its the night for summat different I think, I'm drinking a bitter rhubarb martini - stirred, not shaken

oh man - dude doesn't check to see if it's a bottle-conditioned, then chucks everything in the glass! Also - his horizontally stored bottles scare me a bit....

He's got a good stock of beer in! I note he chucked the beer straight in the glass without checking on the bottle conditioned aspect, where do you stand on sediment DP, I prefer to try it without first and keep the beer as clear as possible? Reminds me, used to go drinking at a local round here called The Dun Cow, the landlord kept a good stock of Thomas Hardy Ale in when it was still in production and he used to chuck the whole lot in pretty much as the guy in vid, I had to ask if I could pour my own.

As it's a weekday I've not had anything, you two disgust me.

I always leave the fudge out, it can have .....gastric effects.......

When I went on a little tour of the low countries a few years ago with a mate, we got very confused in a small (and bloody great) beer bar in Rotterdam when one of the beers that Tim ordered came over with a little shot glass on the side with the dregs in. We sat there for an age debating whether it should be knocked back, dropped in, admired lovingly etc.... In the end we decidded that seeing as it was Holland it must be up to the individual and so just left it there for fear of ruining a good beer with the dregs...

I've seen that done with Duvel; it was pretty impressive actually. The guy poured most of it into a glass and then the yeasty bit into a shot glass.

Saw that in a Duvel ad, they offer you the choice of dreg or dregless, why ruin a fabulous beer colour like duvel.

I tend to bung it all in to be honest, unless it's been stood up for a while! There is though an Amsterdam Brewery, "Brouwerij 't Ij", who seem to specialize in massive lumps of yeast and I do try to give those a miss.

On Thomas Hardy, I think I saw a headline earlier in the week that whoever has the rights at the moment is planning to go into production again - I'll see if I can find the article again.

oh, I like t' Ij, they make some lovely beers

Here we go, Thomas Hardy Ale. Bit of a weird article to be honest...

They do, cpb. Columbus and Struise especially are top class ales.

It's all rehash until it gets to the two paragraphs on reviving the beer and who's brewing it. Good news though.
