If you are thinking of craft beer in London, then you are thinking of a flavour bomb exploding in your mouth, because that is exactly what craft beer is; extremely flavoursome, extremely aromatic, pleasing to the eye, with a wide range of styles suited for different palates. Best of all, you can order your favourite craft beer by searching for craft beer near me through any online store, and get it delivered right to your doorstep.

As you may know, flavour is a combination of the different senses, so, here are the main taste sensations you can get with these artisan beers.

  • Smell – Smell is an aromatic experience and one of the more dominant senses affecting our perception of flavour. This can happen in two ways; when we sniff the aroma with our nose and our brain chemically interprets the flavour, or via the chemical reaction that happens where the nose and mouth meet.

  • Taste – The chemical reaction of taste is perceived through the taste receptors on our tongues, as well as through our taste buds. The main taste sensations we feel with our tongues are sweet, sour, bitter, salty and umami (protein based).

  • Touch – Our tongues feel textures, temperatures etc through receptors similar to those on our skin. A combination of these senses helps perceive the flavour of what is in our mouths, which is why it is important to serve your beer at the right temperature to truly savour the flavours they offer.

  • Experience and atmosphere – There are many other minor details around us that affect the way we perceive the taste of what we eat and drink. For example, past memories and experiences, the ambiance and atmosphere of where we are, influences of the people around us etc.
