Desperados

An old fav of mine, recently discovered they changed the recipe from using real tequila to tequila flavouring

Old recipe 6.7/10
New recipe 6.2/10

You can barely taste the difference but in my heart I know. It’s still cracking though

Today we are inside a windmill with our beer. Somehow this brewery seems to stock every pub in Amsterdam, they have a large variety that we sampled.

Nijpa 6.8/10
Brouwerij’tiJ IPA 6.7/10
Zatte Tripel 6.6/10
Brouwerij’tiJ blondie 6.5/10
Brouwerij’tiJ Columbus 3.6/10

The Nijpa was delicious, IPA was pretty standard but I’m soft on IPA, the Tripel was 8% but very tasty, blondie taste creamy, the Columbus was 9% and interesting but no way I’d be able to handle many of them

Today we are at The White Hart, London’s “oldest licensed premises”. Drinking Cosmic drop berry punch beer, a mouthful. From the creators of the amazing Neck oil, it’s weird, it taste like two drinks not mixed properly. A fruity cider at first and then a okay beer at the end. 4.4/10

Damm lemon 6.65/10

It’s nice, tastes like lemons and limes. You’d have no idea you were drinking a beer at all. Has a strong sharp taste

Rhys rates beer has gone on tour

I find myself in hogsmead, the three broomsticks, tucking into some dragon scale lager, dark forest ale and butter beer.

The dragon scale lager isn’t too bad, it’s nothing stunning but it’s not offensive. I give it a 6/10, not very high and to be honest my surroundings are probably blinding my judgment

The dark forest ale has a toffee hint to it, it don’t work, I dunno if it’s just me but toffee doesn’t go with a strong thick ale taste. It’s sickly, I’d never manage multiple pints of this. One visit to the pub would result in diabetes. 4.2/10

Butter beer, it’s like drinking liquid caramel. Taste brilliant to begin with but again I’d never manage more than one. You’d be rolling me onto the Hogwarts express. 3.5/10

We then head over to the leaky cauldron to try Daisy root ale and wizards brew.

Daisy root ale, you can taste what they were trying to do. It’s awful, no two ways about it, foul. It’s nasty ale with an after taste that hints of toothpaste. 1.2/10

Wizards brew, I won’t lie I’ve lost me patience. The only good thing about this drink is I can wash away the nasty ass Daisy root taste, disgraceful. If this is what’s setting the bar for our food abroad, no wonder the world thinks our food is rank. 4.6/10

We finish in Moe’s tavern for a duff.

Duff, as you would expect it’s a very stereotypical beer. With a pool cue in my hand I could throw these back. It’s completely middle of the run but completely inoffensive. 6/10

None of the drinks came in fancy cups or mugs or glass tankards, just plastic cups, sad times

Neck oil 8.7/10Still a cracking beer, a beer for victory. Especially on a day like today Saucony 10km PB
