  • BeerCast #62 – Hardknott Showcase

    BeerCast #62 – Hardknott Showcase. Cumbria’s Hardknott Brewery are the latest to feature in a BeerCast Showcase – during a recent trip to London we found four of their beers at Borough Market’s UtoBeer.

    1. Hardknott Dark Energy (4.9%)

    2. Hardknott Infra Red (6.5%)
    3. Hardknott Queboid (8.0%)

  • BeerCast #61 – Beer of Yesteryear

    BeerCast #61 – Beer of Yesteryear. As modern brewers seek to experiment, historic styles of ale are definitely making a comeback. Inspired by an article in the Guardian newspaper written by blogger Mark Dredge, today we sample four archaic old-fashioned ales. Moving from Elizabethan times to ancient Turkey (Bill&Ted style), we also make a stop in Celtic Britain, and pay a visit to the Vikings. Stepping into the time-travelling phone box are Richard, Shovels, and BeerCast debutant Blair. Think of a number dude!

    1. Daleside Morocco Ale (5.5%)

    2. Dogfish Head Midas Touch (9.0%)
    3. Heather Ales Alba (7.5%)
    4. Thornbridge Bracia (10.0%)

  • BeerCast #60 – Purity Showcase

    BeerCast #60 – Purity Showcase. The award-winning Purity Brewing Company from Warwickshire sent us some review samples for a podcast – so we turn the airwaves over to another Brewery Showcase. As they make only three beers (which is fairly unusual for a modern producer these days), we throw in a bonus fourth beer from London’s Kernel Brewery – their monumental Imperial Stout. On the panel today – Richard, Grooben and Shovels. Big thanks to Kirsten at Purity for sending the review samples through!

    1. Purity Pure Gold (4.3%)

    2. Purity Mad Goose (4.2%)
    3. Purity Pure UBU (4.5%)
    4. Kernel Imperial Stout (12.5%)

  • BeerCast #59 – IPA is Dead

    BeerCast #59 – IPA is Dead. Last month Fraserburgh's BrewDog released a series of four India Pale Ales to showcase the wonderful versatility of hops. Our panel sample each of the 7.5% beers - the only difference between them being the variety of hop used - and discuss whether is really means the end for IPA, or just another beginning. To test things a bit further, we throw in another singe hop IPA for good measure - well, why not? On the panel today - Richard, Shovels, Grooben and Stu. Stand by for big scores, big discussions, and the best way of cleaning a lion’s cage…

    1. BrewDog IPA is Dead Bramling X (7.5%)

    2. BrewDog IPA is Dead Nelson Sauvin (7.5%)
    3. BrewDog IPA is Dead Sorachi Ace (7.5%)
