Greene King – Very Special IPA 7.5% (Chilled)

BING BONG!!!! Bags of hops on top of what taste a little like Innis & Gunn. Big bouncing flavours bring a party to your lonely tongue. Have it warm and it is wet and lushious. Have it cold and the 7.5% alcohol still carries those flavours over the pallet. There is one bad point about this drink. My milkman doesn’t deliver it.

    @sofakingdrunk66 This one does allow a good chilling. Maybe its the alcohol content carrying those flavours about.but this is one of the very few beers that is improved with cold.

    @bluelebowski LOL. Or a frosty receiption.
    It does seem that way in many pubs though. You ask, “Can I have one of these that isn’t cold.” The answer is often, “Do what?” Follewed by a strange look of ‘Why?’

    Maybe you should ask your local publican if you could climb on his grandmother…maybe you will get a beer at room temperature!

    Sounds like the brewers knew this woud be served chilled for the majority and made it so it tasted lovely either way. I am ordering six of these on Tesco. Tiny bottles but big balls.
