The story goes that one of the original brewers in York used to tie his pet dog alongside the mash Tun. It remained loyal to him until through old age the dog died. The brewer believed his dog’s spirit lived on and developed a mischievous and characterful presence. Yorkshire Terrier continues the story and it’s lively character reflects all that is good in man’s best friend.
My latest venture homemade beer venture is a another from the Woodefordes stable, this time the Great Eastern Ale. Great Eastern is billed as being ‘a delicious, full flavoured, golden ale made with a blend of quality pale and lager malts.’ Originally brewed by Woodforde’s to commemorate 150 years of The Great Eastern Railway in Norfolk.
Now I’ve only just bottled this brew, but I think sampling the beer straight out the bin gives a good idea of what the finished beer will taste like. This one as it says on the tin is tastes quite a light beer, with a hoppy character but still is quite malty. I think it will make a great summer beer out in the garden with a BBQ, it’s not too strong so you won’t get wobbling leg syndrome too quickly.
