Very lemony and very hoppy for a kolsch. I'd argue that it's too hazy for the style. More like an IPL/Kolsch hybrid! The lemony texture is super easy-drinking. Floral and straw aroma. A little strawberry yeast esters. Generally speaking an accomplished beer even thought it's probably more of an IPL take on a Kolsch! Nice work Andy. Purchased from Siren. Drunk 28/06/2020. Can.

Special birthday release. Small batch. Bottled. Bought from the brewery. Lots of white foamy lacing. Dark chocolate malts/black appearance. Lots of chocolate and cacao and coffee grains.

Nicely hopped. A little leather. Blackcurrants. Fruity number. Well-made. Very easy-drinking. Nice roasted malt. Not too much. A little burnt toast and biscuity malt profile.

Loads of stonefruits! Huge prickly piney feel. Lots of flaked oats. Superbly balanced for a NEIPA. Not astringent. Boozy but not too much! Lots of soft summer fruits. Sherbet bon bons. Not too oniony either. An excellent example of the stlye.

Bucket loads of stonefruits; soft malts and crushed lemons. Zingy finish. Lots of mandarin and some exotic tropical fruits such as guava! Lots of balance. Oats. Excellent use of dextrines. Really drinkable and super clean. Excellent water profile. Very nice fresh IPA bought from the brewery directly. Note I am an investor and I have early-access to their beers.

Session beers are really hard to make. Especially on small scale. This has a lot of grapefruit and mandarin notes and sherbet bon bons; the lemony ones you could buy in a bag in a sweet shop! Lots of resinous hop texture. Sugar dextrines. Well-balanced and super-crushable. Amazing effort considering how young the brewery is! The switch to Flaked Oats worked massively for the mouthfeel! Gorgeous! --- Beer merged from original tick of Prologue on 28 Sep 2019 at 17:42 - Score: 8. Original review text: Really impressive work just needs more Oats a Conan yeast and a late hopping of El Dorado
