Deya Brewing Company - Tappy Pils
It had been a pretty exhausting, but enjoyable day at work, spent between screen staring and giving my muscles a good workout with some much needed physical labour. There was a light at the end of the tunnel though...Deya Brewing Company's - Tappy Pils' for the train ride home.
As an enthusiastic beginner on the beer tasting ladder I'd heard some fantastic things about the Deya Brewing Company, a local brewer based in Cheltenham, so I was excited to see what this beer had to offer.
First off, this design of the can definitely doesn't give you the attention seeking acid-like trip that some do, but the alligator with the 1980's Miami Vice-esque hand writing on a black background is still pretty snazzy.
Now the good stuff! After dealing with a bit of opening foam from being carried in my bag (and trying to deal with it in a vaguely cool and inconspicuous way next to my fellow passenger) the fresh, clean and almost zesty smell that hit me reminded me of rolling flowery fields on a summers day. The taste that followed didn't disappoint either, as I received another rush of those Saaz hops and a enjoyable fizz and glow across the tongue.
As a pleasant surprise, the taste didn't lessen as time went on, and a really enjoyable and enveloping light, but certainly full experience carried on for the 33 minutes it took to finish this beer.
At 440ml, 5% volume and a punchy glow to the mouth it certainly provides you with a taste experience that I'd recommend.
About 15 minutes left on the train now to watch the world go by, but I'll catch you tomorrow for my latest Tipsy-Train Beerblog.
Cheers!

There's a light juicyness and soft feel to the drink, but you've certainly got that powerful IPA also marking it's territory. The hops certainly took control, but that very, very light bitterness and not too heavy feel in the mouth meant that I kept coming back for more with no doubt at all.

That sour blackberry rush powers through with those Pacific Gem hops which really opens your eyes, before a firm, but balanced bitterness arrives at the finish. As the swigs continue, that fruity taste never loses its oomph and as you grow more accustomed you certainly feel the salt running throughout.

For a red ale I was expecting too much of a malty or bitter side for my liking, but it was actually a very smooth and gentle taste. There's certainly a light bitterness and soft malty background to the drink, but the strong hoppy and fruity punch to it is really enjoyable.
