America again – I’m definitely moving. Specifically, 10 Barrel Brewing Co. which started brewing in 2006 in Bend, Oregon. This brewery offers a selection of beers, but today’s choice is the simply named (and logo’d) Pub Beer. 10 Barrel’s website is great,… Read more 10 Barrel Brewing Co Pub Beer – America doesn’t understand pubs
I was excited to try this malty pilsner from the Norwegian brewery Amundsen Bryggeri & Spiseri; but that was mostly due to it being in one of those wide-topped cans that I find particularly satisfying to open. (Nope, I don’t… Read more Amundsen Run To The Pils – Just don’t run too far to pick one up
The only lager on offer in a local Turkish restaurant is this little number – Efes Draft from Turkish brewer Anadolu Efes, based in Istanbul. Previously, they offered Efes Pilsen; this is the first time I’ve come across the “draft” variety –… Read more Anadolu Efes Efes Draft – Turkish Delight
Another beer that I’ve drunk for a long time, but not yet got around to reviewing – Beavertown Neck Oil (Session IPA). I’ve read a plethora of stories on the creation of the Beavertown brewery, not all of which align. However,… Read more Beavertown Neck Oil Session IPA – Delicious, refreshing, vegan-friendly session IPA

Another lager for me today – Berliner Pilsner. This one confused me from the start, as I haven’t had it before, and wanted to do a bit of research into it. The name itself is also a general style of… Read more Berliner Pilsner – Disappointing, confused lager
Recently travelling to France, I had the pleasure of visiting (not for the first time!) La Maison des Vins d’Ancenis. Most people are there for the wine – understandably so – but they also stock some rather random beers that I… Read more Bières Levrette Levrette Cherry – Beer that tastes like sweets!
I popped to another local of the office tonight, Fountain and Ink at Southwark. A night of non-drinking for me meant asking if they had anything low in alcohol, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that they had multiple… Read more Big Drop Brewing Co Pale Ale – A zesty, low alcohol pale ale
Despite the snow, I fancied a nice cold lager, so reached for something I haven’t tried before – Blue Point Brewing’s Toasted Lager. I’ve had the Mosaic Session IPA from Blue Point Brewing before, but I think this is the… Read more Blue Point Brewing Toasted Lager – Easy drinking lager with a nice crisp taste
A confusing name with this one – the beer is called Brew York Brew York, and the brewery is Brew York. So technically it’s Brew York’s Brew York Brew York. Try saying that quickly after drinking a few! The brewery… Read more Brew York’s Brew York Brew York – Named twice, hopped thrice
