We carry on with Rebel IPA from the outstanding @tinyrebelbrewco

Crisp and clean nose with citrus undertone. This is more of a Helles than an IPA if truth be told. However, it’s fruity, refreshing and drying to finish. Not overly bad this.

A delightful brew this. Great hop flavour with a seductive floral bite and superb dryness. Light bodied for the ABV but this keeps on giving.

Moving on to Dundead IPA from Holy Goat.

Subtle malted notes in this West Coast IPA combined with a hoppy and piney bitterness. Big, dank hops in this give that piney bitterness and lasting drying finish. Incredible!

A couple for the afternoon begins with All In The Reflexes Grapefruit & Guava Sour from Pomona Island.

Fresh and mouthwatering nose with tart grapefruit and subtle guava. Thick, fleshy haze. Not overly sour but it does hit the jowls to get them going! Lovely stuff!
