Sweeeeeet!

The next major 'event' at The Rake will be the Lambic Festival which starts on Sunday 1st November. This one is Toms baby and he's going all the way to belgium to get the beers next weekend.
Expect the unexpected with regard to some of these. Some of them will probably have never been seen in the UK before and perhaps never will again.
As far as we know this is the first time a beer festival in the UK has been exclusively dedicated to Lambic beers and we're really excited about this one.
Festiva… Continue

A Hyperbole of Hilarity

As I was away during the news of BrewDog's latest effort I wasn't going to get hot & bothered about it, in fact I'm still mostly nonplussed by the idea and just hope they carry on brewing stuff like Halcyon  Hardcore (apologies for blonde moment, had been doing my GBBF list and it was the last one added and on the brain) and doing less like the End of History, but that's just me I guess.

However, when you come across something as truly hilarious, ingenious and downright brilliant like this, you just have to share it... well done Dan Payne of Beer-Ritz, if I had my way I'd just award you the British Guild of Beer Writers blogger of the year now!

P.S. I'm deeply concerned to hear rumours that the original brew dog, Bracken, has taken the precaution of having his orifices forcibly sealed shut in case a bottle is bought anywhere near him... poor pooch, a catheterised canine is not a pleasant thought in anyone's book really!
