| I'm getting a bit sick of the hipster b*llocks surrounding beer at the moment and this place is a prime example of its all-pervasive influence. The Beerd name, its beard logo and the bearded so-called "individuals" (you know the types....) who work for places like this get right on my nerves. This was an ale house run by Bath Ales called the Grapes the last time I was in Oxford and now it's a logo'd, overpriced, hipstered-to-the-max load of the proverbial. For some reason two-third pint measures of beer are dispensed on beers from the taps. I would understand if they were high OG/ABV ones, but many of them were in the 3.5-5% ranges and just quite plain and ordinary when put up against others that are around right now. For me to pay the inflated prices for these tapped beers I'd want big, bold, punchy, experimental, boundary-pushing, genre-mashing beers at higher percentages. Just whacking them into a keg and calling them "craft" doesn't mean they're good. The Americans are doing it waaay better than us and the UK ones I tried here the other day were just not cutting it. Didn't realise I was quite so angry about this. Thank you for letting me vent my spleen. littledrummerboy - 14 Mar 2016 15:27 |
