Book Review: The Complete Beer Course

Posted on January 24, 2016 by Marc Henshall

I picked up my copy of Joshua Bernstein’s Complete Beer Course (Boot Camp for Beer Geeks), not as a complete novice, but as a beer geek who enjoys reading about beer from a diverse perspective. The unique approach proclaiming to progress readers from “Novice to Expert In Twelve Tasting Classes” was enough to spark my

Book Review: Mark Dredge The Best Beer in the World

Posted on January 21, 2016 by Marc Henshall

The beer book category is a rather crowded space; be it lists of beers to try before you die, or full reference guides on a number of niche categories, it’s safe to say there’s no shortage of choice for the reader. With competition so fierce, standing out from the crowd by making a point of difference becomes increasingly difficult, but also

Three Barley Wines to Warm up the Festive Session

Posted on December 15, 2015 by Marc Henshall

The festive season is a time for overindulgence – a time to gather with family and friends for the enjoyment of great food and drink. Barley Wine, in particular, offers much comfort during the winter months as a fireside companion, with its elevated ABV, and rich, warming flavors. Below, we have selected some of our

To Øl: Reparationsbajer Review

Posted on October 9, 2015 by Marc Henshall

Happy Friday. Are you ready for another beer? I know I am. This week’s beer is a fascinating Pale from my recent Beer52 order – fascinating for a couple of reasons: 1) They don’t own their own brewery; instead opting to brew beer at other brewers locations and referring to themselves as a “gypsy brewery”.

Samuel Smith’s Organic Chocolate Stout Review

Posted on October 2, 2015 by Ponto

The last time we reviewed a Samuel Smith’s beer, also a stout funny enough, we had found some evidence that pointed out rather dodgy business and ethical practices the brewery engaged in from many years before. After searching further, a website called “Sam Smith’s Forum” (http://samsmiths.info/) popped up and it had an incredible number of incidents

Spiegelau IPA glass vs regular pint glass

Posted on September 29, 2015 by Marc Henshall

As the popularity of hugely hoppy beers continues to grow on both sides of the Atlantic, it seems only natural that we should pay a little more attention to the glassware that houses them. After all, many great beer styles from Europe have their own glassware, why not the IPA? Fortunately for us hop-heads, this

Innis and Gunn – White Oak Wheat Beer review

Posted on September 25, 2015 by Marc Henshall

This week’s beer comes from a well known and much-adored brewer we’ve covered before, Innis and Gunn. Readers on both sides of the pond will need little or no introduction to their classic original oak aged beer, which began life as the waste product of whiskey barrel enhancement that just so happened to taste sensational.

Beer mail from Beer52.com

Posted on September 20, 2015 by Marc Henshall

Could there be anything better than beer arriving in the mail? Sure beats boring bills, doesn’t it? While drinking to forget your bill paying responsibilities should never be advocated – surely a few frothy beverages delivered direct to your door can only aid in easing the monotony of your typical morning post? Worked for me anyway, as
