My pulling yet another sample of Cnterbury Jack from Shepherd Neame - the most popular beer on the stand!

Me pulling yet another sample of Canterbury Jack from Shepherd Neame - the most popular beer on the stand!

Just back to the hotel after two gruelling days at Det Goda Köket show in Stockholm. After 17 hours of serving and talking about beers I have lost both my voice and the sensation in my feet but it’s been worth it! Met some great people (including Joakim from the Good Morning Beer Lovers blog) and tried some amazing beers. Full update to come but first I need to sleep!

    Would be interesting to hear how you personally like Sherpherd Neames ales. The few I have tried made me yawn and pour out half the bottle so I could get to something more interesting.

    @Anders: I think you may be asking the wrong person for an objective answer. I was born only a few kilometres from the Shepherd Neame brewery and from an age when I could look over a bar I’ve been drinking their beers. Therefore every time I open a bottle of SN beer here in Sweden I smell home, smokey pubs, pickled eggs served in packets of salt and vinegar crisps and taste afternoons waiting for my dad to come out of pubs, football matches and sunday lunches. These feelings, as any ex-pat will tell you, are amplified even further when you live abroad.
    That’s the most inconclusive answer I can give you I’m afraid!

    Anders, clearly you have no taste buds. What are you talking about? SN beers are the best.

    Darren: Great answer either way, almost makes me wanna go to England for a few ”pints” myself even though british brews arent on the top of my list. I understand and can also appreciate nostalgia (its a part of the reason why I dont drink macrolager anymore ;)

    Ken Adams: I am saying that I have never fallen for ”SN” beers and when I have picked up new offerings showing up at systemet I have never been impressed. This doesnt mean that I wont keep trying though, one day perhaps my tastebuds will be evolved enough (if I have any at all) to appreciate the subtile complexity of SN beers.

    Hello Darren and thanks for the great company you gave me both days after work and showed me a new good beer from Shepherd Neame Brewery.
    It was people like you who make me want to go abroad and taste beer wich will never come to sweden.
    Keep up the good work and hope ”Det Goda Köket” was a success :)

    I really like the Canterbury Jack Pump Clip, very nice indeed. I think more breweries should condsider this modern approach.
