Tried "The Leafer" a collab with Bad Co yesterday (didn't realise it was a Bad Co collab when picking it up...).I'm not overly impressed with Salt'a stuff tbh.
It's a bit 'Meh'.Will keep that in mind, I've yet to sample that brewery yet.
Thoughts on Northern Monk's Origin IPA?

It wasn't one I'd recommend tbh, it was a really average NEIPA.
I also had "Buddleia, butterflies, rust and messages" 6.5% IPA by Verdant, which was lush. Full of stone fruit flavours, thick and juicy!
Wednesday and day out with the wife meaning I get to sip a Fierce Beer and Amundsen Brewery collab called "Stardust Galaxies" 6% NEIPA, very fruity with loads of hops at the start. Finish a little weak but a good beer nonetheless.
I'm not even certain she'd give me the "fruity at the start" tbhVery fruity at the start, but a weak finish?
I bet the wife says the same about you.
Fallen and Six degrees are really good. The others less so.December's Beer52 theme is Scotland. From the light box:
Crossborders - Hop Series Pale
Six Degrees North - ETAP DDH Pale
Fallen - Wanganui - NZ Pale Ale
Fallen - Platform C IPA
71 Brewing - Apres Apricot
Six Degrees North - Onmium SIPA
Atlas - Wayfarer IPA
Windswept - American IPA
Despite having lived only a 5 minute walk away from the Pie Factory for the past 9 and a half years, I went for only the 2nd time ever after work on Friday. I thought the beer in there was really good, especially the Sledgehammer. I think I'll have to start going more often!
The kids have just gone to bed and I am currently enjoying a Hiver honey beer while Operation Christmas Presents begins (which pretty much means my wife sorts it all out while I sit on my arse).
Enjoy.Went in one of our local offy's yesterday, hadn't been in there for ages, found they stock a small stock of ales, had a Woods Shropshire Lass last night, just about to open a Bathams
