Get yourself a bottle of Marshmellow from the Oxfordshire brewery in ...er... Marsh Gibbon, Buckinghamshire. It really does smell and taste of marshmallow.

Great looking beer DP!

Sort of beer coloured?

Amongst other attributes, yes. Now feck off.

Yup- looks like beer - but I can assure you having lived in Kuwait for a while and having brewed many hundreds of gallons of beer from very basic ingredients that what looks like beer often doesn't taste like beer

One of my friends brews his own from ingredients although not on an industrial scale like DP!
He gave me a bottle of his latest creation, which from the first sip, promised to be a good drop. Unfortunately some over-enthusiastic potato peeling meant that the first sip was also the last. Tosser!

I'm encouraging one of our own in his brewing endeavours and having tasted some of it I'd say DP's doing sterling work. So you lot can bog off.

How far shall we bog off, oh sage one?

Stone launch their Berlin brewed beers in Europe today. Quite a few places in the UK have it..

I'm off to a tasting in Breda at Brouwerij Frontaal, a small brewery started up a couple of years ago. They've just completed a 120,000 EUR crowdfunding campaign.

Bam! This is one where you need the cap, cos there's no label.

(Had a bit of a Crax incident on the pour)

A case of 6, delivered to an address in the UK would be 106 Eurospondoolees.

That does seem quite a lot but if I were in a poncy bar and they had Westie in there for £12 I'd buy a bottle.

Doesn't sound too bad - my local beer shop charges 10 EUR a bottle.

A few years ago, I had a sesh with Mangaman in Amsterdam and he dropped 30 euros or so on a bottle of aged W12. I was in the same bar last Friday and they had Dark Lord 2009 for 250 EUR!

Blimey!
Hey DP, I showed the butcher lad who brews a bit, your reviews of your own stuff and he started checking out brewing kits. He mentioned the Grainfather; what was the one you bought and would you recommend it?
