Weird Beard Co, Boring Brown Beer

Maxed out IBUs from Weird Beard on this one methinks - Chinook is primarily used as a bittering hop I understand? Not really my cup of tea I don't think. Pleased to get a chance to sample it though.

Kernel Brewery, Chinook IPA

A sweet IPA from Kernel - we had a home made (paste included) Thai Curry (which was excellent by the way...!) which more or less annihilated my palette, but maybe lemon and grapefruit in this? Massively bitter aftertaste. Chinook is primarily a bittering hop if I understand it correctly, which might explain apparent lack of discernible fruit/resin in favour of almost overwhelming bitterness.

Partizan, IPA - Columbus, Chinook & Cascade

An almost perfect IPA for me: lighter in colour than my previous Partizan IPA (which was almost red). No taste of the abv. Drunk very fresh (almost within a couple of weeks I think).
