Craft Beer

Before the match was lucky to try the new birthday beer that Vaux are releasing shortly. :eek:

All I can say, is I hope it sticks around after the birthday celebrations. It is *right* up there with some of the craft heavyweights.

They should rightly be proud of it. Superb.
 

Checked out a new taproom near me yesterday. Some good beer choices but only serving thirds, halves and two-thirds. No pints at all.
 
Don't think I had the former, but agree, really enjoyed the 99.

Been mapping out a route for a solo wander next Friday for a few craft type slurps. Torque, Blacks Corner, The Stables, Blues and Fausto (hammer a pizza to finish off). Couple of beers in each and a canny leg stretch :cool:

Ate in black corners Friday night, we all agreed one of the best small plates food we'd ever had. With side of flatbread that was absolutely tremendous. Lovely quirky little venue aswell. Good vibe. Just had wine though, no beer on this occasion.
 
More bad news ahead for the craft beer scene.

It amazes me that production volume has increased by more than 10%, I know loads of breweries who’ve slowed down production and loads closed last year so god knows what’s driving that level of increase.
 
Whoa. Seen the latest post by the club? Omg omg

I’m getting into them more to be honest. I still don’t think my pallet can appreciate them & differentiate in the same way I can with stouts. But I am learning to enjoy them. The majority of the ones I get are from the Vaux sub box.

Plan is to do 7/8 halves in the Isis. Cask stouts & brown ales & keg IPAs & Pales. Cask IPAs are too flat for me.
