Beer?

Following on from all these exotic locations...Soho, Edinburgh, Scotland (other) Scandinavia etc. I ventured forth to meet Rob (son) at Tate Modern. Essentially for a catch-up, a wander around and a sure-fire Kernel on the 6th floor, whilst looking out upon whatever floated London's boats...
As he works for one of the sponsors, we had free (thank goodness) tickets to the " World Pop Art" exhibition. Don't go. If you want superfluous pretention, save £14.25 or so, and read this thread from the beginning. It was a poorly set out idea, lacking impact, presentation and artistic talent...ideas executed with little craft. But hey! Kernel was upstairs...
Firstly, we ate a bit and in the café downstairs offered Punk - at about 15.60 a litre/ £4.95 a bottle. 'Ok it's Christmas...'
Then upstairs for a view, perhaps a seat overlooking the Thames and St Pauls. ..supping a Kernel or two - watching the Christmas market circulating in the forecourt also.
"Is no Kernel" was the reply to my initial request. 'Eh?' The bar served this beer no longer! A list was produced, including Brewdog's 'Jackhammer'. That'll do I thought..."Is no fridge - room temperature only"
OK. Cutting a mammoth story long, the feasible option was a Tate 'own brand' brewed by Harbour. Not bad actually, with district grapefruity notes (that could be dodgy washing up, mind...)
And the afternoon passed, the exhibition submerged into the River, along with a thousand thoughts. :snowball:

I'd be mindfulness trying mire Wild Beer after that sour shïte.

I'm making my own list , back laters...
More 'kasi' than 'Nin' then. Wouldn't be much good for the "Pourmeister" amongst us. :rolleyes:
the addition of apple juice, wild yeast and a whole heap of hops. It teams a big aromatic bouquet with a livelyness...
This one looks interesting.

Neck Oil Session IPA (Beavertown, 4.3% abv)

I think this is the first "proper" beer I've had in a can, and very good it was too. It came to the table ice cold, with an ice frosted glass to pour into, so I let it sit a little to warm up after pouring. I drank it while still fairly cold (but not ice cream headache inducing) and found it very good. I question the definition of >4% brews as "sessions", personally, but the flavour is superbly judged, nicely citrussy, hovering between tangerine and grapefruit and not so over powering as to make it a one pinter, nor so feeble as to be unmemorable. Definitely one to go back to, and one I'd like to drink cellar, rather than fridge cold, to see if there's more taste lurking in there, and of course, to get a review from Mrs M, who was unable to accompany me this time.

That sounds like two more reasons to drink the Neck Oil from that well-known multinational Led Zeppelin influenced psychedelic outpost. Good thinking Reverend! :smile::snowball:
 
A few more interesting words...I wonder how this all sits now, given the signatories to 'United Craft Brewers'
Hey guys!


You may have heard that at the London Mash State of Craft Beer round-table discussion we announced our intention to launch United Craft Brewers – an association of British craft brewers. This has been a long discussion between all of us over the past year. We were all looking for a community here in the UK that was dedicated to the interests of craft brewers and that fit in line with our core values. We want UCB to be that fit, with the help and collaboration of craft breweries across the country.


Our mission statement for UCB is to promote and protect the interests of British craft brewers, their beers and the community of beer enthusiasts. We will be sharing more details about this in the future, but ask for your patience while we pull all the details together. Know that to accomplish our goals, we’ll need to do so through focusing on core values of education and quality, along with promotion and protection.


On July 1 we’ll be launching a website with more information and the opportunity for interested craft brewers to sign up to become a part of this new journey. This isn’t our party that other brewers are just showing up to: we want this to be a collaboration for all of us to contribute to, that’s why we’re planning a meeting for early September where we can discuss where we see the state of craft beer in the UK, and where we see the future for it.


The initial response to UCB from the craft brewing community has been incredibly positive – thank you guys! This shows that there is in fact a demand for the UCB association within the community, and that we’re on the right track.


Stay cool,
