I suspect we will see plenty more go this year
Unfortunately yes. Elland announced insolvency today. Brewing at Brick and Brew by Numbers being moved from London to Black Sheep in Masham (all under the same ownership) to cut costs, and well-established Adnams looking for a cash injection......Master Bean said:
Cheltenham Church Beer Festival featuring Irn Bru with ginger (awful), Verdant IPA (decent) and a sickly sweet oil slick 16% stout. I preferred some of the lesser strength options.
I’ll have to find a can of the fiery iron brew. I’ve had the original and it was brilliant, they also do a vanilla version. ecsrobin said:

Think I'll reconsider next time. (Though at that price point it's a choice between those fake craft corpo wkers, or literal corporate wkers)

While I don't mind the odd IPA, particularly in summer, I find all these variations a bit OTT.......what next? A daffodil/ rose flavoured IPA.......There's hardly a beer channel that doesn't review them. In my opinion, it's one of the most over rated beer styles around......
Could not agree more.I like modern styles of IPA including American East and West coast styles but the whole hipster thing with silly flavours has become tiresome. It feels like a competition to outdo one other and differentiate to maintain market share whereas in reality some of these firms need to go bust or else revert to nicely hopped offerings at sensible ABV's
