Sherwood IPA – Tasting

It has actually got to the point where this blog is coming in useful for me. I have 6 different beers either in bottles or the keg and after 3 weeks away I have forgotten what some of them are. So here’s the current list from oldest to newest.

XXXX lager (keg)
Brupacks Colne Valley Bitter (blue top)
John Bull Irish Stout (gold top)
Sherwood IPA (green top)
Edme Superbrew Gold Weizen (plastic bottles)
Milestone Lion’s Pride (gold top)

School boy error using gold tops twice, that could get confusing.
Anyway back to the point at hand which is the tasting of the Sherwood IPA. I’m actually drinking this one as I type. It had a very good head when poured and is about the right gassiness.
Tasting wise it’s pretty nice, a little bland on first taste, perhaps a little bit of sweetness, but after about 3 seconds a pleasant bitterness on the tounge. Not the best IPA I have done, I think the Muntons had a better flavour.
