Dell_Zincht posted:Omg so loving good, on my third: Apparently they had the pricing hosed when it was released. At quid a can for a DIPA the supermarket were definitely losing money. Still absurd value! I took delivery from a local pub just now, thats shifting two hundred cases a week at the moment! Can't go wrong with a 700 year old German brewer as beers go either.

Dell_Zincht posted:The best thing about it is it's so fruity and smooth you can barely taste the alcohol. It's dangerously drinkable. Deya, Cloudwater, Verdant are probably the top hazy boys. The standard in general has gone really high the last few years here though.

As hop forward lagers go, Lost and Groundeds Keller Pils is pretty great. Any of the other UK people tried Donzoko stuff?Intruiged by a craft brewery that focuses on lager.

Local brewery has put out the perfect antidote to oversweet bad milkshake IPAs Conch - ESB 6.5% A modern extra special bitter,all burnt sugar and orange peel without being thick or cloyingly sweet. I want to live inside a dimple pot of this beer and drown happy.

Dell_Zincht posted:On my third can of BrewDog O-G Hazy NEIPA, this stuff is dangerously smooth for a 7.2! When it's good, it's good. The probalem is absolutely no supermarkets seem to keep them in the fridge, so the odds of getting a stale one are high. Fore whatever reason my local Tesco gets days old Vocation Life and Death, still my choice of supermarket IPA

Dell_Zincht posted:Drinking this, it's a great milk stout. The ring pull is cool as well! Can't help but feel this would be even better if it was nitro'd as it's really smooth as it is. Just had one of these last night on your recommend, its good! Though my king of supermarket stouts is still the Evil Twin Brewdog 'Roaster Coaster'

Josh Wow posted:I know a guy who is very into cask beer and complains about most beer being overcarbonated, so he will often get an extra glass and pour his beer between the two glasses a few times to knock out some of the carbonation. Also if you let a beer just sit around opened it will lose some carbonation, so just always have an opened beer in the fridge. Cask ale and stouts, my guy.

thotsky posted:The article seemed to imply them as a possible buyer of Shelton Bros assets. If they're also able to pick up their contracts on importing European lambics (Cantillon, 3 Fonteinen) and various other funky beers that would make for an interesting pairing with their current handling of the export of Side Project, Hill Farmstead, Tired hands etc. Thats a very long way from a monopoly, especially for us outside the US

Scrotum Modem posted:according to beeradvocate ratings, it's the 6th best beer in the world. I dunno, IPAs not my thing. #2 is a Marshmallow Handjob - as an imperial stout fan/addict I need to try that some time BA ratings are now and always more based on rarity than quality

Bags Fly at Noon posted:Yeah. 13% percent stouts don’t belong in 16oz cans. posting a very late reply because the UK is completely insane and you can now regularly get pastry stout 12% 440ml cans in supermarkets from good breweries. As a culture we are not equipped for this given the attitude to drinking here is a bit all gas no brakes.

fuckpot posted:I'm heading to Germany and Prague this October for what is essentially a food and beer drinking tour. I'm heading after Ocktoberfest as I'm not a big fan of the hustle and bustle and just want to stroll around at my own pace. Excitement about the trip has overcome me like I'm a little kid so I'm youtubing and googling like crazy. I'm pretty sure I'll have all the obvious beers and locations covered. Just wondering if there's any less obvious places or beers it'd be a travesty to miss out on that may not come up in my searches. I've got three nights in Munich and Prague and am also visiting Frankfurt, Nuremberg, Berlin and Hamburg. Krusovice might be my favourite non-craft lager in the world, the pils and the dark both.

RocketMermaid posted:I've seen fresh hop/wet hop beers from places like Three Floyds as far back as the early 2000s, but it is definitely primarily a PNW phenomenon. Places like Yakima Chief are coming up with more and more interesting ways to preserve and ship them these days, though. Hell, I was working at Lagunitas back in 2015 when they were developing the process for Contents Under Fresher, where they could basically pulp fresh hops with deaerated water and store them in near-freezing temperatures for several months. It wasn't quite as potent as using them fresh off the bine, but it was definitely a nice bit of fresh hop character you could get almost any time of year. Reaching back a bit but fresh/green hopped have existed in the UK for like a hundred plus years, but rarely seen outside of Kent
