I tasted the Blackrock stout in its two guises side by side recently, and I think they are two very different pints (or 500mLs in the case of the bottle). <br /><br />As a matter of brewing science, would the larger 'conditioning' vessel would make a difference to the beer, I am thinking for example of Chimay Bleu in 330mL and then the 750mL?Seáneenhttp://www.9beanrow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7620312500861993314.post-87550925652992815332011-02-17T03:14:54.281-08:002011-02-17T03:14:54.281-08:00Black Rock is a cracking stout on cask, but I don&...Black Rock is a cracking stout on cask, but I don't think cask conditioned ale is a huge part of Dungarvan Brewing's business. It's a nice side line, but bottle conditioned beer is their bread and butter. <br /><br />It's easier to get pubs to take bottles than a beer engine and unfiltered bottle conditioned beer is every bit as good as cask.Séan Billingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10347677720588826886noreply@blogger.com
