Beer

Tonight's BeerBods offering is the Black IPA from St Peters Brewery - https://beerbods.co.uk/this-weeks-beer/st-peters-brewery-black-ipa/

Used to really like St Peters stuff when I was drinking more traditional beers. Not had anything from them in ages though, so looking forward to this. Loving Black IPAs at the moment, but I'd be amazed if this has the massive American hop profile I associate with the style. I'm guessing it'll be more in the Purity - Saddle Black and Sadlers - Peaky Blinders mold.

Always wary of a brewery that actually uses the word "Craft" or "Crafted" on the label, but I guess this is to separate it from their core range.

Might follow this up with a Beavertown - Bloody Notorious which is burning a hole on my beer shelf...

I had a bottle of that a short while ago. Nice, but it would knock an elephant off its feet...

Advent sorted.

I want to do one of these myself this year as a present . Wondered if you could buy the blank case from anywhere and fill it myself?

Ales by Mail do one for £60 with a random selection of craft ales including Premium stuff. £2.30 a bottle on average.

This will be my Christmas dinner beer - http://www.beergonzo.co.uk/buy/beer/mikkeller-nelson-sauvin-dry-hopped-ba-chardonnay-p2102

A Mikkeller Belgian sour beer, made with Nelson Savin hops, fermented with champagne yeast, then aged in Chardonnay barrels with brettanomyces wild yeast and then dry hopped with more Nelson Savin.

Sounds fucking incredible.

That sounds rank!!!

Nu-uh. Nelson Sauvin hops are amazing. They'll be so good in a champagne sour beer. I just know it!

Indeed. New Zealand hops are awesome. Their (NZ) ales have been dreadful.

It'd be a good idea. The 24 beers of advent. Maybe one to leave closer to the time to keep Langers happy.

Very cool idea. Give us a price range and the name of whichever site/list from the bottle shop you're buying from I'd be glad to recommend a bottle.

 

[leedswolf]

Langers can recommend #24.

 

[Boozad]

Great idea that.

Still haven't decided on my Christmas dinner beer yet.

Ha - ace idea. Don't mind me being scrooge - go for it.

Keep your eye on Cloudwater. They are barrel aging loads at the moment. A white wine aged saison would be very tempting.

Wiper and True releasing a negroni inspired DIPA collaboration with Brewdog this weekend. Oh my.

But will we all have to buy the recommended beers? I have never heard of most of them that Machin and Boozad mention...!!
