Brew Day and Tasting Notes: Summer Somewhere 2025 White Ale
Discontinued beers can be a funny thing. Sometimes they are romanticized by many. Sometimes they are remembered by a few. One beer a lot of friends my age miss that is otherwise forgotten about is Samuel Adams White Ale. Consider Sam makes numerous Belgian witbiers, I never understood why their original White Ale was discontinued and never brought back. Then after doing some research I found out that White Ale used TEN different spices and botanicals: orange and lemon peel, dried plum, grains of paradise, coriander, anise, hibiscus, rose hips, tamarind, and vanilla. That probably explains it then. With two other light, summer beers on, this would be the 2025 vintage of Summer Somewhere. I got the idea to clone White Ale when the beer was mentioned on a group text. I went as far as to offer to brew a 10-gallon batch and bottle condition half to share. I haven't had White Ale since at least 2010. I remember the beer tasting like Sam Summer , but with added orange and coriander. That was

Understanding Wine Notes and Tasting Terms
Let’s be honest: wine can sometimes sound a little overwhelming and over the top. If you’ve ever read a wine label or heard someone describe a wine as having “bright acidity with a long leather finish and notes of stone fruit,” you might have quietly nodded while wondering what exactly you’..

Fresh fish
Assuming a 12-month best-before, I drank these Lough Gill beers six days after they came off the canning line. It's not a metric I pay a whole lot of attention to, in fact I think the importance of freshness is massively overstated by a certain sort of beer geek who are marks for the breweries, but I thought I should mention it on the rare occasion it happens. "NEIPA" proclaims the headline on Nectaron Drift , even though its 4.5% ABV might boggle the minds of any visiting Vermonters. The "drift" means that Comet, El Dorado and Citra are also in the hop mix. It's a fairly standard beaten-egg yellow murk job, and there's a lovely spice aspect to the aroma: fresh grass and rocket leaves, to an almost peppercorn intensity. The flavour carries that right through without much change. I know Nectaron is from New Zealand, and their hops tend to have Germanic roots, but I've never encountered Nectaron tasting so Saaz-like. Isn't it supposed to be fruity? Regardless, it's lovely. The other hops

End of Month special! Too many wineries in California is the story that continues to dominate the headlines, alongside En Primeur coverage from Bordeaux. The best value Sauvignon Blancs of 2026 gets eyeballs while Mexico's push to shout down prohibitionists also makes one of the top stories of the week.

How to prepare your palate for tasting
Why does the same drink sometimes taste completely different from one day to the next? It might seem like the wine, beer or spirit has changed but more often, it’s your senses. Subtle shifts in your palate, your environment or even your level of hydration can affect how clearly you perceive aromas, flavours and texture. Tasting is central to any WSET qualification, but it’s also a skill that improves with awareness and preparation. By creating the right conditions for your senses, you give yourself the best chance of experiencing a drink as it truly is. Here’s how to prepare your palate for more accurate, confident tasting. Key considerations for preparing your palate Ensure you have a clean, neutral palate Before tasting, your palate should be as neutral as possible. Strong or lingering flavours can mask more delicate characteristics and distort balance. Before tasting, you should avoid: strongly flavoured foods toothpaste or mouthwash coffee, cigarettes or chewing gum In short, if it
