I was wondering more about putting it through the warm cellaring process they use on Madeira now - and Martyn, thanks for the intriguing note about your similar project. <br /><br />Now, about the Export India Porter we've been discussing on Ron Pattinson's blog, and putting that through estufagem...

Thank you.<br /><br />1) You're wrong. Really, you are hopelessly and completely wrong.<br /><br />2) Even if you were right (which you aren't - see point 1) - so what? What would it matter? If the dishes go with the food, why is that such a problem? Why does it make you so upset?<br /><br />3) Who am I kidding? Who am I fucking kidding? What do you think I'm trying to do here, perpetrate some grand conspiracy on a gullible public? Why the fuck would I be trying to "kid" anyone about IPA and beer? What fraud are you accusing me of exactly? Actually, don't answer - I'm not interested.<br /><br />4) If you don't like the sound of this dinner, fine. But haven't you got anything better to do on a Saturday afternoon?<br /><br />Bye, Brian.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03011702209832734676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-8458878370774967242012-11-24T21:26:44.600+00:002012-11-24T21:26:44.600+00:00Pete, all of those beers will go with any of those...Pete, all of those beers will go with any of those dishes, and thousands of others too.

I will be explaining on the night - It's not and IPA, but I was looking for a beer that resembled my Calcutta IPA once it had arrived in India, and it had lost a lot of hop character and gained some distinctly vinous characteristics. So this is in there as a proxy - may even experiment with blending it!<br /><br />Bryan - my book Hops & Glory was my attempt to recreate the conditions of IPA's voyage to India. I was partially successful.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03011702209832734676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30743480.post-44569941806135660492012-11-23T07:18:42.885+00:002012-11-23T07:18:42.885+00:00Sounds like a great dinner, and I'm really gla...Sounds like a great dinner, and I'm really glad to see Anderson Valley on the list. One thing, though: Last I checked, AVBC's double was called Heelch O' Hops. Hop Ottin is their regular IPA.
