Voll Blau 9,380 Posted 6 November 2020 Report Share Posted 6 November 2020 (edited) First new beer of the weekend is Orkney Gold. Scots know their ale alright, though this would be better on a summer's day. Would've got some Yank beers this week if I'd known there was likely to be some news worthy of getting the tins in for tonight. Can't beat having a few scoops while major world events unfold on the box. Edited 6 November 2020 by Voll Blau Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Blur 607 Posted 7 November 2020 Report Share Posted 7 November 2020 Do you guys keep your ales in fridge or at room temperature? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I only refrigerate unpasteurized draft beer (or stuff I want to drink within the next few days). Whatever else I've got goes into the cellar, which is cool. I've opened some imperial stouts and barleywines after a few years there and they seem to keep pretty well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Voll Blau 9,380 Posted 7 November 2020 Report Share Posted 7 November 2020 Can't remember who recommended Stewart's brewery on here but their Edinburgh Gold and Lager went down a treat last night. Having a bit of a late Oktoberfest this evening with Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr Festbiers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Soup 1,411 Posted 7 November 2020 Report Share Posted 7 November 2020 Raided the offie on the way home from work today. Grabbed a load of different Belgian bottles. Belgenius Double IPA is the first to be cracked. Very nice indeed 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Costock_Fox 11,854 Posted 7 November 2020 Report Share Posted 7 November 2020 Polished off all of the Vault City stuff on my holiday, enjoyed them but they get a bit much after a while. Really can’t remember too much of our match on Thursday. Got my dad a load of Verdant stuff for his birthday, rude not to get some Pistachio DIAC’s on the same order.

Definitely not one to sesh on but lovely after a hard day at work I strongly recommend the Leffe Winter, although it's more like the Bruin one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a keg of this for the perfect draft, will prob have it leading up to Christmas. I’ve been drinking mainly U.K. beers recently but love the Belgian style beers. 38 minutes ago, Soup said: Talking af Belgian beers M&S sell St Feuillien at £2.50 a bottle.

Tesco sell delirium for £2.5 which is great value, they also have big bottles of tripel karmeliet for £5. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One or two in a session. Which was your favourite? Mine has to be the pear and vanilla which is odd as I’m not a massive fan of pear. Also where did you order from for the Verdant/DIAC?

I recon the Raspberry session one or Cherry were my favourites. I got the other stuff from Leftfield Beer which always has a pretty good selection of you have never used them.

I’ve used loads because I tend to try to hunt down specific beers. The DIAC ones were about £2 cheaper there than most other places. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I usually put them in the fridge for about half an hour before serving. I don't want to sound too much like a total CAMRA willy puller but I think as the ale warms up the flavour gets better. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Miquel The Work Geordie 12,104 Posted 21 November 2020 Report Share Posted 21 November 2020 (edited) Gonna get the four Carribbean Chocolate Cakes from Siren, managed a few last year and they were Susan. Need to whack a few big Christmas orders in for a truly joyeux noel - will visit the Offie pre-crimbo, get a few from the Wagon and a few exotic ones online baby! Debated buying 24 assorted for advent but I wouldn't have the willpower to do just the one a day. Edited 21 November 2020 by Miquel The Work Geordie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
