All previous ratings are from when this was first released in 2014. We've got two ridiculously high ratings and then two much lower ratings. So my job (as a Poo-bah) is to make sense of all this. Let's see.
Notting Hill Riot has a name and bottle that strikes me as appropriate packaging for this trendy, now expensive London neighborhood. No riots there, but probably a thoughtful joke.
But I'm liking its Looks: volumes of foam that never stop; even as I finish the bottle... a treat. Smells and Tastes are less eventful; milds are just that, pleasant drinking in which you focus on the conversation instead of the alcohol or hops... also a treat for a malt-head like me; but I suspect off-putting for the typical American palate. Feel is fine with a gentle finish.
My first from Devil's Trumpet, I went on their website (it is basic; giving the impression they focus on their brewing.) But they clearly love what they do and have a pretty good following for a brewery only in its 4th year. I like how they get the most ratings (and one presumes money) from not just their IPAs, but also their stouts. They only distribute in a 15 mile radius (it seems) of where they brew and have a taproom. So I am glad to have tried this and if I happen that way again, I will look for Devil's Trumpet.
