Spent a pleasant half hour in the new Siren bar in Reading (RG1) last Saturday while waiting for a train and tried one of their new brews. It's a reworking of an old beer first brewed somewhere around 2014/5, and this time around is called "Eleven Finger Discount" (I believe it was originally called Ten Finger Discount) It's a pokey IPA hopped exclusively with NZ varietals and spun with Cedar wood in a Spinbot machine (unavailable back in the day). It's an amazingly punchy hit of tropical fruits, spicy wood and bitterness, a great example of a modern IPA and at 7.4% perfect in half pint measures (as per the picture)
