Bottle from the Lidl bumper bundle. Didn't realise it was sedimented and completely arsed up the pour. Anyway, it really doesn't taste of much and what I do get is yeast. But that was probably my fault.

Not one of their best. Insipid and a slight taste of vomit.

Can at home. Good pour but the flavour was a bit odd. Almost meaty.... Anyway, a fair effort and drinkable.

Bottle at home from the bumper bundle I picked up from the brewery. Good pour and an oh so classic English IPA. Huge bitterness that perfectly cut across the palate. This is my kind of beer.

Can from a Waitrose and shared with a good friend at the end of an excellent meal and some great red wine. Lovely pour and a great head courtesy of the nitro. Insane first sip with flavours all over the place, but it quickly settled down into a top, bitter and smooth stout.

Sharp spiky hops dominated and there was nothing else. I've had many beers that are better.

Bottle at home. Lidl or the Beer Shop in Hitchin, but i can't remember which. Good deep colour but a short flavour and mouthfeel. Tastes a bit like they've added caramel. Not the best.

Bottle from the Lidl bargain bundle. It's been a long weekend and I've not had a drink since Thursday. Yesterday was a fleeting trip to Nottingham to celebrate the birthday of the oldest daughter and I've been working in the garden all day. So I'm knackered. Completely knackered. Hence two fest beers and a bottle of 2016 claret to go with the chicken that is roasting. Anyway. It's OK, it's got the rich malt and the kick i would expect. In fact its pretty good.
