Steven Jones: Bloom takes top spot on Helsby’s reviews thus far. Not many saw this coming
Cameron Helsby is drinking a Jamboree by East London Brewing Company at The Nellie Dean
Wasn't convinced at first. Seemed like a lacklustre Doombar. But... Then I noticed the subtle zesty orange undertones 🥵 Really changed my perspective on this beer. Now feel like I'm on the continent in the sun. Solid beer. Would sink a few more.

Cameron Helsby is drinking a Heart & Soul by Vocation Brewery
I've just had a Verdant Bloom, so take this review with a pinch of salt, as any beer pales in comparison. Fairly pleasant and refreshing, with tropical tones. The aftertaste though... Where is it? I'm getting notes of water, and water.

Cameron Helsby is drinking a Bloom by Verdant Brewing Co at The Crown
A seductive but elusive creature. Oh how many times on my quest has this cruel mistress evaded me? Oh how many times have I been catfished by other Verdants? Now I see why... As the great Thanos once said - "Perfectly balanced, as all things should be."

Cameron Helsby is drinking a Wu Gang Chops The Tree by Pressure Drop Brewing at Clapton Craft
Light and refreshing. Tastes like the first drop of summer. Honestly, I reckon this beer is so fresh, it actually hydrates you. A very pleasant reintroduction to the world of craft beer.

I've never nailed a flavour profile this hard... But this is Lipton ice tea in a beer. Transports me back to the ski slopes. Only thing is, I'd much rather have an actual ice tea...
