Beer, revisited

I'd advise any moderne beer enthusiast resident in or passing through Sheffield to keep your eyes out for a new brewery called Saint Mars of the Desert. It's the latest venture by the owners of the now-defunct Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project, which they operated in Massachusetts prior to relocating (re-relocating, really) to Britain. If the brew they were turning out with Pretty Things is any indication, Saint Mars of the Desert will be a quality operation. Cheers!
I travel to Sheffield every couple of months so I will certainly give it a try.

A couple of offerings from the weekend:

Hyde’s - Lowry ( 4.7%)

Castle Rock - Elsie Mo (4.7%)

The Hyde’s was a bit bland tbh, but the Castle Rock was very good. Like a stong old fashioned pale ale, as opposed to an IPA.

Plus you don’t see many unPC beer pump clips around these days either !

Weird, Castle Rock changed that over a year ago

craft beer comes to Vietnam

as does the aesthetic - exposed brick, white tiles, long wooden tables etc

tastes like hops

everything everywhere is increasingly all the same

still, though it screams "Brooklyn/Shoreditch 2007" as loud as it can, and while it's no Beer Lao Dark, on all but the steamiest high noons it's a better choice than the dire identikit lagers that are 99% of Asian beer
