Sometimes I want to poke my nose in say something, especially when someone has said something really stupid, but I never do. Eavesdropping is just great fun.

I made a beer with 20% rye last year and it went down well. Was more of a session beer really. That Unrivaled does sound good! Merry New Year! :)

I've had Unrivaled many times as it was partly brewed by Christian from North Bar. Very nice it is but I was hoping for Racer 5 or some other ultra rare American on draft.

We thought it was really boring, sadly. This is the first time we've been convinced that rye beer can be as good as it sounds. Mark -- yes, definitely. When our livers have recovered from Christmas, we'll sort something out.
