The Grand Central is having their full Oktoberfest party next saturday/night (27th). I will be there doing a few bits and pieces for them so if anyone feels like dropping in for a beer and a chat.....
I think that as well as the beers on tap there is going to be a few good bottled Germans as well (aventinus etc) ...and I may be wrong but I also think that Hofbrau Oktoberfest is going to be on tap as well.

Hi Ian,

20 German beers on offer plus your 2 according to the sunday Mail today. Hopefully I can make it

Cheers Ross

Hey Beersom,

I met up with Ross and Jye and a few of the crew on Friday at the Grand Central and tried your brews. very nice indeed! I particularly enjoyed the Rauchbier. Full kudos to you for having the balls to produce such a beer on a commercial scale. Everyone I spoke to who tried it was very impressed. The wheatie was also delicious! I'm definitely tempted to try and get back there this Saturday night.

Cheers - Snow.

Beersom, one of your babies has woken up from it's winter slumber.



This bad girl and her sister will be decorating the front of the brewery next year.

Parent plant in it's second year is putting on 100mm per day at present. This is the only one up so far, another for you and one for Winkle and Browndog. Wildayeast has collected his two, haven't heard if his have woken up yet.

Edit: Split the last two, one for Winkle and one for Browndog - so long as they come up !

The Rauch is great, I ended up downing a few steins of it and the hefe (also good) on Saturday evening :chug: . Is this going to be on tap regularly Ian?

At the brewery - yes, should be on for a while.
At other venues - not sure, after the grand central it may pop its head up from time to time in a few places.
I am still not sure whether this will be a permanent beer in the line-up or just a seasonal .... I guess that depends on the reception it gets .... so far so good, but it is a style the some people find confronting. I could drink gallons of it myself

Hi Ian,

I've not been a great lover of smoked beers in the past & have often said that smoke has no place in a brew. But that said, I thouroughly enjoyed yours, as I did Redoaks (peated rather than regular smoked) & am now starting to get a real taste for them . My Smoked Marzen is just running dry & I will be working out something new to brew very shortly...

cheers Ross
