Robin F.: Most of the beers I tried yesterday at the festival would have benefited from kegging and chilling!
John A. is drinking a Mojito Sour by Tiny Rebel Brewing Co at Shrewsbury Beer, Cider & Perry Festival 2017
Smells like mouthwash, but almost does the business on the taste front. Prefer the Magic Rock mojito. Just a third.

John A. is drinking a Not Into Yoga by Dark Star Brewing Co. at Shrewsbury Beer, Cider & Perry Festival 2017
Pleasantly fruity. Chilled and on keg, I bet this is knob on. This is warm and on cask and it's still good. A half.

John A. is drinking a Wild In the Cask by The Wild Beer Co at Shrewsbury Beer, Cider & Perry Festival 2017
Don't often get disappointed with Wild Beer, but this just hasn't got my motor running. It's okay, but lacking that spark.

John A. is drinking an IPA West Coast Special Mosaic Motueka Citra by Howling Hops at Shrewsbury Beer, Cider & Perry Festival 2017
Well I think it's this one. Thank god for Howling Hops at these festivals. Beer of the festival for me. Bit early but I've got a feeling.

LEP amaze again. Funky, hoppy, slightly sour. Mellow booze hit. Perfection. "Combatative, repetitive, don't life just funk you out?"

John A. is drinking a Further by Verdant Brewing Co at Tiger's Upstairs Relaxation Suite
"Small......far away". Further proof, if it was needed, that Verdant rock at the moment. Thick, murky and fruity with a booze hit. Superb.

Very murky. Great Citra showcase, and that experimental 431 always seems to guarantee a winner.
