Name: Graffiti IPA
Label: "Forged in Cornwall"
Brewery: Firebrand Brewing Co
ABV: 5.0%
Tasting notes: "Graffiti IPA is a punchy little IPA at 5.2%, a lovely biscuity malt base gives the backbone, allowing the (mostly) US hops to shine through, giving wonderful aroma and flavour of citrus and tropical fruit." Think they been drinking too much Graffiti IPA because the front of the bottle says 5.0% abv yet the back says 5.2% ! Say what?
Game: Ending of Dragon Age: Inquisition was a bit of a glitch-fest but enjoyable none the less. **SPOILER** if you get to the final fight with Corypheus and it glitches at the third stage of fighting him, the loading screen comes up and you wait for ages for what you assume is the next cut-scene, but you end up back fighting Corypheus except he's stuck at zero health and is bobbing up and down. Just run down all the flights of stairs and bingo, the cut-scene plays :)
Game and ale reviews all in one handy place, helping you to game and drink excessively. Bite size reviews for those in a hurry or people like me who can't be arsed reading more than a couple of paragraphs in one sitting.

Robin Hood (Springhead)
Name: Robin Hood
Label: "A chestnut-brown traditional bitter with plenty of hops - Brewed in Robin Hood country by Springhead"
Brewery: Springhead
ABV: 4.0%
Tasting notes: "Robin Hood is an aromatic, traditional, chestnut-brown English bitter. It is malty in flavour with a dry, hoppy finish. Robin Hood has been lovingly brewed by master-craftsmen using only the finest English ingredients to ensure that each bottle is as good as the last."
Game: Crikey, Dragon Age: Inquisition is epically long... Feel like I've been playing it for years and I'm still unlocking new areas to explore! Not complaining though (really). Although maybe games these days are getting a bit too big? Almost overwhelming in their vastness with too many distractions that detract from a coherent story-driven experience? Personally I think their immenseness is great, I'm just a bit concerned that I'll start to accrue a backlog of unfinished gigantic games as more games get released over the next few years?

Zeit Geist (BrewDog)
Name: Zeit Geist
Label: "BrewDog is about breaking rules, taking risks, upsetting trends and unsettling institutions but first and foremost, great tasting beer."
Brewery: BrewDog
ABV: 4.7%
Rating: "Idiosyncratic black lager." It's lager right, but it's black! So it's lager but it's still a craft beer so shush!
Game: Been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition a bit too much. The save file seems to suggest somewhere in the region of 100 hours :( Feels like I'm hardly getting anywhere as well. The codex itself contains as much content as the entire Game of Thrones books and the Bible combined by the looks of it. So. Much. Reading. Highly enjoyable though. Dragon Age romance update: just got blown off by Josephine, and not in a good way, basically she declined my request to go for a walk :(
