Mind you that was some time ago and I think I am more attuned to Brett now!. It's probably true that I detect it now where it doesn't exist!<br /><br />It seems to be accepted widely that Schultheiss was better than Kindl. Was Brett the reason?mentaldentalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15226160741245530097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-15349174884926427272009-08-24T00:58:51.631-07:002009-08-24T00:58:51.631-07:00Beer Nut, mine's the beer.Beer Nut, mine's the beer.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-6193210527830957382009-08-23T17:47:58.178-07:002009-08-23T17:47:58.178-07:00Well, hey.

That was, for me, one of the things in it that I preferred over Kindl. Unfortunately, only Kindl was ever available in my local stores, and then only sometimes.Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00884188052527454989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-83482845472482390382009-08-23T12:58:45.940-07:002009-08-23T12:58:45.940-07:00Beer Nut: she does look like she has been sent fro...Beer Nut: she does look like she has been sent from Satan!<br /><br />Ron: interesting and surprising about the Brett. It's not obvious in the flavour/aroma but I guess, since it is a "brewery infection", it's effects are present at pretty low levels.<br /><br />Any information about the strain of Brett? And is it present in some or all examples?mentaldentalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15226160741245530097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-31379098342645235612009-08-23T12:23:07.382-07:002009-08-23T12:23:07.382-07:00Ron, your willingness to admit past errors is both...Ron, your willingness to admit past errors is both admirable and unusual.<br /><br />Just got the latest 'Good Bottled Beer Guide' from CAMRA, now organised into styles rather than brewers. The intro to mild now makes clear that mild originally meant young rather than lightly hopped. The one on porter repeats the 'three threads' story, balances it with a Martyn Cornell quote saying it's bollocks and concludes that no one really knows! 'IPA was strong and hoppy to survive the sea journey to India' survives intact as does 'pale ale and bitter are historically different beers'.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09310220100267028274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-1177874900058825592009-08-23T10:52:00.577-07:002009-08-23T10:52:00.577-07:00That picture: I don't fancy yours much.That picture: I don't fancy yours much.The Beer Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105708522526153528noreply@blogger.com
