Welcome back lovers of great beer. Vienna Lager is one of my favourite lagers and one often overlooked by UK brewers, so I was pleased to see this one on the Wilde Child website. It’s their first attempt at brewing one so it certainly promises to be interesting. They’ve drawn inspiration from the world ofContinue reading “Wilde Child Brewing – The Magic Flute Vienna Lager (4.8% ABV) #ViennaLager”

Roosters Brewing Co – Beyond The Peel Satsuma Pale Ale (3.8% ABV) #PaleAle
Hello there fellow beer lovers. The Hoptimists do love a bad pun and to be fair to Roosters this beer does manage to go beyond the peel. Fruit peel is frequently added to brews, but this goes a bit further by adding satsuma purée. The first surprise was the colour which is very pale, whenContinue reading “Roosters Brewing Co – Beyond The Peel Satsuma Pale Ale (3.8% ABV) #PaleAle”
St Austell – Korev (4.8% ABV)
Hello Beer lovers, and welcome back to another review here at TEH. I’m pretty certain that anyone reading this review will be familiar with the famous Cornish brewery St Austell, and many of us will have no doubt sampled their most famous brews, Proper Job & Tribute. Well, in this review I will be lookingContinue reading “St Austell – Korev (4.8% ABV)”
Roosters Brewing Co x Birrifico Italiano – The Italian Job Lemongrass & Black Pepper Pale Ale (4.7% ABV) #PaleAle
Welcome back beer lovers. Today we have a review with a continental flavour, a collaboration between Yorkshire and Italy and a reference to a much loved movie of the 1960s. The original Italian Job is a great movie, but how will this collaboration beer fare? Would Mr. Bridger approve? Would Charlie Coker think it greatContinue reading “Roosters Brewing Co x Birrifico Italiano – The Italian Job Lemongrass & Black Pepper Pale Ale (4.7% ABV) #PaleAle”
Vanvåg Beer – Mörker Schwarzbier (4.4% ABV) #Schwarzbier
Welcome back beer lovers. Today a Scandinavian beer born in the Stockholm creative district of Södermalm. It is produced by a self-confessed ‘artisan’ brewer that likes to re-invent and re-purpose traditional beers both old and new. This one is a Schwarzbier, a traditional German black lager and a style almost as old as brewing itself.Continue reading “Vanvåg Beer – Mörker Schwarzbier (4.4% ABV) #Schwarzbier”
Jolly Sailor Brewery – Dark Ruby Mild (3.6% ABV)
This blog has run mild features in the past but has at times struggled to find enough examples to sample. Here is one brewed almost on our doorstep, well in Selby midway between Hull and Leeds, so it would be rude not to try this one. Mild may be an unpopular drink but one IContinue reading “Jolly Sailor Brewery – Dark Ruby Mild (3.6% ABV)”
Roosters Brewing Co – Blame it on the Tetons Mountain IPA (6.3% ABV) #MountainIPA
Hello fellow beer lovers. Mountain IPA, what is one of those you might ask. Judging by the can this IPA expression lies somewhere between the East Coast and West Coast American style IPAs, hence the ‘Mountain‘. The Tetons, well that is a mountain range in Wyoming. Who said drinking beer wasn’t educational. It’s certainly wellContinue reading “Roosters Brewing Co – Blame it on the Tetons Mountain IPA (6.3% ABV) #MountainIPA”
Himlenbryg – Baltic Porter (6.0% ABV) #BalticPorter
A beer style we don’t see too often, this one is produced specially for Beer52. Originating from Sweden, it is fair to say that it has the geographic pedigree if nothing else, but I have high hopes for it. Baltic porters should be cold-lagered, cool-fermented and brewed with lager yeast, this means it should beContinue reading “Himlenbryg – Baltic Porter (6.0% ABV) #BalticPorter”
Jolly Sailor Brewery – Dark Nights Porter (5.0% ABV)
Hello Beer lovers, and welcome back to another review here at TEH.
