Bridgeport IPA and Sierra Nevada porter for NYE at a friends' place. Out of the bottle, in the backyard with marinated chicken skewers, slow roasted tomatoes and beef/beetroot mini burgers.

Went down a treat, nice quiet way to see in 2013.

Here is the edited highlights of the last week or so, don't know what has happen to the lambic bottles or most of the SN range.
Quite a few came here via Northside Novice.

I really enjoyed the northern hemisphere one as well. Good hop flavour with solid malt to back it.

Any beer that u can finish, and in 20min have a bit of.sponge cake, tonic water, ham with sweet chilli sauce, then still jave hops and malt lingering is a damn good beer. So well.crafted. Not chasing thoeretocal 100+ ibus but giving a huge hop beer with xomplexity and laasting impression. Top stuff.

Did they roast or otherwise, saute the beetroot? I've got a patch full currently. I don't really want to juice it due to lack of creativity.

Besides, I thought you once said beetroot '***** a good burger' or words to that effect.

I didn't agree with that opinion, I must say. I am very much in the ' scuse me, can I get beetroot on that' when I place my order.

The beetroot was actually in the burger patties. I don't like tinned beetroot on my fish and chip shop burgers - makes the bread go soggy.
The beetroot in the burgers was grated - couldn't say beyond that. I did the skewers and tomatoes.

Should be loads of things you can do with yours - goes well roasted with rabbit or just cooked through and diced into chunks with fresh tomatoes, mint, a touch of garlic and mint then dressed with yoghurt as a salad accompaniment to lamb or steak.

beetroot should be in slabs.
just saying

 

[TasChris]

Roasted baby beetroot with some rosemary and dressed with balsamic vinegar. Very tasty

 

[bum]

Yah. Roasted. Balsiamic.

Duck's nuts.

My sister bought this over straight from the brewery in NZ.
One of the real standout beers of the Xmas break. There were many, many others but this flagon of Bitter ***** was top stuff. Even if it was lacking in carbonation due to being filled 24hrs prior to arriving and not being refrigerated.

Mikkeller Single Hop Warrior IPA on tap at Archive - Super tasty IPA. Was more bitter than I expected but definitely not in a bad way. Interesting aroma. Will definitely have to check these hops out.

Settling in for the night with a six pack of Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale and Sierra Nevada Tumbler brown ale. Both going down nicely by the pool leaving me almost ready for bed already :icon_cheers:

Went to Craft in Red Hill today, nice little place. Had some tastings open, Tony the guy serving was very nice and hospitable.
Bought a few to try


At the moment trying the Meantime Raspberry Wheat.. it's not fantastic. Tastes like a watered down Timmermans Kriek.
