Half time scores
It's three months since the most recent JD Wetherspoon beer festival , and three months to go until the next one. I thought this would be an opportune moment to have a look at what's been new (to me) in the Dublin branches. Moorhouse is a regular at the chain and Pendle Witches Brew is a beer I've certainly heard of, but was surprised to find I'd never drank. "Strong ale" is something of a rare style, although this is down at the bottom end of it — 5.1% ABV — where it could equally be badged as a hefty bitter. The golden brown colour adds to that initial impression of twigginess, likewise its slightly soapy aroma. The flavour is altogether more light and breezy, presenting a fruity mix of currants and cherries, on a medium-dry malt base with a tannic bite. Think tea brack, but with some English hops adding an earthy bitterness to the finish. And while it may not be by-the-numbers strong, it presents a fullness and warmth which makes the description valid. It took me most of the p

Lux Row Distillers Small Batch Bourbon finished in PX Sherry casks brings huge grape, wine, and sherry notes… but did the finish overpower the bourbon itself?

Hiatus Beers Non Alcoholic Pale Ale
These Hiatus Non Alcohol beers are the business! One of three in the range, this Pale Ale is an excellent alternative to the fully leaded versions in the marketplace. Full-flavoured, it delivers more than its alcohol-free status suggests. Jules Ryan is at the helm. With some serious brewing knowledge and experience after stints at Stone & Wood, Balter and Little Creatures, he saw a hole in the market that he has filled admirably with his Hiatus beers. Fine malt characters from SM40 and Voyager provide a more than respectable foundation while a blend of El Dorado, Amarillo and Cascade hops brings a swathe of vibrant tropical and citrus aromas. Full-flavoured with hints of guava and tropical fruits, a balanced bitterness keeps everything in check before a clean and crisp finish invites another sip. What I find most appealing is that this Pale Ale does not rely on sweetness to build the flavour profile, rather delivering a beer that is fresh, balanced and tastes exactly how a P

Vin Sol Ignis Tempranillo 2024
We've got a smart McLaren Vale Tempranillo here courtesy of Vin Sol. Admittedly, it looked better after it had some time to breathe, so give it that chance to shine. An array of dark berry fruits greets you, but I'm all here for the cola, cured meats and blackberry jubes. Dried herbs add detail with a sheet of fine exotic spices, but you'll see it move into fifth gear beside tomato-based pizza and pasta dishes. A big thumbs up from me. 91/100 Region: McLaren Vale RRP: $27 Source: Sample Winery Website Subscribe to Qwine here Follow: Instagram , LinkedIn and X
