coalition old ale 7 abv is the result of a collaboration between the thornbridge and mark tranter from the ever excellent dark star i first tried this beer a few months back at one of our fabled bottle swaps courtesy of those kind chaps andy and james of summerwine brewery as i sat and tasted mine i was very aware of how i d probably need another chance to try it to really form an opinion of it i certainly wasn t expecting the kind of beer that it actually is not sure why i just expected something darker smokier and stronger in alcohol luckily hopzine rob and baron orm rushed to my aid and i managed to get my hands on another bottle and i m glad i did coalition old ale is an exercise in subtlety a real class act firstly there s that colour hazy amber bright and well vibrant not the look of a beer dormant since 2009 the lasting substantial head is the only giveaway to the age slightly tobacco hued not quite white the taste is softly sweet with only the slightest hint of resinous wood pine floating around underneath there s a little spice cinnamon perhaps and then comes along those flavours you d more typically associate with old ales some raisin some bitter cherry a hint of almond the finish ramps up the bitterness and the beer ends up with a really satisfying orange note drying the palate and making it a surprisingly moreish beer the alcohol is only gently warming and coalition is well worth seeking out if you can a beer to be sipped and savoured for sure posted by leigh at wednesday june 22 2011 6 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels beer reviews coalition old ale dark star brewery thornbridge brewery sunday june 19 2011 philly cheese steak adventures despite spending at least one drinking session a week at mr foley s cask ale house it occurred to me recently that i don t really drink from the fridges i couldn t explain why i do in other joints but that row of pumpclips usually takes up 110 of my attention at the same time dean had been recommending their new philly cheese steak strips of steak cheese bell pepper on a baguette roll crafted lovingly by new ish chef tyler kiley fast forward a few weeks and you ve got me and my erstwhile drinking buddy and wingman on many excursions you may read about on tgs chris and a clear mission find a match in those fridges for a philly cheese steak sandwich so we rocked up and took four bottles with four clearly different styles goose island s 312 urban wheat odell s 5 barrel pale ale victory s prima pils and sierra nevada s torpedo the food arrived and we got stuck in although goose island s 312 urban wheat 4 2 abv was pleasant enough it faded into nothingness when faced with this kind of food more a wheaty pale ale than a true wheat beer in my opinion it quenched our thirst alright but did nothing to enhance or cut the food we finished the 312 quickly it s such an easy drinking beer and one i drink a lot of in the summer give me this and a bowl of calamari or fried whitebait laced with lemon and i d be in heaven victory s prima pils 5 3 abv was just weird it claims to be a pils but for me hits nowhere near the mark it s refreshing enough when served cool but has so much flowery hoppiness up front that it just bulldozes your palate as opposed to the classy herbal hop attack that good pilsners or lagers have it accompanied the amazing chips well enough more on those later but in this set up it just didn t work at all i ve enjoyed this on keg before but the bottles have just left me cold chris agreed and i actually finished his luckily odell s 5 barrel pale 5 2 abv saved the day basically a standard well brewed us pale the sweet boiled candy led body matched the cheddar and beef perfectly the caramelised bell pepper finding perfect bedfellow in this sweet softly hopped beer nothing overpowered nothing fought for your attention that s one of the great things about matching beer and food beer previously thought slightly standard just find another dimension we sank into our chairs chatted with tyler and patted our full bellies sierra nevada s torpedo 7 2 abv rounded things off nicely very much a classic us iipa it s closeness to the odell in layman s terms a hoppier version of made it an excellent partner almost a sister to the food and beer it gave a strong sweet closing note to the evening i personally think torpedo is probably the best overall beer sn have made for some time a welcome addition to their stable the food was great too tyler s a talented chef when it comes to tasty unfussy bar food packed with flavour he s finding his feet in the beer world too broadening his horizons as he goes when it comes to beers from the uk he s just started his own blog at the end of the day any chef that understands that killer home made chips are key to any pub s food offering knows his stuff do drop by and check out the chips at least triple cooked sticks of joy and if you try the philly cheese steak go for an odell 5 barrel and finish off with a torpedo or don t go on your own beer and food matching journey and let me know how you get on posted by leigh at sunday june 19 2011 3 comments email this blogthis share

can be as complex as you want them to be a quick storecupboard supper or a sumptous feast to be labored over on the stove top this week time was at a premium so quick and easy it was pea and ham that old classic doesn t need boiled ham hock to make it perfect all you need do is make sure you have some good quality off the bone ham left over that can be shredded make your regular risotto base by coating arborio rice in butter and olive oil and stirring over a low heat until translucent when this happens simply pour chicken stock over bit by bit until it gets creamy and begins to look like risotto here s where you modify shred the ham in and add a handful of frozen peas let the meat warm and the peas cook and season with black pepper and mint the mint is essential as it lifts everything up and gives this risotto a lightness grate in some parmagiano regianno and a hit of black pepper finally stir in a knob of butter all done we enjoyed this with a bottle of birra del borgo s genziana 6 2 abv which is a funny beer to categorise the word herbal was the first that sprang to mind saison esque and wheaty with an estery profile it s refreshing and slightly citrussy but with a distinctive herbal note within that matched really well with the mint in the risotto sweet it s one of those beers that probably comes to life a little better with food that without posted by leigh at

darkside st austell proper job proper black it s taken me a while to post this up i just had to wait to do a side by side comparison when a brewer makes a light and dark version of the same beer st austell that cornish bedrock of the eponymous tribute have always had a few secret weapons up their sleeve admiral s ale is a fantastically complex drop and you ll find a secret fan club for proper job what makes proper job 5 5 abv a little special is the fact that it s almost unashamedly non commercial a truly english ipa that manages to be both tasty and assertive enough to satisfy traditionalists and hop heads alike there s smooth wheaty malt sure but over the top there s a marmalade heavy juiciness and on top of that richness comes zingy grapefruit notes both in the aroma and the taste the bitterness is as the label states for a change powerful and supremely rising in it s assertiveness this is not a crowd pleaser proper job manages to tread that line between mainstream and different very well indeed proper black 6 abv arrived to very little fanfare when the world was going crazy for black ipa and again there s a great balance here tasting the two side by side almost makes me want the same beer but different colours even the label is a negative version of the original but proper black manages to be even more assertive if you ask me black as night the body of the beer is massively different to it s lighter sister massive roasted notes milk chocolate drying coffee latte espresso give the beer a full yet rounded body and all those bitter end of the scale flavours give pb a dry dry finish to counter this the hop profile seems almost twice a big as pj grapefruit upon grapefruit upon orange pith big brash and powerful proper black is one beer not to be messed with whilst we are on the black ipa channel buxton s wonderful black rocks is on at north bar this weekend alongside moor top kinder sunset and the awesome axe edge ipa put this alongside proper job and you ve got a very different prospect br is much much fruitier tropical fruits lychee and strawberry dominate and the body of the beer is light enough to lift those up but roasty enough to make sure you know it s a dark beer fruity smooth and with a real depth black rocks is one of the most balanced drinkable bipa s i ve tried posted by leigh at sunday june 05 2011 5 comments email

remind you that this weekend sees the second ls6 beer festival in the left bank burley hyde park depending how you look at it it s all in aid of charity village to village and has a great beer selection of truly local beers from the likes of burley street ilkley rooster s abbeydale and beartown amongst others there are bands playing throughout the day and it s very much a music and beer festival so if you like to see local talent thrashing away with your pint then you know where to be this weekend the website advises tickets and arriving early directions the beer list and band roster

festival charities tuesday may 31 2011 copper dragon conqueror i d been hearing incredibly positive whispers about copper dragon s new beer for a few weeks now so when it popped up on the bar at veritas i had to get my hands on some conqueror 3 6 on the surface looks like your bog standard pale ale tight white head and soft amber colour vaguely medieval pump clip but when you lift it to your lips you realise it s a whole lot more mango lychee and even a hint of strawberry float up your nose and on the taste conqueror reveals itself to be a wonderfully balanced supremely quaffable pale ale with a seriously clean finish there s so much flavour for such a low abv and the it s simply a top notch beer we all know that oliver fozard will soon be if not already ensconced in his new role at rooster s his parting gift to copper dragon turns out to be their finest yet i m one person hoping conqueror hangs around untouched and unt weaked and i m sure after you drink it you will too it s on at veritas now and yes i know it s william the conqueror but you get my point posted by leigh at tuesday may 31 2011 5 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest
