Newcastle Keg & the Geordie Schooner originally appeared on Hop Talk.
These new kegs are pretty cool and they are certainly very convenient for a party. We took this on a vacation to the shore and being able to fill up half-way, or all the way, was great. My kids were really attracted to it, too. They kept reminding mom & dad that whenever we wanted more to let them know and they would fill up for us. (is that wrong?)
I have to note that the tap broke on us and made mess. (no, we didn’t blame the kids)
As for the Newcastle Brown, I just don’t love this. They call it the lighter side of dark. I would call it, the weaker side of strong. This beer is insipid, despite its nice brown color. It is a great gateway beer… something that might help bring the masses closer to real craft beer.
My wife commented that the new style pub glasses are completely awesome!
They take a lead from the Sam Adams glass and add a nucleation area to the inside with etchings. I admit, they are study and easy to hold; a very good beer glass.
