Dublin Guiness Porter. I know, Guiness, 3bm will be turning in his grave. Not bad though, 1.50 a bottle, for an English pint.

Tried the other one tonight. Very similar look, carbonation and head, like they were mass produced by a big manufacturer or something.

Deeper taste, more molassy type thing and a slightly more relaxed feeling due to the higher alchohol content one assumes. I prefer the other one.

Tesco* revisionist DIPA, brewed by Wychwood, hopped with citra and chinook. Not bad, not overly anything really, see how it gets on...

Agreed Mort - it's bollix innit?

I had a 'Taste the Difference' IPA from Sainos just now - not bad at all.
CBA to get my glasses to read the small print and see who the brewer was!

It was a limited, sadly, but "Stormy Point" (Cheshire Brewhouse) was a belting example of a DIPA.
 
After last weekends disappointment with the Honey Ale, I spotted "Gold Miner" by the same brewery in the Co-op this evening - much better, but still a bit meh. Brewed in the New Forest by The Free Miner Brewery.

Used to be Marstons (I got a few bottles of it for my birthday last year). Very nice, iirc!

If you want my advice don't buy beer that's been mucked about with, adding fruit and bee dung is wicked and it's wrong.

I'd be getting some of those excellent Scottish beers down me before the Yes vote goes through and the whole country gets flushed down the pan. Maybe.
