The Bottled Beer Year: Day 154, Beer 154 - Williams Brothers "Joker IPA"
http://thebottledbeeryear.blogspot.com/2012/12/day-154-beer-154-williams-brothers.html
The Bottled Beer Year. Where Mark Dexter wanders around like he owns the place. Bottled Beer - High Score Chart. Sunday, 2 December 2012. Day 154, Beer 154 - Williams Brothers "Joker IPA". Name – Joker IPA. Brewer – Williams Brothers. Classification – 'Contemporary' India Pale Ale. (It's about time we all started officially separating the classic style IPA's from these ultra-modern versions, don't ya think? What with them being about as similar to each other as Laurel and Hardy.). Verdict - At A Glance.

The Bottled Beer Year: Let Google Do The School Run.

The Bottled Beer Year. Where Mark Dexter wanders around like he owns the place. Bottled Beer - High Score Chart. Wednesday, 28 May 2014. Let Google Do The School Run. The folks at Google get a lot of things right. For a start, they don't work for Facebook – which is possibly the single best idea any technically-minded humanoid could ever have. Other good things they've done include the inexplicably legal snooping tool 'Google Earth. Which, thanks to its 'Incognito'. Now, safety is obviously paramount in ...

Tandleman's Beer Blog: Do We Like That One?
http://tandlemanbeerblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/do-we-like-that-one.html
Tandleman's Random and Particular Thoughts on Beer. Monday, 27 July 2015. Do We Like That One? I'm not a drinker of own brand beers really. I kind of think they are likely to be not very good with one or two exceptions. These exceptions are usually where a very good brewery has been commissioned to produce a particular kind of beer as part of a range. But what about those low end "cooking lagers" which aren't brands, but are set up to compete with "brands"? First up was Galahad Lager. Gives every impress...

Tandleman's Beer Blog: Bass in the Sun
http://tandlemanbeerblog.blogspot.com/2015/06/bass-in-sun.html
Tandleman's Random and Particular Thoughts on Beer. Monday, 15 June 2015. Bass in the Sun. You don't encounter Draught Bass that often these days in my experience. I know of a couple of places where it is sold, but I wouldn't go there just to seek the beer out as such. It wasn't always so. I used to make many a pilgrimage to the White Star. On a gorgeous summer's day last week, I was meeting a friend in Helensburgh, a town I know well from my youth in the West of Scotland. The Commodore Hotel. Draught Ba...

Tandleman's Beer Blog: Fight
http://tandlemanbeerblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/fight.html
Tandleman's Random and Particular Thoughts on Beer. Tuesday, 19 May 2015. We are always being told by the anti drink lobby of "alcohol fuelled violence", but I have remarked here and in comments hither and thither that I can't remember the last time I saw a fight in a pub. Well I can now. Sort of. On my usual Wednesday out at the Regal Moon. An unusual incident I think you'll agree. I'm still guessing though that it will be a long time before I "see" a fight in a pub again. 19 May 2015 at 10:44. This blo...

Tandleman's Beer Blog: Another Thing the Pub is Best For
http://tandlemanbeerblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/another-thing-pub-is-best-for.html
Tandleman's Random and Particular Thoughts on Beer. Wednesday, 29 July 2015. Another Thing the Pub is Best For. One of our Sunday table from the Tandle Hill Tavern has died. We knew it was coming and so did he. Yesterday after his funeral we met, not at the Tavern, but at the nearby Ship, thus allowing the landlord of the THT to join us to see the lad off in a style he'd have liked. We had a piss up. Sounds like the perfect send off for a pub man. 29 July 2015 at 22:46. 30 July 2015 at 08:57. Nautical vi...

#273: Browns, George Street, Edinburgh | Edinburgh Pubs
https://brewmook.wordpress.com/2014/08/26/273-browns-george-street-edinburgh
A catalogue of pubs in central Edinburgh. 273: Browns, George Street, Edinburgh. August 26, 2014. In Edinburgh Castle Tour. We nearly talked ourselves out of Browns because it’s more of a restaurant, but there is a bar and some tables that don’t seem that amenable to dining. It’s quite a pleasant, spacious interior with a classy appearance, some big plants, a brass-topped bar, dark wood and some old features like original cornices. Browns is a nationwide chain, owned by Mitchells and Butlers. Fill in you...

Sober October | Edinburgh Pubs
https://brewmook.wordpress.com/2014/10/11/sober-october
A catalogue of pubs in central Edinburgh. October 11, 2014. You’ve probably heard of Sober October. By now, a charity fundraising drive by Macmillan cancer support. Encouraging people to lay off the bevvy for a whole month. With this and “Dryuary” in January (such a bad brand name), I’ve noticed plenty of complaints from pubs, offies and breweries about these occasional alcohol-free drives which put a small dent in their bottom line. To them I say this: quit moaning and embrace it! In Germany, drivers an...
