^ looks interesting!

Keeping it simple here, then had Mexican Chilli Imp Stout by Magic Rock, wasn't all that I hoped for but nice chilli warmth to it.

Magic Rock - micromachine. 👌

V sessionable at 2.8%

So good, isn't it? Super tasty.

Yeah - went back and got another to go with the keralan fish curry I'm making! :)

Micromachine is lovely.

So is this.

So good, particularly when it's their first ever beer.

I suspect they had a good time perfecting the recipe.

Norwegian IPA. Picked up their Session IPA too.

Marble Butterfly Guard IPA

Keen to have a try of Wild Weather Ale's Peanut Butter Milkshake IPA.

Anyone know anywhere that stocks Augustiner Helles in Islington, Hackney or Waltham Forest?

Koutská dvanáctka

This is one very tasty lager.

A few fun takeaways from the local's Scandi-fest

the super high (10-11%) alcohol content in most of the omnipollos ruin them for me. loads of great sounding ideas but they always seem to end up just tasting of weird liquorice.

That Perdition is fantastic

Had the Noa last night and it's deserving of its reputation. Delish. I don't mind the high alcohol content, think it's probably necessary to carry some of the flavours

Had Bristol Beer Factory's "Hawaii Juice-O" last night. Enjoyed it a little too much. Send caffeine...

For retail sales Whole Foods in stokey church st is the best price I’ve found. £2.99 for a 500ml bottle

I'm still a relative noob to craft beer so maybe I need to work my way up to them until I 'get it' properly.

Nice one. Cheers!
