Andy O. is drinking a Peanut Butter Raspberry Jelly Stout by Gibberish at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)

Andy O. is drinking a Chai Huahua by Gibberish at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
I wanted to like it, possibly too much. Not bad but not memorable. Bit light in all aspects
Taster
Andy O. is drinking a Bière De Saison Damson by The Kernel Brewery at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
You always expect and Kernel always deliver. More wood than expected along with soft brett and big fruits.
Taster
Andy O. is drinking a Petite by McColl's Brewery at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
A lot more Belgian than I expected, in a good way. Light yeasty notes and bigger esters. Hops come in with pine later
Cask
Andy O. is drinking a Spratwaffler by Time and Tide Brewing at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
Rimmer's recommendation bans not wrong. Fruity summer session beer. Citrus aromas but cascade takes over and a bitter finish
Taster
Andy O. is drinking a Rhodesian BA - Wild Turkey by Brouwerij Frontaal at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
There's a lot of barrel going on here. Smells like wild turkey. The beer does come through finally and is worth the wait

Andy O. is drinking a Smokin' Gun by Big Hand Brewing Co at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
Unconvinced by this one. Smoke is there but there's not much beer behind it. A little thin

Andy O. is drinking a Créme Bearlee by Beartown Brewery at CAMRA Great British Beer Festival (GBBF)
Putting the sweet in sweet stout. Vanilla and a nice roasted note lift it from cloying
