Price was for 4 not 6, still cheap like for the quality. I loved hazy Jane but prefer that tbh

6x330ml?

4 X 440ml for 6 quid. But I went again Friday and they were 8 quid

Have you had Thornbridge Green Mountain?

Have you had Thornbridge Green Mountain?

No but I have a few cans in a mixed box I bought from 1 of the beer sites. Any good?

Very much like hazy jane, but better imo

First time I’d heard of Elvis brew

just texted our lass to get me some if shes in Sainsbury’s

A grapefruit flavoured beer sounds a bit strange and I'm not usually a fan of wacky craft beers - just give me a good no nonsense IPA - but Elvis Juice is dangerously drinkable especially on a hot day.

Polished off the 48 box. Think I’ll get another. The fizzy water stuff is rank.

Vocation Heart and Soul is class, pretty much anything by Cloudwater (apart from the stuff in Tesco’s now which is ironically produced at Brewdog, it’s ok like but not as good as their other stuff), Magic Rock also make nice beers.

Isn't it the other way around? Jaipur based on punk MK1?

Nope. Martin Dickie worked at Thornbridge and was on the team that developed Jaipur. Later left and setup Brewdog with James Watt

Ah right. So the MK1 copied Jaipur?

Aye it certainly had similarities.

Jaipur at 2 packs for £9,

I remember buying a box of that last year. I knew I'd made a mistake after opening the first one. Awful stuff, canny design though.

 

[Scotty 1978]

Don’t like it over priced as well

Jaipur came out in 2005.
Was a feature in Ferment magazine about the biggest most important craft beers. Punk and Jaipur were 1 and 2, iirc. Cant remember which order.

Thronvridge were also doing Green Mountain, in a green can, then a little while later brew dog were doing hazy jane which tastes similar also in a green can. Interesting

Had a week in Bakewell in the Peak District last summer. The pubs were generally dull as anything but found a micro pub that always had Thornbridge stuff on draught. It was lovely.

Was one of the few benefits of working in Buxton for a while

Unfiltered and unpasturised makes a whopping difference. Mind, shouldn't this conversation be on the craft beer thread, not the "brewdog are wankers" one?

Same bloke and same recipie, basically.
The Punk that became popular was a very different beer.

Tbh there’s a lot of crossover on both

That MK1 punk you brewed was very nice.

Funny, I look at my life now, and wonder how the actual fuck I ever had 4 spare hours to brew and bottle a batch of beer once a week.

I have to plan when I fit in a shite most of the time nowadays

Hahah. That's what three little terrors do.
