  • 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).

  • Brewers Toast the Return of Real Ale - FT.Com Page 1 of 1
    Brewers toast the return of real ale - FT.com Page 1 of 1 FINANCIAL TIMES September 4,20128:10 pm Brewers toast the return of real ale By Christopher Thompson On a weekday evening at the Rake in London's Borough Market the assembled drinkers - a mix of hipsters and suited local businessmen - are not supping Foster's, Stella Artois or any of the other mass market lager brands. Since opening in 2006, the Rake has only sold craft beers, of which it offers 130 different types. Despite typically charging more than £4 for a pint or a bottle, co-owner Richard Dinwoodie, 45, says the pub has registered year-on-year sales growth since it opened. "Our popularity is on the back of the foodie revolution, where people are more interested in taste ... we've also seen big growth in supplying restaurants and hotels, [some of whom] have beer menus and even a beer sommelier," he says. The Rake's success reflects a broader movement of beer drinkers towards cask ale and craft beers as Britain's overall beer market declines. In 2011 total beer sales were £17bn, of which ale accounted for £3.7bn, according to the British Beer and Pub Association. Last month Heineken, the maker of the eponymous lager and Kronenbourg brand, reported a fall in volumes in western Europe, including the UK, in the first half of 2012. It follows a long decline in UK lager sales, which have fallen by more than a fifth over the past five years. In contrast, cask ales sales have declined at less than half that rate, with many companies even registering sales increases.

  • Got Beer? Music in a Bottle
    Got Beer? Music in a Bottle I was sitting in Boneheads, a very cool rock ‘n’ roll themed wing bar in downtown West Warwick, when I spied an interesting bottle with a familiar image from an Iron Maiden album on the label. Naturally I had to give it a try. Music-themed beer is an interesting phenomenon. Many breweries honor the music they love, like with Abita’s Purple Haze or DFH’s Miles Davis Bitches Brew. I haven’t seen the Mmmhops American Pale Ale made by Hanson, though I hear it’s an okay enough beer. Lagunitas released a number of Frank Zappa- inspired brews a few years ago, which were actually quite good. Music and beer complement each other nicely, and with the right pairing of themes, the two can play well together. Several years ago, a collaboration of music and beer yielded The Trooper by Robinsons Brewery in the UK. Supposedly developed by vocalist Bruce Dickinson and based on the song of the same name, which is, in turn, based on The Charge of the Light Brigade, this brew has a lot of inspiration behind it. The Trooper is a pale ale, a nice English bitter, that falls on the lighter side with bittersweet malts, crisp hops and a rich copper color. To be honest, it’s about what I expected from the bottle. Maybe it’s me, but I would expect a beer named after a metal band to have a little more kick to it. It’s only 4.7%, so it’s very sessionable, but I expected something a little more hardcore.
