Watered down local brews. No IPAs


Most good places in London are outside the city center/ tourist areas. Hackney has a bunch of good places like.....ummmm....Cock Tavern and Dukes Brews. Brewdog in Camden is good too for Brewdog and Mikkeler stuff.

Doubt it, pretty sure the hippies up here aren't naming stuff after a show that is about killing animals.

R2R. I only took a few pics. I'll post tomorrow, but it's not exactly a red bean noir. Tomorrow is last day for a taste. FYI.

Results:



The sweetness of the Racer X gave it away by the nose. Pliny and Abrassive similar nose. Pliny MUCH smother. Abrassive was abrassive in a good way.

Funny thing is that I never really notices how malty the Racer X was until tonight.

Once I get some Heady in I plan on doing a similar tasting with HT and Pliny. Curious to see how they stack up.

Had Abrasive before and it's a great DIPA, I think Pliny is more balanced so it beats it slightly. Both great beers tho.
