Ale Tales

The ale keeps coming... We can't stop, we simply will not stop; these episodes are coming thick and fast. This month the lovely folks over at Haacht Brewery were kind enough to send us a box of beers to sample; and sample them we did. There's the usual mix of Ben chatting nonsense about Liverpool and sneezing into the microphone for no good reason and Dan pretending he's cultured by mentioning the countries he's visited. Beers supped: Wild-card - Northern Monk's "Shaun of the Death", Strawberry cornetto imperial stout, 11%. Tongerlo Brown, Abbey Brown beer, 6.5% Super 8 Flandrien, Blonde, 6.4% Primus, Lager, 5.2% Super 8 IPA, Belgian IPA, 6% Send us your thoughts and feelings to aletalespodcast@gmail.com Find out more at https://ale-tales.pinecast.co

Lush | Luscious Pale Ale | ABV 4.2%  Tango Till They're Sore | Amarillo Wheat IPA | ABV 7.0% Crying The Neck | Wheat DIPA (Verdant Brew Co. Collab.) | ABV 8.0% As well as reviewing this tasty line-up, the boys discuss a sprinkling of beer news stories and there's the all-important Ben Bingo/Dan Dingo game to win (with a booby prize for the loser...)
