German cops impound motorised beer crate ? The Register

Crazy Germans. The Scots need to one-up them on this too.

I've had iced IPA before (which is what they did here), from a local homebrewer. Extremely awful.

i can't imagine it would be good.

Anyone wants any and I'll be happy to bring it over in June. I get 20% off everything because I bought a share in the company. Same if you want any Tactical Nuclear Penguin, the Tokyo* (the best beer ever, ever,ever,evererverververever) is all sold out though.

[EdipisReks]

my local Scottish place had this amazing BrewDog a couple months ago. a "real" cask beer, it was an imperial stout aged in Lagavulin barrels. that was perhaps the best beer ever. Nicholson's is really fucking expensive, too expensive for their food (which is decent), but they have an amazing bar, something like 6 varieties of cask ale at any given time, not to mention shit tons of everything else.

[Duggeh]

Was it the cask Paradox? All of the various Paradox lots are whisky aged brews and are almost universally delicious.

I think you need a Tactical Nuclear Penguin dude.

[EdipisReks]

yes, Paradox, that is the one. really fucking good. went great with shepherd's pie.

i want to try TNP, definitely.

[Duggeh]

It'll be at Canjam. I hope to bring more than one. Depends on if i see the money the TR-2 git fucked me for.

[EdipisReks]

do you need a donation? my local liquor store gets several BrewDog beers (along with hundreds of other beers, the place rocks), but not that one.

[Duggeh]

£35 and you can have your own bottle. Less than that if I make it part of a larger order, which I'll be making in a bit.

[EdipisReks]

what is that in real money?

[Duggeh]

At the minute any money which isn't Euros or Icelandic Krona is real.

But about $55.

The Paradox Smokehead is very good (indeed!). Anybody had a J.W. Lees vintage ale? I got a couple bottles that were brewed in 2005 and aged in Lagavulin casks... and tasted not a thing like Lagavulin. Wait, I feel like I've posted this before, probably in the what are you drinking thread. Oh well... It was still very disappointing. I paid about $15 for a small bottle of 1999 J.W. Lees and I'm afraid that 10+ years won't do any more than 5 did for that ultrasweet nasty swill.

if the yeast is hearty enough, it should get less sweet over time

[Duggeh]

Anybody who wants TNP or Bismarck (or Tokyo*, Luvians still has a couple of bottles left). I can relay bottles through.

[deepak]

Doug curious which ones you brought to DJ?

[Duggeh]

I brought Tokyo* to Danjam, one bottle for trying (who tried it, I do not recall, not enough people) and a bottle for Dan for setting the event up. I should have bought more. It doesn't dispense to neatly as TNP because its still a beer. You don't treat it like scotch.

Also brought a bottle of Edradour scotch and a bottle of Hendricks gin.

I also remember apologising profusely because the Rip Tide which got hoovered up at the beer run turned out to be rubbish. Taste ruined by transatlantic shipping. Then it turned out that it was just a duff bottle. The gin was also ill-served. But we did have no cucumber.


If anyone has any kind of request for stuff thats unavailable or more expensive on that side of the water ill do my best to help in delivery. The Edradour at Danjam went down well but I've no idea if it costs something horrid over there.

[naamanf]

I request Iraq Jam 2010 with cases of TNP para-dropped by the Swedish bikini team.

[Voltron]

Fucking fuck. When do you leave?
