Same, hence why I bet I could find some in the loft. Too much engineering to throw away......May be useful when we have a glass shortage lol

Old ford export stout by the redchurch brewery out of east london, Abv 7.5%, IBU 77. Bottle conditioned.
Have been neglecting my beer of late and my beer responsibility's so i thought i would give my self a treat, first new craft beer i have had for a while and Oh WOW!
Lots of chocolate and coffee on the tongue with a thick oily mouth feel that slides in a beautiful hoppy burst that in turn finishes with a lovely bitter punch.
Really lovely stout and something i will definitely buy again. Highly recommended.
I must add that i feel any one who appreciates a Sierra Nevada pale ale will find this very satisfying

It certainly is, perfect size for 330cl bottles
The kernel brewery London 1890 export stout out of London (obviously), Abv 7.2% IBU(?). Bottle conditioned.
Loads of black coffee on the nose with smooth oily mouth feel that delivers a rich and hefty stout satisfaction through notes of vanilla and nut with a slightly toasty undertone, warming on the tongue with bitterness around the edges and a subtle hop profile.
I love the kernel brewery, they do not seem to be able to do any wrong in my eyes and are a fantastic example of British craft beer, I urge any one and everyone to try as many of there brews as you can. Today though i have to say the old ford export stout takes the crown for me, its much more impressive hop profile and punchlines give it the edge and I will be trying any ale I can find brewed by them, both fantastic ales though and highly recommended.
