Dairylea Wonderloaf Beer
Date: Thu, Apr 25, 2013
Ron Pattinson’s enjoyably snarky post about keg bitter and craft beer used an interesting turn of phrase: ‘Over-priced, trendy, processed beer’. Arguably, all beer is processed, unless you are drinking the spontaneously fermented liquid which gathers at the bottom of your grain bucket after heavy rain. But people use the phrase ‘processed food’ to mean [...]
The Pain of the Home Brewer
Date: Wed, Apr 24, 2013
You spend the entirety of a precious day off home brewing. Everything goes wrong that possibly can but eventually, several hours later than planned, you plonk the fermentor in a dark corner, wipe up the last spills, and go to the pub for a well-earned pint. Several weeks or even months later, you open the [...]
The Original Irish Theme Pubs?
Date: Tue, Apr 23, 2013
For now, the only biographical information we have about Patrick Fitzpatrick, founder of Godson’s, London, c.1977, is in some old cuttings Ian Mackey kindly shared. One article, from 1978, says that Fitzpatrick, at 23, was ‘one of the third generation of the Murphy family who have run a string of pubs in East London for [...]
The Stale Language of Beer
Date: Mon, Apr 22, 2013
This guest post on Sophie Atherton’s blog is interesting for several reasons. First, because Ms. Woolgar, not being a fully-fledged beer geek, seems to have been able to react honestly to the beers she tasted without the fog of hype clouding her vision. Secondly, because of some of the language she uses to describe flavour [...]
Dregs from the Drip Tray
Date: Fri, Apr 19, 2013
Here are a few odds and ends which didn’t warrant a post of their own. We’ve updated this post on the Pub Users’ Protection Society with new (old) information from a 1979 edition of CAMRA’s What’s Brewing, including a picture of their famous ‘beerometer’. On a similar note, we’ve stumbled across information on a couple [...]
The Challenge of Objectivity
Date: Thu, Apr 18, 2013
As we start lining up interviews with the current generation of British brewers, rather than those in retirement, we find ourselves reflecting on what we can do to make sure our book remains objective. We’re interested in them because they’re part of a bigger story, not because we think they’re awesome. What we don’t want [...]
Hopostrophes
Date: Wed, Apr 17, 2013
By Bailey I once wrote the language style guide for a large organisation but I didn’t get chance to come up with advice on writing about hops. Now seems like a good time to put that right. As usual with questions of style (grammar’s wishy-washy, let-it-all-hang-out cousin) this is slightly more complicated than it ought to [...]
Give Your Pub a Makeover
Date: Tue, Apr 16, 2013
When we’re sitting in a pub, we spend quite a lot of time talking about what what works, and what could be improved. We know, however, that many publicans have little cash at hand and that their options are often limited by the terms of their lease. Nonetheless, we think there a few things that [...]
The Pub as Quasi-Happy Eater
Date: Sun, Apr 14, 2013
Our local Wetherspoon’s isn’t a very good one. It rarely has anything other than Doom Bar, Ruddles or Greene King IPA on offer, usually a degree or two too warm, served in an ambience that brings to mind a faux-pub on a cross channel ferry. We pop in from time to time, though, just in [...]
How to Snare a Beer Geek
Date: Sat, Apr 13, 2013
Fact: a geek will try to collect every item on any list he or she is given, and absolutely will not stop, ever, until it is ticked. Since we spoke to CAMRA-founder Michael Hardman last year, we’ve been keen to get our hands on a copy of an influential publication he told us about — [...]
What’s Up With Zero Degrees?
Date: Fri, Apr 12, 2013
Zero Degrees is still, as far as we know, the only chain of brewpubs in the UK. They make beer which is usually decent and often excellent, on shiny kit, in nice-looking, spacious bars. But, for some reason, they’re just not cool. In the last six months or so, we’ve been to both the Bristol [...]
Best Cornish Pubs 2013
Date: Thu, Apr 11, 2013
Last year, we came up with a list of our favourite Cornish pubs, all of which remain worth a visit, but there has been a lot going on in the last year, and we’ve explored more, too, so it’s time for an update. This list is personal and prejudiced — we do not have a [...]
The Decent Pint
Date: Wed, Apr 10, 2013
These days, it seems, every wedding has to be a fairy tale; every book a best-selling tour de force; and every glass of beer a ten-out-often life-changing experience. This is another example of the inflation of expectation that has taken place in the last fifty years: what early beer consumer campaigners wanted was a ‘decent [...]
Cheating by Making Tasty Beer
Date: Tue, Apr 9, 2013
Last week, everyone got in a proper tizz over an eccentric rant about ‘craft keg’ in the programme for a local beer festival. We thought it an interesting statement of a particular (extreme) point of view, and were especially fascinated by this line: The only thing that has changed 1974 to 2013 is that cynical [...]
