Home House tasting

A small but illustrious band of beer enthusiasts gathered last night for a beer tasting at Home House Edinburgh. Home House is a wonderful members' club in the heart of the city, and Colin (the members' champion) is keen to get a beer club up and running. The first event stimulated a lot of debate around four diiferent beers from some of the finest brewers in the country. Keystone's Gold Spice intrigued the guests, and Lia Fail from Inveralmond wowed them. Hopefully there will be more to come over the next few months and more of the UK's finest can be tasted.

Thai me up

I see today that Chang Beer is being 'officially launched'. Everton fans will be chuffed. Not sure about beer drinkers though. Chang is an iconic beer in Thailand, of that there is no doubt. And I am sure Thai restaurants will welcome a competitor to Singha. But surely beer drinkers have nailed there colour to the mast in the UK: we make some of the best beer in the world! Let's celebrate that! Try Keystone's Gold Spice with Thai food.... absolutely superb!
