Cloudwater – NE DIPA Enigma Mosaic (8.5%)
Hazy golden colour with chunky sediment, thin white head. A mix of grassy and citrus fruit hops over a slightly sweet malt base. It is a bit of an enigma as it doesn’t shout goodContinue reading
Half Pints – Pothole Porter (7.9%)

Andaman Gold Special (6.5%)
Stronger than standard lager from Myanmar which is standard pale yellow with minimal head. Nothing special really just an inoffensive lager with slightly more alcohol than usual. The finish could be smoother but in 40°CContinue reading
