Then onto some crap hipster joint on Brick Lane to watch the match. Ended up in Bethnal Green at the Royal Oak where I had a pint of Cow catcher IPA. Ok ish but the one in the Ten Bells was much better.

Oh...I also had a couple more pints of the Long Arm IPA in the hotel before venturing out into Pie and Mash country

It's a bit more complicated than that...
I need to go and deal with 3 days of email soon, so I've back to the Old Stove to get some strength.

With a sandwich....

A decent stout.

And another round of tasters, this time the hoppy ones. Wish me luck.

Hoppy.

The wheat beer was very hoppy. The Galaxy SMaSH (?Single malt, single hop) was hoppy but in a pleasant enough way. The Black IPA was extremely hoppy. The double IPA was extraordinarily hoppy.

For me these beers are just unbalanced and pall very quickly. I can sort of see why someone might like them, but only in a very small dose.

After that lot I pottered around a bit and ended up at a trendy coffee shop, where I had cold-brew coffee (interesting, but not an experience I'll look to repeat very often) and ice-cream. Including Chocolate Stout ice-cream made with Pike Brewery XXXXX.

Best pie n mash is " shudders " South of the river these days in Bermondsey
