There's no such thing as bad beer - some just taste better than others

Not that I'm complaining but I'd happily share 10 deg with you, bringing us back down to 30 and you up to 26.

I had it at the weekend. It was okay. Mildly hoppy Irish red. Meh

Having a Galway Bay Voyager. Fantastic beer, says on the bottle "pleasant hop aroma", understatement of the year.

That looks great anyway Molc. I know widmer brow are t necessarily craft but there stuff has always been good when I've had it.

I'm having a few bottles of Little Sumpin Sumpin which is one of my new favourites. Had a few SN hoppy lagers on tap earlier which I thinks aged out now and while it was ok it's nowhere near as good as the bottles I had a few months ago when the hops were really prominent.

Love this stuff. Had their Heady Hills flanders red a while back, jesus but it was tasty!
Was in Buncrana recently, just across the lough from Kinnegar and the pub that's usually fairly well stocked with their stuff was dry. I wonder is there a supply and demand thing going on?

I can see why it's so popular, the balance between the super bitterness, danky/piney hop flavours and the lightness is different to any other IPA/DIPA ive had. Not in another world to the best irish beers though.
