/gold in colour with a white head, the coldness of this is blunting the aroma a little. Fruity in the mouth, predominantly citrus with a real lean towards grapefruit coming through. Good carbonation leaving a nice soft mouthfeel, dry finish, really very good, I had three of these this evening. A6 A4 T8 P4 Ov14 3.6
