It's Saturday, which means it's #beersaturday, not that you need an excuse to drink a beer of course! Today though is a new beer.
I do most of grocery shopping online at least for the heavy and bulky items.
Last time I was ordering from Sainsbury's and one of the recommendations they bombard you with at the checkout was for this beer which was on special offer for less than £2. I think it was £1.50 and I was not too sure about it so only clicked on add 1 to my basket!
Well today, I fancied having that beer!
I do like Mango and quite like Passion Fruit. The label does say Hints Of ... so I was expecting you to still taste the Pale Ale.
Taste the Difference is Sainsbury's own range but meant to tastier or higher quality or so I belive.
That being so, I thought the beer would be tasty!
According to the label...
a perfect ale to enjoy during the summer months.
Serve lightly chilled. Pairs well with BBQ food such as burgers and hot dogs.
It will go with food, nae bother thought I and knocked up some baby food to have with the beer...
The baby food being some mashed potatoes, brocolli and chicken fillets.
Initially I was surprised. I do like an IPA with citrus fruit, but I found this too fruity and not beery.
It was a mix that did not go well!
I made a coffee to see if I could finish the beer 🤣
This is a Hall & Woodhouse Tropical Pale Ale.
According to my wee gem Geminin AI ....
According to the label ....
PALE ALE WITH TROPICAL FLAVOURS
