Rye Pale Ale (Shipyard)

Rye Pale Ale (Shipyard)
Name: Rye Pale Ale
Label: "Dry hopped with amarillo & citra for a tropica fruit aroma. The Maine Black Bear has a long, fruitful relationship with the state of Maine as the mascot of the University and this brew is in homage to this fruit loving American native"
Brewery: Shipyard
ABV: 4.3%

Tasting notes: "Brewed with Rye Crystal malt, Shipyard Rye has a spiced, nutty taste balanced with caramel toffee flavours. As with all Shipyard beers, this brew is packed full of American hops and the Amarillo, Citra, Cascade, and Summit combine for an upfront punchy orange aroma and lingering citrus tang."

Game:  Eaglemoss Alien and Predator Figurine Collection brings us probably the best one so far: Issue 7 Alien Xenomorph Warrior Figurine. Great paint, no seams, cool figurine with big swishy tail (yep, swishy is a word).

Rating: 9/10

Rye Pale Ale (Marston's for Tesco)

Rye Pale Ale (Marstons for Tesco)
Name: Rye Pale Ale
Label: "Revisionist American Hop - Cold Conditioned, Dry hopped with Amarillo and Citra - Spicy with citrus hop"
Brewery: Craft brewed by Marston's exclusively for Tesco
ABV: 4.3%

Rating: "Bank's Brewmaster Simon Yates', IPA with a twist, inspired by the American craft beer movement, using Rye Crystal Malt to create a spicy, nutty flavour. Brewed with five different American hop varieties."

Game: A shout-out (is that still such a thing?) to Creative Assembly. They gone and made one of the best games I've ever played!  Alien: Isolation completed, time to start the challenge map things. Usually when I finish a game I mostly play something else... mostly.
