September and October 2018 Beer Report

It's the end of November in the year 2018 but I am just writing my beer report for the months of September and October.

In September and October 2018 I got to drink some varied beers, a different one each time and so here is my report on that beer experience.

I drank both what may be called craft or microbrewery beer and mass varieties.

First, however, I should say that I can't go into much detail as October was already a long time ago in beer drinking terms and all I remember is my general impressions and I can't comment much on the color or head of brews as I consumed them mainly at dacha which presupposes drinking beer out of cans and bottles without pouring into anything let alone proper beer glasses

But I will rate beers to best of my impressions on an "out-of-five" scale.

So here goes - September.

Jaws Brewery Oatmeal Stout. Jaws Brewery is a microbrewery here in Russia.

Didn't like this one, 1.5/5.

BrewDog Cocoa Psycho Imperial Russian Stout.

This one was liked but with reservations, 2.9/5.

Russia's Gletcher Bowler Brilliant Ale and IPA - these ones are swills but still drinkable in a cheap way, especially the green one, 2/5.

Gletcher Friday Avenue American Lager (center), 2/5.

Russia's AF Brew Hentai American IPA.

American hops are supposed to be in it, but I wasn't that much impressed 2.95/5.

Another installment in October aka my Oktoberfest.

First, some group pictures.

BrewDog Elvis Juice Grapefruit Infused IPA.

Bitterness, liked it well enough, 3.0/5.

Russia's Salden's Pryanik Stout 8.0 Edition.

High ratings on Rate Beer but I didn't like it that much so 1.5/5.
