Encoder Beers – Limiter (5.5% ABV)

Hello, and welcome back to the Eternal Hoptimists, Encoder Beers is a brewery that I am not too familiar with however after a bit of digging I find that they have an interesting backstory in which two brothers were talking to an elderly gentleman who told them that there was once a microbrewery in theContinue reading “Encoder Beers – Limiter (5.5% ABV)”

Kirkstall x Noonchi Cake – Cherry Chip Imperial Chocolate Cherry Cake Porter (9.0% ABV)

This is a collaboration beer inspired by cult Leeds bakehouse Noonchi Cake’s cherry-chocolate flecked signature flavour, ‘Cherry Chip.’ For me porters can be a little bit dull with muddy flavours, so it will be interesting to see how this one comes out. Being an Imperial Porter, it is brewed to a stronger ABV but willContinue reading “Kirkstall x Noonchi Cake – Cherry Chip Imperial Chocolate Cherry Cake Porter (9.0% ABV)“

Magic Rock Brewing – Lemon-dayz Cloudy Lemonade IPA (6.0% ABV)

Many beers have bold citrus flavours, mainly through hops, but some also have added flavouring. Lemon is not the most obvious one to add, I find that lemon flavouring added to food and drink can be overpowering, and this is an IPA not a sour. In this beer though, it is lemons rather than flavouringContinue reading “Magic Rock Brewing – Lemon-dayz Cloudy Lemonade IPA (6.0% ABV)“
