Pamela Beer is Jackie Brown

Appearance: Very dark and has a reddish tint to it when held up to the light. Light sandy brown head which laces around the glass.

Aroma: Quite a strong smokey soya smell which kind of reminds me of a tame version of BrewDog’s Tactical Nuclear Penguin. Like a strong [...click the heading to read more]

1000 IBU! Jeepers this bad boy is going to be hoppy!

9.6% ABV

Reviewed by RD

Colour: A murky blood orange red like a hazy sunset as I held it up to the light. As it sits on the counter it appears to be a bit darker. A nice finger of dense foam head that is tan [...click the heading to read more]

Green Gold

Green Gold = Hops… I think?

7.0% ABV

Reviewed by RD

Colour: Hazy, virtually opaque and ruby-red/brown in colour. A head of off-white foam perched on top with a thick creamy consistency.

Nose: Surprisingly there wasn’t much on the nose to begin with. I expected bags of big sappy hops. As it warmed up the hops began to [...click the heading to read more]

All Others Pale

Mikkeller

A pale ale like no other

Reviewed by RD

6.0% ABV

Colour: This poured a very hazy and vibrant deep amber colour that was edging closer towards orange, a peach-like colour. It was topped off with a substantial creamy head that too had that orange tint.

Nose: A great big aroma of sweet caramel malt, fruity esters and [...click the heading to read more]

Stout made with weasel shit…tasty!

Reviewed by RD and MT (Guest reviewer BK)

10.9% ABV

Colour: This imperial oatmeal stout poured very thick like motor oil. Opaque black with a mid/dark brown foamy head. One of the darkest heads I’ve ever seen on a beer.

Nose: The aromas that emitted from the jet black liquor are of bitter [...click the heading to read more]

Info: Ok, I need to start this by thanking Rich from http://www.mybrewerytap.com/ who supplied me with this lovely Mikkeller brew! It was all part of a beer swap where I got the better end of the deal.

Just a note to say that mybrewerytap is a great site [...click the heading to read more]

Simcoe Single Hop IPA

Mikkeller

 

Nice concept, good IPA

6.9% ABV

Reviewed by RD

Colour: I clumsily poured this with a huge off white head. The body formed a rich vibrant dark amber, clean and well carbonated.

Nose: Cherries, sweet malt, maple syrup and maybe a little varnish or the smell of clean copper?  That probably is due to the resinous pine notes attributed [...click the heading to read more]

Beer Geek Breakfast

Mikkeller

Stout is not for breakfast, take it from me!

ABV 7.5%

Reviewed by RD

Colour: It glugged out a thick jet-black body with a dark brown mocha head. Very lively and foamy. Towards the bottom of the bottle it really slopped its way in to the glass, lumpy? What is in this?

Nose: Massive, I can smell it from [...click the heading to read more]

Drikkeriget GIPA

Mikkeller

A German IPA, brewed by Danes, tastes like it is from the USA? Confusing but tasty!

6.6% ABV

Reviewed by RD

Colour: A very hazy orangey-amber body with a foamy pure white head.

Nose: Zesty citrus fruits, orange and peach and the Tettnang hops just follow through to give it an aroma similar to a German wheat beer.

Taste: [...click the heading to read more]
