Booze: Beer Here Kama Citra review

By -

Brewery: Beer Here (Denmark)
Beer: Kama Citra
Style: Brown Ale
ABV: 7%
Bought from: http://www.beermerchants.com


Apologies for the poor camera quality. Need to buy a decent camera soon. Remind me, yeah?
 

I bought this because I was intrigued. Firstly, I’d never had anything by Beer Here and secondly, it’s a brown ale with citra hops. What the hell?

I opened the bottle; it appears dark chocolate brown. I was sharing this bottle with my brother and when I poured it into the glass that he was using it had pretty much no head but in mine it did.

Aromas are tropical fruits, caramel, chocolate and bitter coffee.

Flavours I got were coffee, chocolate and grapefruit then as the beer had been in my glass for a while and warmed up I started to get insanely sweet brown sugar.

In addition to this, as it goes down I got a really weird sensation… like that kind of sensation you get when you eat a trebor extra strong mint.

This is possibly the weirdest beer I’ve ever had. I can’t really explain it fully… a brown ale which is a grapefruit hop-bomb. I like it and I would definitely like to drink it again.

More soon…

Beats: Album of the Month – August

If you follow me on twitter or read my ramblings on this here blog, you would’ve seen that I did a Beer of the Month post. It was a difficult decision to make. You may also notice if you follow me on twitter that I listen to A LOT of different music; I think I got something like 30 new albums in August alone which is ridiculous. You’d think with that much new music, picking an album of the month would be difficult, right? Wrong. This was a simple choice. So, which band wins the almighty honour of Booze, Beats & Bites’ first ever album of the month? The award goes to…

Lidl Currywurst - A Review

Ah, Currywurst! A Berlin institution and indeed, if you've been to Berlin and didn't eat Currywurst whilst you were there, I'm not sure we can be friends. My first Currywurst was on my first ever trip to Berlin in August 2016 where I stumbled upon a stall at the Street Theatre Festival on Alexanderplatz; I grabbed a cheap €3 plate as well as a beer and sat in the warm sun, and fell in love. Later on that trip I visited the Currywurst museum (yes, such a thing exists) and although a novelty, I feel it was possibly the wurst (SEE WHAT I DID THERE?) eleven euros I've ever spent. The premise of Currywurst, for those who don't know, is simple: It's effectively sliced boiled and fried sausage coated in a sweet curry ketchup and topped with curry powder; you'll usually find it served with chips and mayonnaise on nearly every street corner in Berlin. I'd seen the famous CurryKing brand of microwavable Currywurst in supermarkets in Germany but never did I e

The Session 65: So lonely…

The Session is a monthly event for the beer blogging community which was started by Stan Hieronymus at  Appellation Beer . On the first Friday of each month, all participating bloggers write about a predetermined topic. Each month a different blog is chosen to host The Session, choose the topic, and post a roundup of all the responses received. For more info on The Session, check out the Brookston Beer Bulletin’s  nice archive page . Despite still being a young blogger with not the greatest following, I really wanted to get in there early. I’ll probably get about two responses, maximum but screw it. It’s all fun, right? Speaking of fun, going to the pub with a bunch of mates is great… you have a few beers and a laugh, generally a fun time and all. I love going to the pub with mates but sometimes I go to a pub alone and I enjoy it. Other people say I’m weird for this as there seems to be a stigma attached to being in the pub alone – alcoholism.
