That Little Creatures brewpub is now under new ownership (the people who bought Fourpure a d Magic Rock) and has reopened under a new name.
The brewery there is currently not operating. If it does reopen it’ll be under different ownership so presumably Little Creatures Regents Canal should be closed:
Personally a 1% (total) ABV shift in a pils wouldn’t get me adding a new beer to the database.
If another admin wants to add a very similar beer i wont be losing sleep.
More about recipe shift for me … maybe email the brewer and ask them if they see it as a different beer ?
I agree with Cloin, a reduction of 1pc point isn’t all that significant. The brewery is selling cans of this on their webshop with the same description and branding as before and I couldn’t see anything announced on their socials about it being different in any way. Unless confirmed to be a recipe change I’d rather just edit the ABV and add a note in the description “previously seen at 5% ABV” or whatever.
These appear to be the same beer and need merging (only difference is that the second one has been entered with the name spelled incorrectly, so the first one is the one to keep): https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/laine-doubloon/473248/
Brunswick Brrewery in Derby use the name “Engine shed Project” for their experimental beers. There was already one beer listed under this name, and I have just added another. However, rhere are quite a few other beers we have listed that should be Engine Shed Project ones. The following beers need to have their names changed
Fixed these and added The Ghan as that was recent, but Antipodean was on Aug 2018 by their facebook page and doubt anyone had it if it’s not been added now.
There a few others that were never added like this:
I asked the brewers (on Facebook) for an official description of this beer https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/four-priests-moston-dragon/1054947/
and this is their response
“Brewed with Finest Maris Otter malt and hopped with East Kent Golding, Fuggle and Styrian Golding hops. Moston Dragon is a flavoursome and sessionable best bitter and our second ever beer”
One to watch our for Admins in case someone adds this brewery.
I bought an AF West Coast IPA from Flying Pigs Brewing Co. Was going to add the brewery and noticed that this is the new name for a drinks producer called Shrb. I’ll therefore refrain from adding the brewery and drink because their drinks are not fermented. Instead the hops, etc, are just added to apple vinegar so they are unratable. They specify that they are unfermented.
Grasshopper Brewery have now been revived as a subsidiary to Backyard Brewhouse. I had one of their cask beers at Head of Steam, Birmingham a few weeks ago. I took a brief look at their facebook page and in September they were getting their site up and working again (I assume at Langley Mill still).
