MitchBastard Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 @drewbert I did search high an low for spaten as per @Otto Von Blotto suggestion but couldn’t find it. I saw billboards and signage for it but alas it wasn’t available. Not that I was short of choice but woulda been nice to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit bizarre but I guess there are so many good beers in Bayern and in Muenchen… so you could easily go to quite a few good Wirtschafts and never see Spaten… and then stroll into the next one and that is their main brew... When I was there last I tried to target places that served specific Breweries .e.g Augustiner… Hacker Pschorr or Paulaner… think that probably is what you have to do if you do want to slurp a specific brew...

supernerdy Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 Todays tight arse tasting is mountain goat pale ale!. Its drinkable.. prefer my IPAs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lab Cat Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Fullers 1845 yesterday. What a big beer. Needed a lie down after this one, as I'd had a 740ml of my own stuff beforehand. Cracked one of my Wee Heavy's (a bit early) this evening and stone me if it isn't right in this ball park. The Coopers Scotch recipe ale is an absolute beast of a beer. Too simple to be that good. Best kit beer I've done so far. Edited July 26, 2019 by Lab Rat 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naughty Corner Brewing Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Grabbed a couple of single Pale Ales the other night. One was the Pirate Life Pale Ale which I really enjoyed. I’ve had the Mosaic one in the past but this was just the normal APA. What a great beer! Nice body and a good hoppiness courtesy of the 50IBUs but definitely not overpowering. Great malt character with some good sweetness from the crystal malts balanced the beer really well. I was on a research mission so there will definitely be a small batch all grain APA hitting the craft fermenter soon! Probably throw the recipe up for comment tonight when I get home.

Shamus O'Sean Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Tonight's tasting: Mountain Goat Fancy Pants Amber Ale. Probably should have poured slower. Got a lot of yeast in suspension. Nice beer still. Amber, but not too sweet. Late addition Galaxy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

der kleine Drache Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Lots of luxury beers here! The only store bought for me at the moment is the danish Slots Pilsner. Made with sugar and maize . Got it from my colleague who swears by it as his everyday beer. Very bland to say the least. Not awful though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Tonight's was a beauty. Fully lived up to the description: Hails from the tradition of 18th Century IPAs, which relied on generous hopping to protect exports during arduous journeys. This modern incarnation retains the strength, body and strong hop character which is synonymous with this beer's provenance. A glorious showcase of the distinct, heavily hopped beers for which Shepherd Neame is famed, India Pale Ale delivers potent bitterness, offset with generous amounts of pale ale malt to deliver a balanced, yet uncompromising brew.
