I think Brooklyn Brewery has lost its way. I went into their bar and never had one decent beer. Their 2% stout was woeful.View attachment 102805
Picked up in Lidl. Not good.

Went into a bottle shop in a not-so-affluent area, only went in for a homey and was looking at his stock of whiskey. Was amazed at the stock he carried. Indian whiskey from $2,000 a bottle! So had a big discussion with him about whiskey. (He is Indian so thought maybe he was having me on) Japanese whiskey from $10,000 a bottle! Plus all the different Scotch and Irish whiskey looking at all his stock it is a wonder he hasn't been turned over. I asked him in the area his premises was located how come so much stock, especially the Japanese whiskey? Online sales, one regular buyer buys the Japanese whiskey 3 bottles at a time!I was going to move on to strong Belgians but seeing @Alastair70 post I’ve changed my mind.

Reading the small print this bottle was brewed at the Carlsberg brewery in the UK, presumably using much the same recipe as the rest of the macro lagers.I think Brooklyn Brewery has lost its way. I went into their bar and never had one decent beer. Their 2% stout was woeful.
That sounds great, I’m sure moving there and learning about / exploring the area will be exciting.
I did a quick Google search for tap rooms and breweries in the area and it looks like you’re in luck - there are lots! I’m sure you have other interests but for me the beer scene is right up there![]()
I’m hearing great things about Japanese whiskey (not a word about Indian though ) seen a bottle in sainsburys down to £25 son not the same price rangeWent into a bottle shop in a not-so-affluent area, only went in for a homey and was looking at his stock of whiskey.

I felt my purchase of Jamieson whiskey for $55 was quite insignificant.
