Another beery post! It's Saturday evening and I'm cooking a pork belly on fennel for my wife and I, and, since the kids are either out or away at Uni we're splashing out on the fancy cuisine front. While the meat is roasting in the oven I cracked open a new Siren beer obtained from the brewery this very afternoon, as fresh as a daisy and a delightful mash up of intense hoppy/resin flavours with a core of soft orange and mango, decent bitterness too. This IPA (Far Above the World) is made using Australian Galaxy hops which impart very vivid flavours to a beer, usually in the orange/tangerine direction, although it depends on the treatment and style of course. Great start to the evening tho, and the food is smelling lush, it's just started raining here so we're looking forward to getting stuck into a good film and hunkering down on the sofa in peace and quiet (for a change!)..
