Bought a bottle from Tucker’s Maltings, Newton Abbot, during the SIBA shindig on 20 April. Opened it a week later and supped it along with a big lump of Stilton. Now I know what heaven is like.

I’m familiar with some of these guys. They sometimes drink in the bar in work in, which I won’t mention for obvious reasons. They are always far more interested in our suppliers, margins etc than actually worrying about the best beers to source for themselves and sell at a price that suits both them and their customers. Horrible, cash-in. I hope this venture dies on its arse.

[...] Bloed Zweet & Tranen: The standard Bloed, Zweet en Tranen (Blood Sweat and Tears) is a beer inspired by Bamberg smoked lagers, but upped in alcohol and with the addition of English peated malt to the Franconian smoked stuff. This variant is the result of an incident in which Scottish peated malt intended for Bruichladdich whisky got into the mash tun by mistake. (courtesy of Beer Culture with Des De Moore) [...]

I’ve heard that story too, Laurent, but it’s always struck me as one of those beer stories that’s rather too simplistic and unlikely to be entirely true. According to Raymond Duyck, as told to Gabriel Thierry in Sur la route des bières du Nord-Pas-de-Calais, the Duyck brewery launched Jenlain in 1968, based on an interwar recipe, in response to the evident popularity of Belgian beers like Chimay and Duvel in that part of France at the time. Clearly it was something they could do that the big lager brewers couldn’t. Jenlain was test marketed at a shop close to the Université Catholique de Lille which explains its association with students. The other well known brands from old established brewers seem to have emerged in the decades following — for example St Sylvestre revived warm fermentation with 3 Monts in 1984 because “the market was difficult” for the litre bottles of lager they’d been producing up to then.
