Belgium's brew shows its wild side

Article Abstract:

Sainsbury's Belgian Ale is a wine-like, sparkling beer made in Lembeek, near Brussels, Belgium, where it is known as Gueuze. The dry, sweet and sour flavour comes from using unmalted wheat and wild yeasts. Three-year old hops are used as a preservative. Multiple fermentations in sherry casks create flavour. A young Lambik contains residual sugars, so when blended with a three-year old beer a sparkling Gueuze is produced. Fruit versions are also available.

Long may the Speckled Hen range free

Article Abstract:

Old Speckled Hen is an ale created to celebrate the half-century of the MG car factory in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, England. One year later the factory closed but Old Speckled Hen remained as a bottled beer until Morland's decided to market stronger, premium-priced ales for a mature market in 1990. The dry ale has an original gravity of 1050 and uses two strains of yeast. Morland's brewery has existed since 1711.
