How is it!?!?

I would like to know the same thing. From the promo stuff I saw it sounded like they actually cared about the beer being a good one.

Had some lavender iced tea at a farm SWMBO took me to so she could pick a bunch of fresh lavender. And we now have more fresh lavender than we know what to do with. I suppose a lavender mead is calling my name...

And now gravity sample of my Ordinary Bitter.
 
Now some Hard Cider.

Yup, I thought the same
It looks like a delicious malty English brew
 
More of this, say what you will about putting fruit in beer. It's 95 out and this tastes pretty darn good.

Doesn't change the flavor of the beer a ton but it makes the strawberries taste divine.

It is pretty good. I mean, Robinsons make a lot of decent ales so it was never gonna be awful.

I think Brucey did spend a lot of time making it better, but in the end it's just an ESB really - quite a nice one mind.
 
Put me in line for Beatification!! I plan to have several of the RR sours for the week of my birthday and I don't have this one.
 
Devil Dancer finally made its way to my neck of the woods. I was really excited, but it's not exactly what I was expecting. It's a lot fuller bodied than I was expecting, pretty much an American barleywine. It's a good beer, don't get me wrong, but if I didn't know it was a triple IPA, I'd tell you it was an American barleywine. Might seem like I am splitting hairs a bit, I just don't think it is what it claims to be.

My white IPA

White IPA isn't as dumb as Black IPA, but it seems like more imaginative or at least accurately descriptive names are in order for some of the newer hoppy styles.

I think Triple IPA is perfect for that one. Triple IPAs are always nasty.

Agreed, mine is more accurately a wheat ipa, but it's still more pils than wheat. Maybe just a hoppy Belgian wit? It's pretty citrusy


Sea dog was marketing theirs as a light ipa today which I thought odd.
