shitty beer names pumpclips
Britain has this shitty idea people want terrible puns and cheeky jokes as beer names and this irks me somewhat. A beer called 'Old Fart' or 'Heavy Knockers' is unclassy and downright shit. Post examples here.
The pic attached is from one of my brewing hero's yet I hate him for this appropriation
An Evening with /Beer/
Brewdog - Dead Pony Club
This is a 3.8% session pale ale, a favourite and a regular in my fridge. Aromas remeniscent of melon and strawberry but on the tongue melon gives way to a limey twang. The flavours are delicate but zero malt flavours making this a bitter little ripper
Shitty YouTube Beer Channel
I recently started a YouTube channel about reviewing beer with a friend of mind. We are far from BJCP certified, so a lot of our tastings are very basic (read: cringeworthy.) I don't know if promoting shit is frowned upon in this board, so I'll only post a link if somebody is actually interested.
Beer Facts, Knowledge and titbits
Title says a lot. A thread for wisdom and knowledge about beer. I'm passing this knowledge on mainly from one book by Jeff Evans which I won at a CAMRA national beer festival.

The Manx Pure Beer Act
Germany is not the only the only part of the world where the ingredients used to make beer are strictly controlled. Consider the following act from Isle of Man legislature.
'''The Brewers’ Act 1874
Paragraph 18: Miscellaneous
No brewer shall use in the brewing, making, mixing with, recovering
or colouring, any beer or liquid made to resemble beer, or have in his
possession any copperas, coculus Indicus, nux vomica, grains of
paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any article, ingredient or
preparation whatever, for, or as a substitute for, malt or sugar or hops.
For any offence against this section, the person offending shall incur a
penalty of three hundred pounds. And all such beer, or other liquid
brewed, made, or mixed as aforesaid, and also all the beer grounds
and stale beer brewed, made or mixed as aforesaid and all copperas,
coculus Indicus, nux vomica, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper,
opium, and every other article, ingredient, or preparation as aforesaid
(other than malt and sugar) in the custody and possession of such
brewer, together with every copper, cooler, tun, vat or other vessel or
utensil whatsoever, in which any such beer, liquid, material, article,
ingredient, or preparation shall be contained, or which shall have been
made use of or employed for or in the brewing, making, mixing with,
recovering, or colouring such beer or liquid, shall be forfeited to Her
Maiesty, her heirs and successors.'''
