Just polished off a bottle of Kernal table beer and now onto a bottle of London Fields brewery Hackney Ale.

That's insane. Had to Google to see if you were losing your mind. Hope you haven't btw after drinking it.
Where do you drink it?

Don't wait for me!
The 9.5% stout in Craft at the mo is beautiful.

I'm not overly surprised. It started off really well and then diversified and went down-hill rapidly. It tried to be too many things to too many different people.

What's the brewery? I'm off to the un-tapping of a new Chinook lager tonight.

And trying to pass off San Miquel as craft is a piss take. Given they had "San Miquel (Spain)" on the chalk board maybe it was.
Ordered any of the Alice Porter or Mashtag from Brewdog yet ?
I've seen a few movies in my time that back up that theory!
Edit: beaten to it lower down the thread!

Not yet. I took a delivery a week ago with contained the recent Imperial stout from the Abstrakt series, the IPA's Not Dead Series, Libertine Black Ale, Hardcore IPA, Dead Pony plus a bunch of Flying Dog beers including the wonderful Atlantic lager.
Wife is going out now so I'm going to make a start on the IPA's Not Dead

Their Tactical Nuclear Penguin is even stronger!
You can buy it in all the Brewdog bars I have been in.

In the North Laine last night and had a few pints of Laine Best Bitter, very nice indeed.

I don't like Laines beers, fairly tasteless I find.

I tried this at a place called Monk's Bar in Stockholm. They have one for beer, one for wine and one for whisky. You're given a menu and select by country. This is Dutch. Very liquoricey, chocolatey, silky, lovelyness! The bottle top was coated in a wax seal

I was really disappointed with the latest IPA is Dead, maybe just me. The Alice Porter is fantastic, probably my fave Brewdog beer for a while!

Hmmmm. Only drunk two so far. The Goldings was alright, nothing special though, but the El Dorado was poor; it didn't have a lot of flavour and tasted a bit weak/watery. But the first series was brilliant and you can normally rely on Brewdog IPAs to deliver. I will add Alice Porter to my next purchase.

As I love Imperial Porters I will look out for this. Sounds great.

Yes, That pretty much explains why its worth avoiding craft beer and sticking with the innovative, small local brewers who are producing some gorgeous pints.
