  • Handout-It Tastes Horsey, Bready, and Fruity: Aspects of Beer Talk
    “It tastes horsey, bready, and fruity: Analyzing aspects of beer talk” 65. Studentische Tagung Sprachwissenschaften, Köln Kerstin Stolten [email protected] Universität Bayreuth Examples of Beer Descriptions Below you can find some examples for what I call beer talk, which has some similar structural elements with oinoglossia (Silverstein 2003). Example 1: American Barley Wine American barley wine ranges from amber to deep red/copper-garnet in color. A caramel and/or toffee aroma and flavor are often part of the malt character along with high residual malty sweetness. Complexity of alcohols is evident. Fruity-ester character is often high. As with many American versions of a style, this barley wine ale is typically more hop-forward and bitter than its U.K. counterpart. Low levels of age-induced oxidation can harmonize with other flavors and enhance the overall experience. Sometimes sold as vintage releases. Example 2: Specialty Beer Ingredients used in the specialty beer style should be distinctive and evident in either the aroma, flavor or overall balance of the beer. This style category is a catch-all. Any specialty beer that does not fit other specialty beer styles would be appropriately considered here. Examples can include sahti, steinbier, white IPA, session IPA and more. Example 3: Belgian-style Witbier Belgian-style witbier is brewed using unmalted wheat, sometimes oats and malted barley. Witbiers are spiced with coriander and orange peel. A style that dates back hundreds of years, it fell into relative obscurity until it was revived by Belgian brewer Pierre Celis in the 1960s. This style is currently enjoying a renaissance, especially in the American market.

  • Real Ale Experience a Guide to Some of the Much Loved Real Ale Pubs in North Shields and Tynemouth
    Real Ale Experience A guide to some of the much loved real ale pubs in North Shields and Tynemouth EDUCATION AND CULTURAL SERVICES Real Ale Experie With traditional pubs offering unrivalled hospitality, each with their own intriguing stories to tell, the Real Ale Experience is a trip for the connoisseur of beers and those who enjoy their inns and taverns with character. The town centre pubs, bustling with charm, have been a focal point of North Shields for centuries, playing a role in the development of the town. Tynemouth has a mix of old and new pubs, providing a fine choice of venues and The Fish Quay, the traditional trading and commercial heart of the town, offers a unique experience where the locals are larger than life and seem more like characters from a seafaring novel. So…prepare to taste the experience for yourself. The Magnesia Bank Camden Street, North Shields The Magnesia Bank stands high on the bank side overlooking the nce historic fish quay and it is worth pausing at the railings at the bottom of Howard Street and enjoying the views of the river before imbibing. The building to the right, marked with a blue plaque, is Maritime Chambers, once the home of the Stag Line and, before that, the Tynemouth Literary and Philosophical Society’s library. The pub itself, originally a Georgian commercial bank, opened in 1989 and quickly established a reputation as a real ale pub, a reputation certainly justified in the number of awards it has won. The pub has developed a worldwide standing for its real ales and proudly serves cask ales in the best condition, a fact acknowledged by the many awards received from the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

    Saturday – March 2, 2019 1:00-5:00pm & 6:00-10:00pm Bottom Lounge 1375 W Lake Street – Chicago Vote for the Champion Beers of Chicagoland! Check out CBS swag and cast your ballot … Winners announced at 9:00 PM 2 Please respect your fellow attendees and sample responsibly. Be aware of the beer’s alcohol content by volume (abv). Inebriation will not be ​ ​ tolerated – you will be cut off and asked to leave. Real ale, living ale, and cask ale all refer to beer that has been naturally ​ carbonated by yeast still in the cask (or bottle) without any added C02. The yeast that fermented your beer have been working at what they do best until days - or perhaps even less - prior to tasting your beer today. Beer that has not quite finished fermenting is added to a cask where the yeast completes its mission and produces a gentle stream of natural carbonation. Finings, which attract yeast like a beer geek to a barleywine, are also added to the cask, and draw the yeast to the bottom when their job is finally complete. For this reason, casks sit in stillage for up to a week prior to serving, so as not to upset the contents. When you see a cellarman artfully tilt a cask during the event, this is to ensure these remnants remain on the bottom. All this magic works best at cellar temperature - about 52-54F. So, while you may be a bit chilly, rest assured that your beer is lounging in absolute comfort. Great real ale is bright with a gentle carbonation served at cellar temperature, but this is affected by the condition of the beer put into the cask, when the brewery filled the cask, and when the cask was delivered.

  • The Wesleyan Reform Movement in Derbyshire
    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: E. ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume 52 May1999 "BY SCHISMS RENT ASUNDER": THE WESLEYAN REFORM MOVEMENT IN DERBYSHIRE . ... such is the state of anarchy and disruption in which we found the circuit, we have not been able to take account of who are members and who are not, so that for the last quarter the Schedule Book is a blank. With the exception of one or two only of the congregations, all the congregation in the circuit are the most disorderly riotous assemblies of wild beasts: and the pulpits regularly the spit of contention between the authorised local preachers, and those patronised by the mob ... I do not think it right to be any further a party to the desecration of all that is sacred on God's day, by contending with infuriated men, some of whom have, again and again, squared their fists in my face in regular pugilistic style and all but struck me in the performance of this necessary duty.1 uch was the state of the Ilkeston Wesleyan Circuit in Derbyshire, as described by Rev. Alexander Hume in a letter to John Beecham, the SPresident of the Wesleyan Conference, dated November 5, 1850. There had been rumblings of disaffection in the lower reaches of the Wesleyan Connexion for some time. It was felt by some, particularly by those living in the provinces, that the W esleyan ministers were becoming too remote from their flocks and neglecting their pastoral duties. Allied to this was the undoubted suspicion held that the Connexion was in the hands of a metropolitan clique ruled by Dr.
