Subjective ramblings about beer, pubs and associated topics

Byens øl (Denmark)

This is a beer brewed on the Danish island of Bornholm, far away from the rest of the country in the middle of the Baltic sea – easier to reach from Poland or Sweden, actually. The island has been mostly famous as a summer resort and a producer of smoked herring, but now there is a micro there, Svaneke Bryghus – they are popping up all over Denmark. The beer was originally brewed as a Christmas beer, but they decided to add some more hops to make a special bottled beer for a pub in Copenhagen, Byens Kro.

Lots of sweet malt, it tastes of brown sugar or syrup. But then the hops add the neccessary aromatic bitterness, which makes this a very pleasant beer indeed. Available in supermarkets across Denmark if you're lucky.

Strong brews for cold weather

Eric Asimov writes about beer for cold weather in the New York Times - an article with the same angle I used when writing about the porter and stout from Samuel Smith's the other week:

People who love cold weather appreciate it not just for the skiing, the ice fishing or the joy of having their eyelashes turn brittle enough to break in the winter chill. No, they love it because when the insanity is over, getting warm feels so gloriously wonderful. That is the moment for a cozy fire, woolen socks and a favorite robe; for Tolstoy, not a tell-all; for nutritious resonance rather than fleeting charm. And it is the time for barley wine, the robust, complex brewed counterpart to Port, Madeira or Armagnac.

The NYT panel  sampled 25 barley wines - 20 from the United States, four from Britain, and one from the Netherlands. Multimedia presentation, too.

A beer for Ibsen?

Sometimes someone comes up with an idea at the same time as you, but they publish first and get the credit. In Oslo we still have a newspaper with both morning and evening editions, with the latter being mostly a collection of whining about the state of transport/education/skating rinks etc. in our city. Yesterday they proposed a beer to celebrate the 150th anniversary of playwright Henrik Ibsen, one of the few Norwegians famous just about everywhere. As the festivities are starting up, I have had the same idea, and I even have a proposal for which brewery should do it. This is a job for Nøgne ø brewery in Grimstad. They are located in a town where Ibsen once lived, and they even have taken their name - naked island - from one of his epic poems. So, my proposal is that they should make an Ibsen beer, I'm sure they will come up with something good!

Menawhile, I tried two of their current beers last night. Their Trippel is a shot at making a Belgian style Trippel, but it is not an unqualifies success. It has a complex sweet & sour taste, but it is not quite there. This has not been released for general sale, as they were not totally happy with the outcome themselves. It is not at all unpleasant, other breweries would be happy to market such a product, but it is more that it does not quite rank with their other excellent beers.

Better then their Amber ale, which I thought was just released, but at least has not ben widely available. A virtual explosion of hops in the mouth with a full malty character underneath with sweetness and a straw flavour. This must be their best beer so far - I look forward to comparing it with their IPA.

St Peter's Winter Ale

I could have made a post only for the photo, but the contents of the bottle were excellent, too!

Many of the English Winter Warmer ales tend to be a bit weak to have any real warming effect, but St. Peter's have made a brew at 6,5% which is just fine in that respect. It is related to a stout with the toasted  grain flavour. On top of that some fruity maltiness which finishes with a liberal dose of hops. Not hopped for a sourness you find in old ales, rather a flowery hoppiness which I really enjoyed. This is, as the name implies,  seasonally available, I think I even spotted it in the list of Swedish Systembolaget. I bought mine at the Jerusalem Tavern in London. Get it if you can!

Beer books

There is still a staggering number of German breweries operating, from brewpubs to global brand names. While it could be argued that only a small percentage of these produce very exciting beers, it is worth noting that all this brewing activity also leads to secondary industries. Among those you have publishers specializing in beer and brewery books, and I came across Hans Carl. They have been publishing brewery books and periodicals for almost 150 years, and they have an online catalogue which makes interesting browsing.

 

Most of the books are obviously in German, but some have parallel editions in English. The titles range from the purely technical to reference books such as a hop atlas. There is a Katechismus der Brauerei-Praxis, German-English, German-Spanish and German-Chinese brewery dictionaries, an address list of German brewers than run to 432 pages... There is even a bargain section with very attractive prices – you can pick up a primer on the chemical and technical aspects of bottle washing for the price of a glass of beer.

A wee dram for Robbie

Tonight they celebrate Robert Burns around the world, though I am not aware of anything public going on here in . I don’t think you can get proper haggis here, either, which is usually a central part of the festivities. I suppose I have to make do with a wee dram, or why not a bottle of Scottish ale?

I have only been to once, in the early eighties, and this was way before CAMRA had made any breakthrough on quality beers, at least north of the border. We ordered rounds of heavy, and I was shown how to use my thumb to swirl in the beer to release some of the fizz in it to make it easier to swallow. (I think my instructor in this art of drinking is now a member of the Scottish Parliament – a little knowledge can get you a long way!)

Now there are quality Scottish ales available, also brewed for export. Here in we can get bottled St Andrews Ale, which is a decent brew, tasting of flowers and apricot and with some nice hops giving bitterness in the aftertaste. A pity it is marketed not for its taste, but for the golf connections.

If you can get hold of a bottle of Traquair House Ale, you really have something proper to toast the old poet in. Orange , lemon and lime flavour plus peppery hops. Is it an old ale or a barley wine? It does not matter! A pleasant sour and sweet aroma. Molasses, spices and fruit – packed into a small bottle. And, in contrast to the Brøckhouse brew reviewed recently, it has all these aromas and flavours from malt, yeast and hops alone. Magic.

As for whisky, why not a Highland Park single malt?

Jerusalem Tavern

I still plan to get around to a general article on London pubs, but here is at least some words about a pub which you all should seek out. While the pubs in the most pricey areas of Soho and Covent Garden tend to be fake Irish identikit places, the rest of London has lots of great pubs. Many of them belong to the London brewers Fuller’s or Young’s, but there are others as well if you take the time to seek them out.

A one of a kind pub is the Jerusalem Tavern, the only London pub run by St. Peter’s Brewery in Suffolk (where they have their only other pub.) The building dates back to 1720, and is located close to the Smithfield meat market, a few minutes walk from the Museum of London .

I would guess that this rather small pub fills up rather quickly both at lunchtime and after office hours, so try to do as I did and find a quiet afternoon.

 

The beers range from splendid examples of classic British beers to more experimental brews, and you should be able to find someone to your liking. At any time there are six or seven beers on tap, and the rest of the range is available bottled. To get through as many as possible, I ordered half-pints, which is certainly not my ordinary size of glass.

I started with an Organic Best Bitter, which was, simply, an English bitter as good as it gets. Very hoppy, with an almost chalky finish. The Golden ale was more related to a lager, and while a good beer, it did not reach the heights of the bitter. The Cream Stout was another winner, with a full aroma that should be the envy of a certain Dublin Brewer. Lots of molasses and coffee gives a full aroma. Bittersweet finish from Fuggles and Challenger Hops.  

 Suffolk Gold is an ale brewed with lots of First Gold hops – Nirvana for a hop addict like me.

The only one I felt lukewarm about, was the Lemon & Ginger Spiced Ale, which I felt was too much of a novelty beer. Maybe something to drink with sushi – take a sip of this between bites instead of pickled ginger?

 

 

Friendly staff, with solid knowledge about their trade. The secret behind a range of six real ales on tap in a small pub is to have small casks. They use casks which are half the size of the ones used in most pubs, which means they can keep the beer fresh at all times.

I staggered out after a few hours, as they unfortunately only serve food (or do food, as they say) at lunchtime, but with clear intentions to return at the first opportunity. I bought with me a few bottles from their fridge to enjoy at home, too. A review of their Winter Ale shortly. I believe they export some of their beers, and some of them are available in shops such as the beer shop in Borough Market as well.

St. Peter’s Brewery was recently up for sale, as the current owners felt they had reached a stage when more capital was needed to expand. The latest reports say they have withdrawn this offer, and we can count ourselves lucky that they were not bought up by one of the big lager lads!

Pub signs

Some of you have mentioned that I illustrate some of my blog entries with photos of English pub signs, even if the subject of the day is very distantly related to the illustration. I am happy to say I have found an organization even more interested in pub signs than me, and in ths day and age they have a web site, too. Have a look at the Inn Sign Society!

Dark as a dungeon

50 cm of fresh snow here, so we got up early this morning. The rest of the family went downhill skiing, while I went cross country in the forest. It was cold and a bit foggy, but it was really nice until our feet got cold around midday. Home and a nice dinner of boiled beef in onion gravy. How to end a day like this? A porter or a stout. Or both? The state liquour store Vinmonopolet has two excellent beer from English brewer Samuel Smith's, Taddy Porter and Imperial Stout. Excellent brews both of them, pitch black.

The porter tastes of roasted malt and coffee, with the hops bringing some resin. Very rich, you feel you could almost eat this with a fork! And the stout is clearly related, if possilbe with even more flavour. The porter is more malty, perhaps, while the stout is drier and more hoppy. Both are brewed in open slate vessles - looks like this has been done like this for ages, but it is actually a recreation of old methods revived in the 1980s. The brewery has some novel serving suggestions fro the Imperial Stout: Espresso, Stilton and walnuts, New York cheesecake, steak au poivre, caviar, Oysters Rockefeller, chocolate Baked Alaska. Easily hold its own in the company of cigars. Serve in a brandy snifter at 60 degrees.

Splendid for after ski.

Another form of beer travel

When I moved to Oslo quite a few years ago, there was a brewpub in Karl Johans Gate, in the building where they have opened a Hard Rock Cafe recently. They had one dark beer and one pilsener, and the beer was nothing special, as far as I can remember. When I tidied up in the basement recently, I found a beer glass I must have nicked there one evening. I thought the German-sounding Brauhaus Joh Albrecht was something thought up by some local marketing people. While looking for German brewpubs on the web the other day, I recognized the name and the logo. It seems these guys are setting up brewpubs just about everywhere - lots of them in Japan, and they are in Latvia, Russia and Korea, too. There is a magazine feature story in there, for sure!

It's not a beer belly, it's the fatty food

Beer drinkers are more likely to buy unhealthy food such as chips and ready meals than people who prefer wine, according to a study quoted by the Beeb.

A Danish team studying 3.5m supermarket transactions found wine buyers bought more olives, fruit and vegetables. Beer drinkers meanwhile chose fattier, meatier options, the study in the British Medical Journal said.

This probably applies to the lager crowd. As for us enjoying the craft beer, I think we want quality food as well.

I managed to get hold of was kindly given a bottle of the legendary Trippel from the Nøgne ø micro here in Norway. It is not on sale regularly, but some pubs or bars may stock it. Anyway, for the sediment to settle at the bottom, I have to wait some days before enjoying it. It is very appropriate that I have a bottle of the Danish Brøckhouse version of Trappist beer that I can enjoy tonight!Brewed on wheat, barley and rye and with some herbs and spices, too, according to their web site. And I think there is one Rankin book that I haven't read yet. To top it all up, they are showing The Concert for Bangla Desh on television tonight. Have a nice weekend!

Have thirst, will travel

It seems like I will visit Italy, Sweden, Austria, Greece, the Netherlands and Ireland this year. If I do my planning right, I should be able to make stopovers in Germany and Denmark, too. And maybe a trip to London in early December as usual. Maybe some side trips from Vienna to the Czech Republic and from the Hague to Belgium if time allows?

I'm off on my first excursion to Italy in a few weeks, and I have booked a ticket giving me a few hours in Frankfurt. I'll have to check the connections to see if I go into town or just do some shopping at the airport.

Swedish brewers

The Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet has set up a list with links to all the small breweries in Sweden currently operating. Useful. In Norway we have still not reached the number to make it neccesary to make a list!

A dry museum

I stumbled across a temporary exhibition commemorating the relationship between and during our hundred years of independence at the weekend. The exhibition is located at the Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology in Oslo , and I naturally looked for a beery angle to this as I usually try to.

It is made up of a number of small displays, the most impressive one of the major paintings of Norwegian painter Odd Nerdrum. There is the usual stuff about technology and coverage of WW 2, and I suppose it is mainly aimed at pupils and students. They say they try to challenge the stereotypes Norwegians and Germans may have about each other, but that is probably done when they do guided tours – which they didn’t do on Sunday.

 As for the beer angle, I bravely broke the photography ban and can show you the meagre results. A few souvenir mugs, and empty bottle of beer .. and that’s about it. Maybe they had Lövenbräu at the opening for all I know, but if so they had run out when I was there.

Old Tom

Another English old ale, this time Robinson's Old Tom. A nice bottle design to start with, and it is a fine example of this ale type, if not outstanding. A character of cask wood, port and dried fruits. The hops add some grapefruit aroma, which I suppose will mellow and bled with the rest if you keep this for a few years. A little fizzy when you open the bottle, but that dies out fast. I have depleted my store of old ales at the moment, and that is really OK. I don't think I will seek out an old ale festival, this is a type of ale where a few bottles a year is fine.

When beer bloggers meet

I met up with fellow blogger Lars last week. After commenting on each other’s blogs for some time, we felt it appropriate to meet for a pint since we live in the same town.

 We decided to meet at Oslo Mikrobryggeri, the only brewpub in town. They have managed to hang on for quite a few years, and the beers were certainly all right.

 We both liked the Christmas beer best, a well balanced ale that combines a malty sweetness typical of Norwegian Christmas beers with lots of hops which adds pine and flowers to the aroma. Their Imperial stout was also fine – though Irish stout would probably be a better label. Tastes of dry roasted malt, lovely appearance, but not quite enough aroma. The Ecological Ale is the first of its kind in Norway. Some bitterness and aroma from the hops, but rather thin. The porter was not too successful, either. I love lots of hops in my beer, but in this one they were overwhelming, making a beer that was too bitter and unbalanced.

 

It’s nice to do some tasting with a fellow blogger, and we’ll certainly meet again for further research.

Dark Destroyer

An English micro from the White Star brewery in Southampton. They use a maritime concept for their ales, so it is appropriate that it smells of tar like an old sailing ship, with hints of spices and molasses from far away harbours. Roasted malt flavour and a generous use of hops adds dryness. The only objection is that the beer is a little light - I would have liked a bit more kick and a bit more flavour. I think I am a bit spoilt from lots of great beers lately! This one was bought at the Real Ale shop in Twickenham, London.

New book

Just ordered Gone for a Burton by Bob Ricketts - a new name in beer writing for me. Sounds from the blurb that the author is trying to bite over more than he can chew - So it is both a particular history - of the author, and of the beer-making process - and a wider social history that focuses on British customs in the recent yet in many ways distant past. Add to this plenty of humor and ferment, and you have the recipe for a heady brew. - but I will let you know, OK?

" A man with a ram's head would not be seen to be attractive"

Seems like the British are catching up on us Scandinavians when it comes to regulating ads. Two ads from London brewers Young's have become the first to be banned by The Advertising Standards Authority .

From the ruling:

We considered that a man with a ram's head would not be seen to be attractive and that the poster did not therefore link alcohol with enhanced attractiveness. For the same reason, we considered that the scene did not suggest the 'ram' would be sexually successful with the women around the pool. We considered, however, that the strap line "This is a ram's world" emphasised that Young's drinkers were personified by the ram; the poster, by showing the ram as the focal point of the attentions of several women, suggested that Young's drinkers were more likely to be the target for seduction. We concluded that the poster linked the image of an alcohol brand with seduction and was therefore in breach of the Code. We told Young's to withdraw the poster and to adopt an approach, in future, which did not link the product with seduction.

Two comments:

1. I am amazed that these guys managed to run an empire.

2. I think they have to reconsider the question of the ram as being sexually successful. One of Young's competitors have a beer called Sheepshaggers Gold, so I am not sure that goats and rams are totally safe, either.

And my sincere apologies for not having the swimming pool ad. You have to make do with this for the time being.

As English as the queen, I would say

The pub industry have reacted with outrage after pubs and real ale were left off a government-funded list of symbols deemed to represent England, according to the Publican.

Alice in Wonderland, the FA Cup and Routemasters have all been included in the list of a dozen icons which define English identity – but pubs and real ale are absent. The list was unveiled last week as part of the two-year Icons On-Line Project, which is encouraging the public to cast their own votes on a website.

The disgusted publicans have my full support. A pub or a pint should have made the icons list. And in my opinion they should have included the four mop tops from Liverpool, too. And the man with the sandwich board on Oxford Street proclaiming "Eat Less Meat".. Sorry, I'm getting carried away here!

Imperialism

If the beer in your hands features the word "imperial," you can expect more hops, more malt, more alcohol and more flavor. These supersized brews have become the hottest commodities in the specialty beer market.

These are the words of Greg Kitsock, who goes on to make a roll call of the best among the craft brewers in the US in his column in the Washington Post. (Free, but you have to register). I have to make up an excuse to cross the Atlantic soon. (An excuse in addition to the beer, that is!)

Crocodile tears

Representatives of the Norwegian brewing industry are crying in their beer in Aftenposten this morning. They feel that their livelihood is threatened by smuggling, caused by lower beer taxes in our neighbouring countries. The volume of beer confiscated by Norwegian customs last year was five times higher than in 2000.There are several issues here. First of all, the Norwegian brewing industry, which has a virtual monopoly, is interested in lowering the taxes in order to get a higher profit. This should surprise nobody. We should not be surprised that they will go on axing jobs and making their breweries more efficient, either. All this whining about the need to lower the taxes to save jobs in the industry means nothing when the board of directors of Carlsberg do their strategic planning. There is no crisis in the industry that is not of its own making. They are brewing more of their bland pilsners than ever before, and if the profit margin is low on some products, it is because of their own price war.

As for the smuggling, a five-fold increase in the volume confiscated does not mean we smuggle five times as much. What has actually happened is that people have stopped smuggling hard liquor. This market dried up when several persons died of methanol poisoning after drinking smuggled vodka a few years ago. The volume of beer - in litres - confiscated last year is similar to the number of litres of hard liquor confiscated in 2001. Instead of raising this as a problem, the authorities in charge should be pleased that people carry a few bottles of beer too many instead of a few bottles of whisky! The sensible thing to do is to liberalise the rules. The current quota for beer is 2 litres, which it has been since the Stone Age. I think most of us could live with a limit of ten litres. Or twenty, perhaps. And five litres of wine.

The beer taxes are generally far too high, but thisis a golden opportunity to set up a system that gives advantages to smaller brewers and give the consumers a more to choose from. The British beer tax has a sliding scale, which means that the smallest brewers pay less tax per litre (or pint) than the big ones. I believe other counties, among them, have similar systems.  But with the current government, I am afraid the trade unions of the old breweries have more weight than the possibility of creating something new.

Warm beer

A state senator from Missouri wants to stop stores from selling cold beer. If Senator Bill Alter (I suppose this is his only shot at world fame) get his way, grocery stores and convenience stores would risk losing their licence if they sell beer colder than 60 degrees. Fahrenheit, that is. Why he chose 60 degrees is a bit puzzling, as the King of Beers (no, I won't link to them)and similar delights are not drinkable above 40 degrees.

I doubt if this will catch on internationally. I know of an island nation where they keep drinking warm beer, and I expect them to continue doing so during my lifetime. And as for Norway, there are just a few glorious weeks of summer when the outside temperature rises above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. What would he want us to do? Heat the beer before it is sold? With a poke like the Belgians?

Today I really deserved a beer...

January can be tough here in Oslo , if the weather turns nasty. If it starts raining, it is pitch dark all day long, and the hospitals fill up with people with broken hips. On the other hand, it can be really nice. Not necessarily in the city streets, but there are other things to do without leaving the boundaries of the municipality.

This morning I filled thermos flasks with blackberry toddy and coffee, made a stack of sandwiches and walked down to the train station with my nine year old son and his mate. Within half an hour we were skiing in the forest. Not downhill, but cross-country. Oslo is one of the few capitals of the world where there really is space to enjoy nature almost at your doorstep.

Some steep climbing to start with made us nice and warm. The temperature was quite all right, about minus 2 Centigrade, which made for perfect conditions. Fresh snow during the week created an enchanted forest - you don't have to go to New Zealand to find magic spots!  

Five hours and 20 kilometres later it is dusk, and we board a bus to take us home again. And Dad is really thirsty for a beer. What about a can of Smithfield bitter? This own brand bitter is sold by Marks and Spencer, and while real ale purists will point out that this is sterilized and canned dead ale, I rather enjoy it. It has a very nice hoppy character, and I would not mind having a six-pack of these around for when I come home after a day of skiing or other physical activity. It sure beats most lagers available. And it is sold at a decent price, too. Sadly the nearest outlet to here is at Heathrow Terminal 3!

Not saving the world anymore

Years before blogging I had another form of soap box - I wrote letters to the editor. To the letter columns of local papers, regional papers and national papers. The issues ranged from local transport (tram vs bus) and how to survive with or without the nuclear deterrent. We were a bunch of young idealists who though we were sent here to save the world. But somehow the dreary routines of wage slavery, dirty diapers and mortgages crept upon us. And we left the world to its own devices. It has miraculously survived without us.

 I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.

I had a letter to the editor printed this morning, in the weekly magazine supplement of quality broadsheet turned tabloid Aftenposten. About the need for further European  integration in the wake of the referendum on the  constitution? Nope. About the Minister of Finance’s call for a boycott of Israeli products one day and her turnaround the next day? Nix. About beer, naturally. They had an article the other week about the Christmas brew at Ringnes, the national Carlsberg affiliate, describing in rosy terms how daring they were to add a drop of vanilla in one of their beers.

I made two points in my letter - printed to the right, it is not available online:

1. It seems like their head brewer does not have the faintest idea of what the Reinheitsgebot is. (or was unable to express it to the journalist.)  

2. If they want to write interesting articles about beer, the micro brewery scene in (and in ) is the place to look, not to the monopolist.

 Disclaimer: The headline is not mine

Pitfield Beer Shop to close

Someone over at ratebeer.com reports that the Pitfield Beer Shop in London, probably the best beer shop I have ever visited, is to close when their lease is up in February. The same goes for their brewery next door. There is no information about this on their web site, and one can only hope that they either manage to stay on or are able to find other premises! More information, anyone?
