Sweet FA: The Fyne Ales Blog

Now the blog’s up and running, we find ourselves with little time to write anything for it! Such are the joys of being a small brewery at christmas.

Once the rush is over, we’ll start blogging properly and give you some insight who we all are, what we do and why we’re passionate about our beer. We genuinely hope that you’ll become a regular reader and friend.

Until then, treat yourself to a minicask of our limited edition Holly Daze from the online shop and enjoy some festive cheer.

I want to share a difficulty that we have in brewing a new beer. Given that every one’s tastes are different how do we design our beers’ tastes for maximum enjoyment by the majority?

So I would like to start with your views on how our beers taste - comments please. I’ll leave this post on top for a while.

Clues: we use the same hops in all our cask conditioned real ales for bittering. We think that you will be able to discern a common taste in our “Uncomonly Fine Ales”.

We brewed a new beer (5*5) and the first comment we got was very encouraging:

Dear Jonny, Tuggy and gang, Sampled the 5:5 in the Village Inn last night and am going back to drink the rest of it tonight. Congratulations on creating a fantastic pint.

If you want to leave a comment, just drop us an email or add it to the post.
