It’s been a Williams Bros. type of weekend at th It’s been a Williams Bros. type of weekend at the Kent-Williams wigwam…

First up, a good beer to tuck into after a heavy day of Roman around ! It’s a real thirst-quencher with it’s blend working very nicely, being both crisp and malty with just enough hoppiness to reveal that IPA quality. 

Secondly, a very meaty Brewski Bergér that has it’s IPA taste profile front and centre with a surprisingly sweet cider-like quality on the rear that you get with a lot of lighter Belgium brews. 

Once again, the Williams Bros, much like their centre court sisters, strike this one right over the net…BANG !

For such a complex beer, it’s very quaffable with quite a soft hop presence and a nice warm finish. I do feel some of the subtleties are overshadowed by a rather smoky flavour but overall, I guess I’ve been Brought in the act once again…no regrets !

This week in beer. Our beer review of Fear of the This week in beer. Our beer review of Fear of the Dark English Stout will be about later today. Saturday Lager with the funky emboldened can was alright, got a taste of cloves which was unusual, but I was drinking it on a Wednesday not a Saturday 🤷‍♂️ Tempest Brewing CO’s Vermont Session was a deliciously hazy wee tin 👌
Ukraine ? No, me Digger ! This ain’t a bad bre Ukraine ? No, me Digger ! 

This ain’t a bad brew…it’s crisp and definitely refreshing but the only thing putting me off is a strange saltiness that would probably stop me from nailing a few in succession. 

Not the worst charity I’ve ever partook in…that would be the leafleting I did for ‘Melt the Icecaps Quicker’ last year. Not a lot of interest in that one.

I hope everyone had an exquisite Jubilee Bank Holi I hope everyone had an exquisite Jubilee Bank Holiday…I, Tombot, engaged in mucho boozy ballyhoo and checked out a couple of local bottle shops for some very tasty treats. 

First up was an American Barley Wine from the Netherlands- a variation I’ve never tried before. It’s slightly stronger, a bit more hoppier and a lot more fruitier than it’s English brethren with a dark cherry taste, bordering on coffee. It’s dense flavours can be a bit overwhelming but overall, a very complex and well put-together brew. 

Also, another first-timer and another from a local brewery that I really couldn’t quite work out wether I dug or not. A unique effort for sure, but I think the large-ish ABV didn’t particularly mesh well with the subtlety of a mild, and the flavours got a little lost in the alcohol.

Fantastic finds !

Something Juicy for a Sunday night. Tonight we’r Something Juicy for a Sunday night. Tonight we’re continuing our binge watch of Ozark season 4 and I wanted something fruity and hazy to drink. That luxurious can design caught my attention in the fridge.

The drink is nice, slight fruity and pale to taste. Not the juicy-ness I was expecting but it’s nice.
