Beer or Wine?

July 4, 2009 under Uncategorized

Sometimes wine is just a more practical choice then Beer.

For starters wine (should) lasts longer then a pint. Meaning less time going back to the heaving bar!

Many beers

February 21, 2009 under Uncategorized

Many drinks sampled this evening – all pretty fine!

Thwaites – Liberation: A dark, malty, slightly smoky flavour with a smooth finish.  Very drinkable. Not for everyone – it could score higher for some.  4/5

Thwaites – Lancaster Bomber: Fairly standard ale with a bit of a tang.  3.5/5

Brakspear – Oxford Gold: An awesomely smooth, pale, flavoursome ale with a bit of a tang to finish.  Everything about this beer is spot on. 4.5/5

Springhead – Roaring Meg: A delicate blonde ale, not quite flavoursome enough for us all but a place for drinkers of light ale. 3-4/5 (we couldn’t quite agree about the score for this one!)

Badger – Fursty Ferret: A good stalwart of the westcountry. Straight down the middle.  3.5/5

Badger – Tangle Foot: A very gentle ale with a bit of colour and very very smooth. Good but nothing special. 3/5

The evening has only just begun…

Beer Reviews: Jail Ale

February 8, 2009 under Uncategorized

Jail Ale Dartmoor BeerIts late – so I’m gonna be quick. This is a fine tasting beer from Dartmoor in Devon. Brewed in Princetown – home of Dartmoor Prison, therefore the name “Jail Ale”.

A gentle hoppy taste this is well worth while having a try if you see it in Tescos, or even better if you can get to try it in Princetown (I believe the pub is called The Plume of Feathers Inn).

If all else fails you can but it from here.
