Closed- Official Hart & Thistle Thread

I half-thought about going across the pond JUST for this. Can't do it, though. But if anyone want to bottle some of Nash's goodies for me...
Even just seal 'em in a bottle, put 'em in a plastic bag, write my address on it, and throw it in the ocean?

[Jimmy]

Anyone going down tonight?

[derek]

Oh, yeah! I'm not 29, in fact closer to twice that, so I have to get permission from the management committee to attend something like this, but I have managed. I'll be there - apparently it's advance payment for the work I'll be doing Sunday and Monday.

[NASH]

Excellent! Glad to hear you guys are coming out

I'll also be tapping my wet-hop brew made with the french-speaking hops from QC [ ], which is actually a west coast Red Ale

Les Grenouilles! (I had French for 12 of my 13 years of school - no, I went to school in Ontario, they didn't hold me back a year - and "Grenouilles" is about all I learned...)

[TimG]

So who else is heading down Saturday afternoon/evening?

Nash, the hop sausage coming out early or later? Just wondering if I should plan to be down there right at 2pm (and have to bail out a bit earlier) or plan for 4ish (gotta be there by 5 for Messie!) and stay later.. don't want to miss the hop sausage though!

[GAM]

I hope to have a small group and may be there for 2:00 as well.

The hop sausage and all the other beer/food stuffs will be available from 2pm onward, they made lots of everything so I don't think it'll run out but I was wrong one other time

Sweet!

[chalmers]

I'll be heading down, not sure what time. Certainly there for Messie.

Edit: Besides Messie, will all of the beers be on starting at 2, or will they come on as another keg is blown?

[mr x]

I'm going to head down for 2ish, hang around for a few hours. Shall bring TimG's C15.

[KMcK]

With tomorrow's forecast I'll be definitely going down for patio hours.

[Jimmy]

Sounds like it will be a good turnout. I'll be down for 2ish as well

Any chance you could bring my umbrella? Thanks

[mr x]

Yes, i will definitely do that. Do me a favour, and send me a text around lunchtime to remind me.

Random brews will be tapped as another runs out. We'll only be using one of the taps for the extra goodness

[JohnnyMac]

I'll be there for a bit around 2ish.

[Tim Gregory]

I'm thinking of heading over around 3-4:00

[KMcK]

This summer's weather has made you quite the pessimist.

And after all that, I forgot it down there... Sigh... Too many of Nash's yummy beers!

[mr x]

You're joking? lmfao

All I can taste is hops.

I was wondering why the hell someone gave me an umbrella for my birthday!

[chalmers]

I grabbed it Tuesday.

Just got a posting on the MoB site and thought I'd share it with you.

I was in Halifax last week for a couple of days and had time to go to Hart
and Thistle and sample some of Nash's beer. I tried his RIS, Shwartz porter,
and the Irreverence Harvest ale. I was curious if anyone else had tried the
Harvest ale as I think it was one of the best beers I have ever had. The
other beer was also great but I can't get the Irreverence of my mind.
Besides the beer I thought that the food was top notch as well.


Good job Nash.

Thanks for posting Tony, glad to hear whomever it was enjoyed the beers! Irreverence has a nice little fresh hop nose and flavour and some big malt-balls but not as planned planned since I was shorted 12 kgs on the fresh hops. I think a lot of folks were expecting a giant hop-bomb which it's not, by comparison to what I 'usually' brew at least. The dead silence after the first sips when a full round was delivered to my table at my birthday was fucking hilarious, I guess folks don't want me telling them to go fuck themselves
