Episode 104 – Hook Island Red

 

This week we dive into a bottle from the fine London brewery, Five Points Brewing – a red rye ale called Hook Island Red. We also take a few sips of something special that makes Mark’s lips a bit numb, yes folks we tackle Brewdog’s Sink The Bismark.

There’s a news section that makes Steve proud, we look forward to our new ‘Revisited’ spin off, preview season 7 and there’s a first time winner in the #prizelessprize

All this plus an interview  with Barry who manages a bar in Dublin’s Temple Bar about the growing Irish beer scene.

It’s Beer O’Clock!

This week we’re joined by Peter McKerry from Drunken Cinema to review the newly released Five Points Brewing Co’s IPA, now available from Ales By Mail.

There’s an interview with Doreen from Five Points, we chat with Peter about his blog and marvel at the majesticness of his beard.

This plus the return of the pips, news about the Crimbo Crawl, chatter and another stunning #PrizelessPrize.

It’s beerd o’clock!
