Craft Beer


By the cringe, I've discovered a new species, The "Keep on Swinging" set.

Broadsword calling Danny Boy, are you receiving, over,

You're coming through cloudy beer

I'm sorry, what, say again over

Cloudy beer, cloudy beer...

There's theme to threads like this in that the cognoscenti can't abide any from of critique to their chosen peccadillo, in this case "craft beer" which the rest of the world just calls "beer". My (valid) argument is the fashion for cloudy beer. If you purchase said pint in an ale house how do you know it's meant to be like that or is a dodgy pint? I enjoy a couple of beers & my local(s) often have guest ales. Sometimes the young kids behind the bar don't know if it's meant to look like that or not. Many, many people will have suffered from a "bad pint", personally, I'm not taking the risk.

Beer with twigs/floaters/mist will be sent back and/or down the sink. Apologies for upsetting you proper beer boys, I'll leave you to your chat...
 
We found a canny place in Malaga called Deluxe Beers or summit like that. Had a half of Basqueland IPA which was very nice and another local brew- a session ipa from Malaga- I forget the name, but it was decent .. Anyway, we ended up paying €26 for two pints...we didn't return.

If you drink in pubs where the servers don’t know about the beer they’re serving, you’re drinking in shit pubs.
 
It's like Rocky, where he blocks punches with his own face.

Further startling revelations this morning.... a beer that isn't supposed to be 'misty' will be sent back if it is.

And there’s form for people wandering into threads and slagging stuff off they have no clue about.

Don’t let the door bang you on the arse on the way out.
 
Had a session IPA called Schrödinger's Bear in Bridge Tavern on Saturday. Only 3.4% but very decent for that type of strength, bit more flavour than you normally get with milder ones

Grow up man with your bollix. Many pubs have young kids working in them, usually working off uni fees or first job stuff. If you frequent CAMRA employed, only men over 40 with beards & an intimate knowledge of hop genealogy, then well done you. The rest of us live in the real world.
