Saturday, January 10, 2015. What is (not "was") the difference between a stout and a porter? Roast barley, earlier. A while ago the mighty zythophile was able to clarify. Historically, to say roast barley is a differentiator between porter and stout is wrong. Of course, "historically" there's a great deal of truth in that. Naturally, it depends what you mean by "historically", but we'll let that stand. But what about non-historically? Or, as we might say, " now. Let's have a quick look. Rather than the t...

Wee Beefy's beer and pub blog. See what the pub companies can't - celebrate Britain's pubs and beer. Thursday, 30 July 2015. Many people were disappointed with the Tramlines festival. One of my Faceache chums described it as a "mega corporate money grabbing c*nt fest", but another said "got a positive reaction from lots of new faces, which is one of the great things about Tramlines, and it gets better every year". The thing is, who cares? Nobody mentioned, or grumbled about , the beers. The beers! A pint...

At the end of January Wee Fatha and Wee Keefy and Tash and me were set to go to the folk night at the Royal Cottage. Alas, a surfeit of snow and potentially treacherous moorland conditions between Buxton and Leek meant we were denied the opportunity. Instead, a few weeks ago we decided to visit on a Saturday night. The Olde Rock Inn. Recen...

Tuesday, March 18, 2014. This "new" thing they call "craft". It just occurred to me, how much of the problem some people seem to have with the c-word may be down, not to over-use. And there has been of late), but rather to lack. Of familiarity. I spotted a knowledgeable beer blogger apparently expressing surprise. At the term "craft butcher". This is a long established usage; I mean there's even a magazine. Did we forget craft potters, craft furniture makers, etc? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Nautical vie...

Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Mash efficiency, etc, according to the Professor. We recently came across a piece by blogging home/craft brewer (and, we're sure, diamond geezer) broadfordbrewer. Reading an account of a yummy sounding raspberry wheat brew, we were a bit confused by some of the calculations employed in estimating efficiencies. So, as we usually do when confused (and we usually are), we asked the Professor for help. Degrees = (SG x 1000) - 1000. ºPlato = degrees / 4 [approx]. Expressed in diffe...
