Beer?

[deptfordmarmoset]

If Fisher-Price designed beer pumps, they'd look rather like Partizan's.

I grabbed an Amarillo and Mosaic IPA and a Lemon Jam, which as you can see was eminently palletable...

A top beer, by the way. A Belgian-style number with lots of lemon zest that they've had maturing for a good year.

Still as good as ever.

In 57 Thomas Street and looking for precisely that but they have none and the keg selection is uninspiring but a chap, another customer, recommended this "but it's very sour!"

I don't think he's had much sour beer. It's Witbier with a hint of a whiff of hibiscus.

The can also warned me that the beer inside was can conditioned and to pour it carefully or the sky would fall in or something so I poured four fifths, swirled and gooied it in. Nothing bad happened.

Nice enough but dear.

That reminds me that the BBNo tasting rooms are only a couple of miles away from here. And they're open on Sunday afternoons! The sour quince saison (18|11) looks intriguing.

BBNo - their latest DDH. Not as big sweat onion bomb as the last one. A bit more fresh fruitiness. Lovely stuff

Beetroot sadly goes into the bin of stuff wot shouldn’t be in beer. Strong vegetable aroma which I don’t really dig

Beer at the summer fete or football...?

There is only one winner...

Just had a few at the werrington beer festival..not a tin in sight.
What is it with tinnies? I hate tinned beer

I tend to avoid cans but I'm changing my opinion a little. I'm getting closer to poor beers taste even poorer from a can, good beers aren't bothered.

Upham brewery's Punter best bitter. A brewery I 'd never heard of but have tried it a few times now I'm working away in Hampshire, and it's a fine pint.

Made it to BBNo (Beer by Bicycle? No!) this afternoon.

Right, their sour quince saison had sold out in keg. They had bottles, but I had no panniers. Another time....

This is a DIPA subtitled Coffee (55|08). Very subtle hints of coffee but a lovely high-octane beer (8.2%).

Then I had a Nebuleuse. A double dry hopped kettle-soured New England Pale Ale (42|1020). Only lightly sour but refreshing.

There's something rather patrician about these under the arches breweries. They don't sell pints, 2/3rds is the biggest you can get. I get to feel that they're rationing it. On the other hand, after popping outside for a fag and being hit by a wave of heat, I asked for some water, mindful of the effect of beer and biking in hot sunshine. Voilà, a pint of water!

My liver comes with fava beans and a nice bottle of something...

Another day of art and fine ales in Embra!Oh and I think there was a little football game on as well...I just happened to catch the last 10 in minutes in 6 Degrees North in Howe Street, where I had North & Verdant Triple Fruited Gose (salty and fruity) and Weird Beard Saison 14 ( probably my favourite beer style atm, not as farmyard funky as some, just a little bit soulful) before catching the 29 bus back into toon for another visit to Salt Horse and a good browse in the bottle shop, including Wild Beer Tom Yum and Smoking Barrels. Wild Beer or Buxton definitely top my list of favourite breweries at the moment! I went for an unfined IPA from Pilot (nicely hoppy and fruity, reminded me how much I still enjoy this style of beer) and a fruity sour from Stillwater & Amundsen ( deep red and as drinkable as it was colourful, though sour beers aren't for everyone).
Nice sunny evening, even managed to fit in a couple more at Fell Penrith, as I hadn't been in there for just over a week, due to something called WORK. Burning Sky Plateau Session Pale (can't go wrong with these guys, hoppy and full of flavour for its 3.5%), Fell Dark Mild (let's go mild! mellow, malty, very sessionable) and Wild Beer Millionaire (salty and sweet, pretty rich stuff so a half was about right).There were a few England fans out on the toon who were getting a bit carried away...one had decided to use a traffic cone as a megaphone (nur nur nur, nur nur nur, nur nur nur nur nur nur ...and repeat). Bork bork, as they say in Sweden.
