Lost its hop kick......or maybe its just English.


I had an English IPA about a month ago with B at Bulldog. It was better than I expected. B, do you remember the name?

As the song goes "only the good die young" so I'm sure I've got a number of years left...

Membership does have its perks... Keep an eye out for the Guava Grove Sour variant that should be hitting bottles soon. The Catadors may have the first crack at them..

Halcyon by Thornbridge. It was an English IPA only in the sense that it was brewed in England. Very much an American style though. Very nice.

That's it. Yes, it was very good and not at all what I'd expect from an English IPA.

Yes, the guy that brews for them likes american IPAs. Can't ever tell if that's fresh in bottles when I see it around town.

Glad you liked it though.

Yep, we had it on draught, so I think it was a fresh one.
