    Andwell - Red IPA, not a brewery I particularly like though very "Locale" to me ,I find most of their brews rather bland and non-discript ,however tried this and found it very hoppy and flavoursome despite being only 4.3% or was it 4.6% ? Anyway it was a decent drop so worthy of entry into the good list.

    I had forgotten all about this list, I would add to the good Conwy Riptide (a low ABV Black IPA), Windsor & Eton Conqueror Black IPA, Clarence & Frederick IPA, London Fields Shoreditch Triangle IPA and Acorn Barnsley IPA (I think they made this for the last Spoons fest so I'm not sure if it would count).

    Apologies if any of these are already listed!

    The Gun on the Isle of Dogs is having an IPA festival on 13th-15th September. The beer list looks almost as good as the one we've assembled above.

    In that case I would add both of these to the Good:-

    Siren Craft Brew - Sound Wave West Coast IPA
    Siren Craft Brew - Liquid Mistress West Coast Red IPA

    I didn't realise when I tried them that they were "officially" IPAs.

    It looks like the beers are going to be served on gravity in a "covered garden". Unless the weather changes dramatically then unless they use effective cooling systems the beer is going to be warm, not good for this style of beer.

    The £10 Special Advance Ticket gives you three halfs and an item from the barbecue, which would seem to be all high quality sausages.
