Christopher Smith is drinking a Decadent Beast by Pressure Drop Brewing at The Old Shoe
Plenty to like here for those of us with a sweet tooth. Nice creamy chocolate and sugary toffee. Does have a slightly sour finish though.


Christopher Smith is drinking a Trinity by Track Brewing Company at The Old Shoe
A bit too bitter and not fruity enough for my taste. It’s perfectly decent though, but I have had much better from Track.

Christopher Smith is drinking a Rancho Rosa by Drygate at Untappd at Home
Fruity and perfumey with a dry bitter finish. Tastes more like a pale ale than a lager though.

Christopher Smith is drinking a XXX Rye Triple Reserva Bourbon Barrel Aged by De Struise Brouwers at The Harlequin
Disappointing from a flavour perspective as there’s hardly anything here apart from a boozy, fortified wine vibe. It’s strong though so that’s a plus point.

Thick and juicy, but more tartness than flavour.
