Fin Profile - Brewver

Can picked up from Fristo Getrankemarkt Freising and consumed at home Sunday 30th November 2025 after a fab' few days in Frank in Freising and München, including watching Bayern Munich v St Pauli. We're listening to Adorable - Against Perfection and later cooking Nidi di Tagliatelle al forno (baked pasta nests). Pours hazy mid gold, huge foamy white head, sticky and clinging to the sides of the glass. Great bitterness, this is a very good interpretation of a West Coast IPA, they've nailed it. Piney, resinous and with a wonderful bitter streak throughout, lovely hoppiness, great balance. Lovely beer.

7.4/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 6 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8

Can following a recent tap takeover I understand, had this at Higgins Ale Works, München, Saturday 29th November 2025 after going to Bayern Munich v At Pauli with Heidi and Shaun, they probably won't read this but a big thanks guys for the tickets. Pours hazy yellow with a filmy white head. Soft mouthfeel, however Loz is right the aroma hasn't got much going for it, drinks super easy for an 8% beer. Nice DIPA.

7.5/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5

Bottle at the Munich Brewver Christmas gathering at Jonas's in Garching Friday 28th November 2025, in the company of Jonas and Ursula, I picked this bottle up from Mr Hop, Vernray, Netherlands. Pours dirty puddle brown with a filmy off white head. There's a tart, slightly woody edge, full on the mouth, warming, I like the barrel ageing and this is very much in the vein of a classic Siren barrel aged beer. Good

7.1/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 7 Flavor 7.5 Texture 7 Overall 7

Bottle at the Munich Brewver Christmas gathering at Jonas's in Garching Friday 28th November 2025, in the company of Jonas and Ursula, I picked this bottle up directly from Riegele brewery on Wednesday. Pours pinky reddish with a Barbie pink blushed filmy head. Raspberry ripple ice cream, Ursula mentioned this and completely agree. Soft mouthfeel, aged in wood shows, a little sweet but there's a gentle tart edge. I like it, I really wasn't expecting it to be like this but it's an interesting beer.
