TOPIC:

It's a lot more tart than sweet, but it's not particularly tart either. It's not like a kriek or a framboise. It doesn't taste much of raspberry to be honest.

It is better warmer, as someone above has said, but certainly for my money it's not different enough, not what I'd've expected (not that I really know what I was expecting)

Had the Pale Ale this evening. Really enjoyed it. Could make a great session beer (though at €3.95 the session could be over quickly). Really liked the zesty finish.

Am having the Raspberry Grand Cru for desert shortly. Was planning on making a berry clafuotis (spelling) but am too full (of beer and food <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: --> )

The Pale Ale is the pick of the bunch for me.

Ohhh Cascade, thou art a cruel mistress...

I see realbeers.ie have got the Meantime IPA[/url:1zcrhk6l] in now at €35 for a case of twelve 330ml bottles. I hope I win that competition (didn't tell them where I live though <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->)!

Also found this nice site about the history of IPA[/url:1zcrhk6l]. Just in case this hasn't been posted before

That's the Pale Ale. The IPA[/url:2zioyc8q] only comes in 75cl and is €94 for 12, which is a pretty good price.

Oops! My apologies. I haven't seen either Pale Ale or IPA for so long now, I can't tell the difference! <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: -->
