Excellent work there. Jackhammer is beautifully bitter and I'm really liking Beavertown.

Had a pint of Jackhammer at the Camden Brewdog pub thought it was excellent. The owner of Trafalgar Wines was moaning about Beaver Town saying they have got too big too quickly and are difficult to do business with, he is a big fan of their beers though. I originally went in for a gammar ray but they had sold out.

Photo orientation from iDevices can be wrong when viewed on other devices sometimes - http://iphonephotographyschool.com/iphone-photos-upside-down/

I reckon if you went into photos and then edited the photo, rotated it 4 times and then saved it again, it would probably be OK. Most of your photos are on their side when I view them.

The two on this thread are on on my iPhone. I suspect they won't be on my Macbook though.

Seems to work, rotated four times and saved and when viewed on the Frau's MacBook Pro alles gut.

Totally agree, it is all about personal taste but Jackhammer is perfect for me as I love beers when they ramp up the alcohol a bit but offset it with tons of hops; Jackhammer is a perfect example. That said, you have great taste!

I wouldn't know about the business side of Beavertown but can imagine it's an issue for many small brewers...but their beers are fantastic. Have you tried their blood orange IPA? I had the good fortune to go to their pub last year. A great night.

Not as yet, but I did see it today. Next time I'm going up to London by train I'll get an assortment of Beavertown cans.

Couple of pints of Sharps IPA (they'd run out of Doom Bar at the rugby club).

On an associated topic, I always like beer out of a jug pint glass like they used to serve up in the 70's - why do pubs never use these any more?

The old dimpled glasses? Was amazed to be offered one at The Black Swan in Gweek a few weeks ago. Probably the first time since the 70s. Tasted good in that!

 

[Bozza]

Bottle of Pinot Grigio for one. Very enjoyable.
