British Bitter: Style series
Manage episode 397647660 series 2954799
We’re kicking off 2024 with a not-so-deep dive into the world of British Bitters; what they are, why they’re different (or not…) to adjacent styles and we tackle perceptions of them. Sadly, they’re not widely available in Ireland. We talk about how different the beer and pub culture are between us and our neighbours, the UK, and this includes Bitter and cask beers in general.
What we’re drinking:
- Eight Degrees Brewing - Sunburnt Irish Red Ale
- Ballykilcavan - Brickyard Red
Links:
- Bitter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_(beer)
- BJCP guidelines on Bitter: https://www.bjcp.org/style/2021/11/
- When did ‘bitter’ become the beer style that dare not speak it’s name: https://zythophile.co.uk/2019/04/09/when-did-bitter-become-the-beer-style-that-dare-not-speak-its-name/
- How one Irishman’s ginger beard helped launch an entirely bogus style of beer: https://zythophile.co.uk/2021/08/25/how-one-irishmans-ginger-beard-helped-launch-an-entirely-bogus-style-of-beer/
