Black Market Brewing Co. Rye IPA Review

Posted on September 18, 2015 by Ponto

Black Market Brewing, as it sounds, is a brewery trying to relight that excitement and mystery around bootlegging during prohibition, at least as their marketing goes.  They started with a small garage sized warehouse and began with whatever ingredients they could afford to make beer with and created their first beer, Hefeweizen. Today, it seems they have

Posted on September 16, 2015 by Marc Henshall

Enough is enough. The snobbery around beer has to stop! Having witnessed a number of questionable snooty comments and articles – predominately across social media – I decided the time was right to get the topic of my chest and clarify the TA Brews position while I’m at it. (I promise not to get on my soap

Hook Norton Double Stout Review

Posted on September 11, 2015 by Marc Henshall

This week, I’m delving a little deeper into a beer I’ve briefly covered before – Hook Norton’s Double Stout, which also happens to be a personal favorite of mine. For a while, it was actually my favorite beer and a solid staple in my household throughout the winter months. To be honest though, I’ve somewhat

About Brewdog Brewdog is Scottish brewery created by James Watt, Martin Dickie, and their dog, Simcoe, 2 guys and 1 dog bored of the mass produced swill that dominated most of the market.  Since their only option was to make their own, they imbued it with their personality and disregard for what those stuffy old beer

Tesco Finest Double American IPA by Brew Dog review

Posted on August 28, 2015 by Marc Henshall

O.K – so I went there again; I purchased another beer brewed in partnership with Tesco. (A major UK Supermarket for the benefit of our American and Canadian friends). Risky business? maybe – and after my last experience with the so-called “Metropolitan Brewing Company” you’d be forgiven for thinking I’d lost my marbles. Fortunately, though,

Unibroue La Fin du Monde Review

Posted on August 21, 2015 by Ponto

On a technical view, La Fin du Monde (literally translated into “The End of the World”) was created using an intrepid European strain of yeast and styled after the Belgian triple, with its complexities in aroma and flavor.

Sharp’s Atlantic Pale Ale Review

Posted on August 14, 2015 by Marc Henshall

Sharp’s Brewery have seen huge growth and success in the UK over recent years. The brand is so successful in fact that back in 2012 national giants Molson Coors began to take notice and inevitably put forward a bid to buy them out. Alas, the brewery is no longer independent, and despite initial intentions to

Beer goes better with Cheese than Wine does.

Posted on August 11, 2015 by Marc Henshall

The idea that wine should take center stage as the natural partner to food is one of those preconceived notions that really winds me up. It never ceases to amaze me how celebrity chefs and restaurants can go on preaching about high-quality cuisine – opening up venues, paying close attention to their wine list, and then serving

Spiegelau Beer Glass Tasting Kit Review

Posted on August 10, 2015 by Marc Henshall

It is our belief that lovingly crafted, great tasting beer deserves to be treated with respect; simply cracking open a bottle or can and throwing it down your neck just doesn’t cut it! You need to get that beer into a glass, and preferably – the right glass. The importance of glassware I can’t underestimate
