PSA for Brighton types (possibly just @rob.orch) - the Rose Hill now have Arise on draft as well as their usual Belgian bottle selection. It’s a big thumbs up from me.

The newest Laura Slater NM IPA is pretty grand, good series

I’m drinking a Tefnut grapefruit and pineapple imperial gose.

I don’t really like the taste or the texture. It’s what I imagine drinking a Lilt milkshake would taste like, only with booze.

@JaguarPirate - probably one of yours.

My weekly haul.

Really enjoyed Gravity Well’s Hubble Bubble.

Anyone had Abyss’ Pale Deluxe? It’s only 4.8% but tastes like very much like a DIPA. Worth a look.

Liked what I’ve had so far by Abyss will have a look out!

I bought one last week for…erm…final can at 2:30am purposes. I was expecting a generic low strength ale but got the taste of a DIPA from a 4.8%.

I’m no expert but the bloke at the shop was in agreement too.

Aye, I had a couple of cans earlier in the year. Easily the best of what I’ve had by them. Loads of flavour for a 4.8% pale. Excellent beer tbf

Unity to stop stocking their guest beers online and make them drink in or takeaway only. Totally fair decision, means people need to visit other explain Indies for the latest releases. But from a selfish pov, :sob:

Fao @Severed799

This stuff worth checking out?

Think I’m going to be in Southampton on Sunday eve with the family, any local places worth checking out?

@hankscorpio

I’d say (depending on time and logistics) you’d wanna be checking out…

Dancing Man
Belgium and Blues
Unity’s taproom
Butcher’s Hook

Unless it needs to be family friendly, then I’m a bit stumped
