This week will see the beginning of a new lease of life for this blog. I've been ashamedly quiet on the writing front of late, simply because I haven't had anything all that exciting to write about. I was planning on doing a big beer blowout post from tasting notes I've been collecting over the last month or so, but instead I had a moment of inspiration (i.e. totally nicked the idea off a customer) - to complete a beer alphabet!
'B' is for...
So, starting now, for the next 26 weeks (week three, C, conveniently lands on Christmas…) I will be taking you through two or three beers a week according to the most beautiful human creation there is, the English alphabet. After all, who needs SatNav when you've got an A to Z of Beer?!
I was going to go by name, but that becomes a slight issue when you think about Trappist ales (some of which I will be including), so I'll make a few exceptions for brewery names :-)
Good idea about contributions too. Do you mean in a kind of 'Session' format, or people send me tasting notes and I put them on my blog?
I reckon like a session, though you could link in on your blog too, that way people can find your blog and other blogs too. May be more work than you were planning? I reckon it could work well I'd definitely join in!
are you going by brewer or beer name? Perhaps this is something you could make bigger than one blog and ask eevryone to contribute a beer per letter!
