pintsizedticker: Norfolk Spoils

http://pintsizedticker.blogspot.com/2013/02/norfolk-spoils.html

Friday, 1 February 2013. We managed to steal a 4 day trip to Norfolk and Cambridge with some very good friends. Not wanting the trip to be all consumed with beer notes and chasing round the county trying to find local beers we hadn't planned on blogging. But, when we passed a sign for a shop that our guests knew proclaiming 60 different Norfolk beers we could not pass the opportunity, and our hosts were keen to join in. 177: Citraville, Old Slewfoot, 3.9%. 178: Honey Ale, Norfolk, 5%. Boak and Bailey's B...

Musings of an elusive beer geek: April 2015

http://www.graphedbeer.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Musings of an elusive beer geek. About Me and Awards. Sunday, 19 April 2015. Cherry Cola Imperial Milk Stout. An opportunity to brew the former arose when friend, fellow home brewer and jolly nice chap Andrew Hobbs. Came to stay over on the weekend of the Siren Maiden launch party. We'd decided on brewing something together on the Sunday morning and having put this idea to Andrew in advance, we exchanged a few thoughts on it and settled on a recipe. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Musings of an elusive beer geek: Rule Britannia

http://www.graphedbeer.com/2014/04/rule-britannia.html

Musings of an elusive beer geek. About Me and Awards. Sunday, 20 April 2014. Do malts travel better than hops perhaps, meaning that they've as much chance of getting the best out of them that we in Europe do? Maybe we've wasted so much energy trying to perfect a style already perfected on the west coast that we've taken our eye off the good old imperial stout? 20 April 2014 at 18:27. 20 April 2014 at 19:29. 20 April 2014 at 20:50. 20 April 2014 at 21:11. Cheers Mike. Well, I suppose that being the ca...

Musings of an elusive beer geek: October 2014

http://www.graphedbeer.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

Musings of an elusive beer geek. About Me and Awards. Sunday, 5 October 2014. Wet Hopped Pale Ale. Cascade ready to harvest. Had I known that I'd have access to so many lovely hops, I would've lined a brew up that very evening. I did contemplate heading back over to see if any had grown outside of the church's boundary but as it turns out, a chance to brew with wet hops would present itself on twitter. Beer rater extraordinaire over on his blog. The Baron looking very happy with his bumper crop. I first ...

Musings of an elusive beer geek: Magic Rock - tapping into the future

http://www.graphedbeer.com/2015/07/magic-rock-tapping-into-future.html

Musings of an elusive beer geek. About Me and Awards. Sunday, 5 July 2015. Magic Rock - tapping into the future. On 1st July 2015, a couple of weeks after the doors were opened, Magic Rock Brewery held the official launch party for their new tap room. The tap however is already in full swing and provides a literal window into what will mark a huge step up in capacity once fully operational. And make my way inside to the bar.

pintsizedticker: Golden Pint 2012

http://pintsizedticker.blogspot.com/2012/12/golden-pint-2012.html

Thursday, 27 December 2012. And beer reviews Andy. Are again organising the golden pint awards. I am new to the whole beer thing. So this is going to be spectacularly hard because most of the beers I have drunk and the experiences I have had have been new and exciting, and picking the best is going to be hard. Next year.that'll be easy I'll be a hardened drinker cynical of my likes and dislikes. Right? Mr Ticker will also be giving his opinions. Best UK draught beer. Best UK bottled or canned beer. Our I...

pintsizedticker: Street food + beer=happiness

http://pintsizedticker.blogspot.com/2012/12/street-food-beerhappiness.html

Friday, 14 December 2012. December 14th, a rare night off for both of us, at a time where everything seems very busy and cram packed with Christmas plans. We don't often get out on an evening, preferring a few beers in the afternoon, or evening beer drinking at home instead. Old fogies in our late twenties, doesn't bode well for twenty years time! We visited the Sparrow, I've blogged before how much I like it there. 169: Earl Grey IPA, Marble Brewery, 6%. 170: Winter Ale, De Koninck, 6.5%. Sorry for the ...
