Message tommann P beers 7123 º places 33 º 05:16 Sun 7/21/2013 I know 4 of the 6 I got from there. The cream ale was a while back though.

Message Gazza beers 727 º places 167 º 07:25 Sun 7/21/2013 Cream Ale - Don’t bother, rubbish. Lambic Style - Faro - Girardin bottle theirs but it’s shit. You need to have it on draught in Belgium. Polotmavý - hard to get here, go to Praha, plenty there (but don’t confuse with rezané as they’re very different things) Sahti/Gotlandsdricke/ - go to Finland. Scottish Ale - doesn’t exist. Zwickel/Keller/Landbier - go to Franconia.
Message Sigmund beers 13313 º places 446 º 07:45 Sun 7/21/2013 Polotmavý isn’t really a style, it is the same as Vienna / Amber Lager, only brewed in the Czech Republic. The admins must have been drunk.

I don’t agree - the ones I’ve had have been a lot sweeter and more malty than the very thin Viennas and suchlike I’ve had, as you’d expect from a Czech beer. Now Granat - that’s more like a Vienna.

Message Sigmund beers 13313 º places 446 º 09:55 Sun 7/21/2013 Originally posted by Gazza Now Granat - that’s more like a Vienna. Some people seem to disagree with you: http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/herold-granat-polotmave-specialni/46988/ When beers are grouped into "styles", it does not mean that all beers within a "style" do - or should - taste exactly the same. Sometimes it seems necessary to remind some American BJCP-fanatics about this.
Message RichardW beers 1813 º places 45 º 10:23 Sun 7/21/2013 Had some KaiserBrau Veldensteiner Landbier from beers of Europe in the last month or two. Scored a 3.8, really enjoyed it.
Message RichardW beers 1813 º places 45 º 10:34 Sun 7/21/2013 And for Scotch Ale, Founders tend to be on beermerchants and alesbymail and Dirty Bastard has been available in recent times.
