Hello people, Welcome to episode 33 of the when in Yorkshire Podcast - this is a special one - the first episode recorded in front of a live audience at the Podcast Social Club in thirsk. My guest is Luke Raven of Ilkley Brewery and we chat all things beer. It was great chat and a real education for me in to the world of brewing and I got taste some the brewery’s beers which I can honestly say we’re all very tasty however my favourite being the American pale ale; Hendrix which Luke gives a nice insight into. Now once you’ve listened to myself and Luke chat about his history with beer and brewing not just in ilkley but across the world - then why not get along to the ilkley brewery on 6th December for their winter social event where they will have 20 of their beers on offer to sample. Tickets start from £5 and include a beer and go up to £15 which can include food and a beer. I’m very excited to get along so check out https://www.ilkleybrewery.co.uk/event/winter-social/ and grab your tickets I’ll see you there. We do discuss some the beers and a description of each is here: HENDRIX - AMERICAN PALE ALE Clean and fresh, the American way. Brewed with oats to soften the brazen hoppy edge. Big citrus flavours, with background tropical fruitiness and a slight piney bitterness. HANGING STONE - OATMEAL STOUT Rich and creamy, with a bitter finish of forest fruits and coffee. Aromas of chocolate and smoke. Named after Celtic runes scattered across Ilkley Moor. VIRGIN MARY - ALCOHOL FREE PALE Mary Jane re-imagined. For that time when you want a beer, but don’t want to “drink”. When you want maximum flavour, minimum guilt. Low carb, low calorie and alcohol free. Did you know that a ripe banana can have 0.5% alcohol in it? MARY CHRISTMAS - SPICED AMBER ALE An Amber ale infused with spice and all things nice. Brewed with dried vine fruit, orange peel, cinnamon, nutmeg and molasses, this is simply Christmas in a glass.
