| dan j mrdanjones@hotmail.com - for MSN website has contact info for shows | Posted On 14-04-05 21:59:15 Subject: New beers at NBLC there are three in 500 ml bottles from england. 813743 Black Wych Stout 500 $3.65 813714 Fiddler's Elbow 500 $3.65 813742 Hobgoblin 500 $3.65 813740 Old Speckled Hen 500 $2.75 I know the North End has these three. I also saw another that comes in a can from another company perhaps. You can go to nbliquor.com and check those product numbers or just go to the new product listing to find out what stores have them. I am on the stout right now and the first two were great. I'll have to let you know about the stout. |
| thebunk Thebunk | Posted On 14-04-05 22:39:26 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC Cool! I have fallen in love with imports as of late. Kilkenny's is probably my fav of all the imports I have tried. i will try to track down these other ones for the weekend. |

I'm gonna head over to ratebeer now and look them up, I was just wondering what you folks thought of them. |

But at least thier site is still better off than the [url]http://www.nsliquor.ns.ca/[linkas]Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation[/ur] site, lol. |

Hooray for government imcompentence! |
| thebunk Thebunk | Posted On 15-04-05 19:44:12 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC I just picked up the first 3 listed in this thread though are saving them for tomorrow night. In the meantime, Kilkenny is huggy my throat with its warm, creamy head. |

| dan j mrdanjones@hotmail.com - for MSN website has contact info for shows | Posted On 15-04-05 19:46:21 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC i think i like the stout best. the stout was more like a porter than a stout but i was expecting that from the way it moved in the bottle and that it is also in a bottle with no contraption to thicken it up. |
| thebunk Thebunk | Posted On 15-04-05 19:49:10 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC Cannot wait to try them tomorrow while enjoying a nice BBQ. |
| The Unity Killer | Posted On 16-04-05 01:27:59 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC Well Edward, according to the back of the bottle, it's "full bodied & well balanced with a chocolate toffee malt flavor, moderate bitterness & a distinctive fruity character & ruby red glow." I just found it to be delicious. But then why take anyone's word for it, try it yourself. |
| dan j mrdanjones@hotmail.com - for MSN website has contact info for shows | Posted On 16-04-05 02:41:37 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC after having the red and the wheat tonight i am more a fan of them both than i was before. the wheat is actually quite good. i like them enough but if i lived in fredericton i'd probably buy local and buy picaroons - for some reason SJ does not sell picaroons in bottles. at 3.65 i think it gets up there a little too much in price compared to its competition. even at the same price i'd rather give jobs to someone in the maritimes to some bloke in england. |
| beaneater dan culberson | Posted On 16-04-05 20:06:17 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC Thanks very much for the heads-up, Dan. I consumed the Fiddler's Elbow with my lunch today, and I have both the Stout and the Hobgobblin waiting in the fridge. I found it to be an acceptable beverage, a little sharp, and the burnt/smokey finish was a bit overpowering. I've had Speckled Hen before as well and found it was again, acceptable, but not something I would eagerly seek out. I too wish Picaroons was carried here in SJ. Whenever I'm in Moncton I try to pick up a bottle or two. |

| The Hawk Mike Hawkins Extra Greasy Stank Groove | Posted On 17-04-05 21:52:22 Subject: RE: New beers at NBLC I'm with Beaneater as far as my review. I've already had the Black Wych Stout and am now sipping on a Fiddler's Elbow and neither has impressed me very much. They're both kind of harsh and I think just not brewed with very good ingredients. I've got a Hobgoblin in the refrigerator but I'm not real interested in opening it. Any takers? It's yours..... It's all kind of surprising given that they're not cheap beers - at $3.65 for a couple of cups (500 ml), you'd expect something better - like Picaroons for example.... |
