Craig fae the Vale Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 In Aberdeen for a couple of days. Went to Brewdog Castlegate before dinner and had halves of their own Custom Shop and Pulp Patriot. Both very good. Also had halves of Three Hills Heidrun (pretty good) and Vault City's Love Hearts - which I loved in a can and was even better on draught. Stopped back in after dinner for some tins and am starting with the Passion Fruit version of Hazy Jane which I'm.enjoying immensely. Even if it is being drunk out of a coffee mug. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Not Pomona Island's best, but still pretty good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 One of Neon Raptor's sixth anniversary beers. A fantastic DIPA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Stratus NEIPA from BentSpoke in Canberra. Nice and hoppy and a strong 7.2%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Fierce Bar in Aberdeen for a couple before dinner and the theatre tonight. Yonder's Double Berry White Chocolate Cheesecake. Absolutely outstanding. Fierce's Peach Lager, very good, nice and fruit forward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 A good read with a good beer. Mayday Hills Saison from Bridge Road Brewery, Beechworth Victoria. Very subtle fruitiness that doesn’t overpower it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Dehydrated walking down the road so a Coopers XPA out of that big tank with the purple circle. Good stuff when it’s 38.6C outside. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Was driving past Ellon so thought we'd pop into Brewdog HQ for lunch. Easy Punk (session version of original Punk) and Preach raspberry and peach sour in collaboration with Mammoth. Enjoyable half pints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Red IPA, a limited release from Big Shed Brewing. The train is an old Adelaide suburban train that locals called a Red Hen. No air conditioning other than windows and manual sliding doors. Seems the we’re in use until the 1990’s although I thought it was the 80’s. When smoking was banned on trains but still permitted in stations the seasoned smoker would have their fag in mouth and have it lit as before their feet he touched the platform. The beer is good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Pint of Shindigger's Mango Unchained at Nice n Sleazy before the Rock Orchestra at the Kings tonight.

Archie McSquackle Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 High Wire Mandarin - mandarin & orange blossom pale ale. Slightly sour mandarin taste but fairly insipid I'm afraid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTee Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Brewdog Elvis Juice. Brewdog Hazy Jane. Harviestoun Bitter and Twisted. Skye Gold. Skye Black - now. Orkney Dark Island - night cap. Had all before. All decent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Completely agree, all decent and can't complain about rounding off the evening with a Dark Island. Lovely beer although I had one of my rare beer aggressive moments on it. Anyway Cold Hand IPA from Dark Revolution Brewing is described as crisp, dry, fruity. Have to agree with that and I'd enjoy a pint of this if I got it in a pub. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTee Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Was tempted to ditch Brewdog stuff after the allegations of staff bullying or something like that. Don't drink much anyway. Still need to try Overtone stuff, but would probably need to be an online order. Always gets rave reviews. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Got to give you a greenie after my comments above. Anyway, a Juice Tygrr isn't the best of the double hopped IDA'S, a bit lacking in taste. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
