Now that Rogue has apparently shed its mortal coil, I have to do another brewery obit. (Ugh!) Given Rogue’s reputation today, one may imagine its legacy is merely surviving. In fact, it was a hugely influential brewer, and at one time its beers were considered groundbreaking.

Thought I’d finish off a day of study in Prague with this delicious IPA from Sibeeeria which is as clear as a mathematician’s mind (I’m told) while the hops leap out of the glass with the alacrity of Minoan bull jumpers

BLOG POST: What was Rustic Ale? Why have we never heard of it before? And what meaning did the words ‘rustic ale’ convey to drinkers? 🍺🍻

Mann’s Rustic Ale and ideas of authenticity in beer
