Grabbed a bottle of this the other day. It's an English strong ale. Basically a stout or porter but heading more towards an English mild.

Great stuff for a pint or so.

To the people here who like IPA, I recommend Bell's Two Hearted. It's the best I've had. Not too hoppy or anything, just perfect.

    But I like too hoppy that why Stone is my favourite American brewer, they are too damn generous with their buds.

    Luca. Have you tried the meantime beers? Dem some fucking tasty brews. Thornbridge make some great ales too, their jaipur ipa and Pacific pale ale are :tuttosport:

    Grab them in waitrose, pricey but totes worth it (doing my best to sound middleclass)

    I like the Thornbridge ales but they are a bit commercial for my taste.

    There's lots but I usually go local and small so it's hard to name a brewery. For worldwide brewers I like Mikkeller a lot and I like Stone.

    We have the same here but mostly with darker ales which I'm only really keen on in November/December, the rest of the year i prefer pale ale and Belgian Trappist ales so it's harder to find local brews, nice and hoppy!

    I'll keep an eye out for Stone and Mikkeller :tup:

    I don't like dark ales, pale ales are my passion, the hoppier the better.

    @Hængebøffer

    I have tried the Twisted Thistle and I love it, New York Lager is really good for being a lager. I am really intrigued about the other two mostly The Bitter End.

    Here's what I caught today

    The one in the middle is a local from the town I live in and the one of the right is probably my all time second favourite IPA from Omnipollo brewery, it's called Nebuchadnezzar.

    The lager is the only one I know. I like it to and it was on sale. The bitter end is great (bought two). Boston is okay'ish. Looking forward to the Twisted Thistle.
    I tried a Founders IPA on tap once (don't know if it's the same) and it was really good.
