time to play the "can you name this style by the pictures" game.

[jjw5015]

Something from near you? i.e. Troegs or Weyerbacher

 

[MrFeltimo]

No its not,
Good question, this is a beer from the Motherland.
You would be hard pressed to get it over here in the states, but i think you might be able to find it.
This will be a Google exercise for you all.

I will give a riddle once the style has been quessed.

 

[Dave37]

Is it a pour from one of those monstrous 51 oz baltika bottles?

 

[MrFeltimo]

Is it a pour from one of those monstrous 51 oz baltika bottles?

No, standard Imperial Pint

 

[drummerguy]

Is it a Vienna lager?

 

[MrFeltimo]

Not a Vienna Lager

 

[TooDogly]

Is it a Tripel?

 

[MrFeltimo]

No, not a triple.

 

[TooDogly]

Gotta be a Marzen then, being the proper month and all.

 

[sudbuddy]

Marzen is from the Fatherland, not the Motherland so I'm guessing it's English or Russian. Not much beer from Russia, so probably English. Hook Norton ESB? Brakspear Bitter?

Oh Sudbuddy,
Give your self a pat on the back, but not to hard mind you.
Your guesses were solid, with a nice golden hue.
Try again.

Greene King IPA? or perhaps Ruddles County?

 

[sudbuddy]

actually I retract the IPA guess, but I'm sticking with Greene King as the brewery. I guess I need to look a little deeper into their lineup

 

[MrFeltimo]

Keep looking but take a step back.

 

[chocotaco]

Wychwood Goliath

 

[MrFeltimo]

Not wychwood but I'm sure they are getting a cut.

 

[sudbuddy]

Not wychwood but I'm sure they are getting a cut.

Then it MUST be Brakspear. Oxford Gold?

 

[MrFeltimo]

Then it MUST be Brakspear. Oxford Gold?

There you go,
I was recently on a trip back home and was craving for it, rather disappointing to be honest.View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1427925883.540993.jpg
Well done Sudbuddy, your up.

 

[sudbuddy]

Alright, here goes. 20 questions then a riddle. Beer and brewery please. Good luck!

[MrFeltimo]

Kolsch?

 

[sudbuddy]

Kolsch?

very good. I was hoping that would be harder, but there are still a lot of Kolsch's to choose from

 

[MrFeltimo]

Local to you?

 

[sudbuddy]

yes, fairly local

 

[MrFeltimo]

Major brewery?

 

[sudbuddy]

nope

 

[MrFeltimo]

Adjust?

 

[MrFeltimo]

That was supposed to be adjunt.

 

[sudbuddy]

guess again. Never heard of them BTW, where are they out of?

 

[MrFeltimo]

I was thinking more along the lines of adjunct as in additive of some type, fruit, spice, you know.
Apologies for my spell check and fat fingers.

 

[sudbuddy]

I thought that might be the case, I was just busting your b@lls. No adjuncts that I know of, but they aren't too forthcoming on the label recipe-wise

 

[chocotaco]

Fin du Monde

 

[sudbuddy]

Not even close

 

[sudbuddy]

We've established that it's a kölsch, it's brewed somewhat near to me, and it's not brewed by a major microbrewery. Fin du Monde doesn't meet any of that criteria

Heh, sorry I was on my iPad and was missing several pages of information.

 

[chocotaco]

I'll try Schlafly Kolsch. Better guess?

 

[MrFeltimo]

Krankshaft Kolsch
Metropolitan Brewing Co?

 

[sudbuddy]

Krankshaft Kolsch
Metropolitan Brewing Co?

Ding ding ding! We have a winner
