Martin Shannon is drinking a Paradiso by Two Tribes at BEER + BURGER WILLESDEN
Had a taster. Was unimpressed. Ordered a half. Over time it has improved a fair deal. Sweet passion fruit, slightly artificial, with a little sharpness and thick mouthfeel. I think it could be nice on cask. Not sure sharp works with the sweet thckness

Martin Shannon is drinking a Gueuzérable Tilquin (2020-2021) by Gueuzerie Tilquin at BEER + BURGER WILLESDEN
Big farmy itchy wet greenery and slight manurey aroma. Big boozy flavour that gets softer and sweeter over time. It's a real unusual beautiful delight. Maple syrup but I just get a honey sweetness. Complex. Around 4.1ish...

Martin Shannon is drinking a Rustique (2024) by Burning Sky Brewery at BEER + BURGER WILLESDEN
Love this. Peachy, Aperol spritz, forest fruit and boozy. Irn Bru / Tizer colour and has some similarities. Lots going on. Mild itchy quality. Funky Irn Bru! Has some spice too. Pepper. Light balsamic.

Martin Shannon is drinking The Mariner, The Barrel... by Beak at BEER + BURGER WILLESDEN
Light, spritzy, savoury, light vinegar, light sweetness. Might be getting beer batter? Refreshing. Don't get much rhubarb. Quite thin. Would be lovely in the sun but that won't happen in the UK. Some lemony citrus.

Yeehah. Boozy bourbon vanilla, nutty, spicy (some cinnamon) and forest fruit port flavours. Not as sweet or adjuncty as you'd expect. As balanced as a 14% crazy stout can be. Chocolate definitely prominent. Top smashing.
