Cellar Beer Tasting 2011 With Kieran Haslett-Moore

Review Date: 28-Oct-2011
This September saw me hosting a tasting of vintage beers from the Regional Beer Cellar. While most beers are designed to be drunk fresh, a few beers can gain in complexity and character. More...

Michael Jackson Memorial Beer And Food Tasting 2011

Review Date: 08-Sep-2011
This year Regional teamed up with the talented kitchen from The Hop Garden to recreate some of the food and beer matches that Michael wrote about during his life. We started the tasting with an aperitif in the form of Cantillon Lou Pepe Framboise served in champagne flutes More...

Belgian Tasting 2011 Results

Review Date: 28-Jun-2011
This year the popular vote went to Duchesse de Bourgogne from West Flanders. Duchesse de Bourgogne is a West Flanders Sour Red Ale whose production includes some very unique processes.

5Th Annual Regional Beer And Cheese Tasting

Review Date: 10-May-2011
To keep things fresh I decided to have a crack at doing a fondue course which added an element of fun and spectacle. As with past years those attending the tastings were able to vote at the end for their favourite beer, their favourite cheese and their favourite match. More...

Yeastie Boys Rex Attitude

Review Date: 03-May-2011
“a light golden colour and positively broadcasting an aroma of heathery smoked kippers. In the mouth the beer was incredibly balanced with light fruity hops, massive smoke and sweet rich malt all playing their part before a rounded wonderfully complex finish.” More...

Playing Favourites With Moa’S Dave Nicholls

Back in October 2010 we ran a highly successful ‘Playing Favourites with the Yeastie Boys’ tasting where the men behind the Yeastie Boys presented both some of their own beers along with a range of beers that had influenced them through the years. With a backdrop of some big changes at Marlborough’s Moa Brewery we thought it would good to invite head brewer Dave Nicholls along to present his Favourites More...

Beer And Food: The Ambeli

Review Date: 21-Mar-2011
On my visit we tried charcuterie, chilled almond soup, and smoked paprika ceviche with warm marinated olives accompanied by a glass of the extravagantly hopped 8 Wired Hopwired IPA. The grapefruit laced hop bite of the IPA cut through the fat of the fennel sausage while the tropical fruit notes of the beer gave the cerviche a burst of zesty freshness. More...

The 2010 Emerson’S Beer Options

Review Date: 15-Dec-2010
The field was pretty tight for the first half with last years champions The All Saaz, twice former champions White Rino and a new team of old pros The Number Ones leading the pack. At half time The Number Ones were leading with The All Saaz and White Rino nipping at their heals. More...

Beer And Food: Logan Brown Raises The Standard

Review Date: 13-Dec-2010
I think its great that top restaurants are starting to show the same care for their beer lists as they have traditionally shown to their wine lists, More...

Hops Across The Pacific

Review Date: 15-Nov-2010
Harvest ales are big in America. On the periphery of Americas west coast hop fields brewers seize the opportunity to pack the zesty pithy resinous character of green hops into their beers. More...
