Beer?

[threebikesmcginty]

At risk of bringing this topic back on track, I checked out the Camden Town Brewery takeover of O'Reilly's in K-Town as I had to wander down that way this morning. It was supposed to open in June...and has been 'crowdfunded'! I'm sure it will be ready to rumble soon...the glaziers are doing the ground level sashes and the front doors are on!

I see the interior's finished.

Another lovely day on the peninsular and another lovely pint, this time a Gower Gold....

@theclaud you were spot on with Rhossili, recognise this pub?

That's some refit, DP, you don't seem the red kitchen and Minnie Mouse print types!

Ta dah!

Mrs DP has just sent me this from that Brussels. Harummphh!

Wild Beer Epic Saison, yank hops, pretty good stuff, not epic but good.

That's a 9%er, at lunch time too, disgraceful....

Get her to nick the glass, the crescent moon is kinda cool.

Dunkel Fester (Wychwood Brewery, 4.4%)

As seen earlier in the thread, of course.

Nicely dark and autumnal, with a main taste that's rich and coffee-ish, some treacly/caramelly sweetness and a bit of bitter hops to finish. Another decent brew from Wychwood, I reckon.

Mrs M says: "Very nice." (Look away now, Richp) and went on to opine that these dark, malty beers are very much her sort of thing.

Unicorn Black, goldings hopped stout, it's a decent stout, roasty and bitter but not quite as rich and full-bodied as they suggest, I've tasted worse.

Moving into that stout time of year, must get some Sammy Smiths Oatmeal and Guiness Export, maybe a Kernel or six...

i've just knocked up a great big hop bomb. Huge amounts of warrior bitter hops and a big dollop of centennial at flame out. I'll ferment it for a week and then dry hop it with another great wodge of centennial. It's vaguely based on Stone's Ruination IPA.

Sounds like a badass mofo of a beer, DP!

Hope so. Don't think it will be very subtle!

@srw is gonna love it!


I'll have his share.

M&S saison by Adnams, lovely stuff, as crisp and fresh tasting as it gets with a wowzers finish.

Mrs M is clearly a woman of taste. I must find a bottle of two of that one.
