This week’s show features Royal Sovereign, a Barley Wine from Cullercoats Brewery. Our Supermarket sup is Adnams Ghost Ship. And our final beer is Wild Beer Iced Modus….
Its been an incredible 24 hours, but there was one last treat in store for me in the shape of Goos Island’s amazing Bourbon County Stout.
I really wanted to put an old favourite in the mix so that if I wasn’t enjoying the other beers, I had something to look forward to.
This was a brilliant show to record. I was joined by Ruari O’Toole and we took the Marble Pint down into the Victoria Tunnel which runs beneath the streets of Newcastle. Why? Well because we could! Caution: The sound quality on this recording reflects the fact that it was recorded deep underground!
Next up, I was starting my hour behind the bar in the glorious, world famous, Free Trade Inn in Byker. Back with me to review this beer was my good friend Rob!
For a real treat, friend of the show Gary (@TheAleTrail) brought along a double 100 rated beer from the US.
Midday and well into the 24 hours, time for something special. For this beer, I was joined by Chris from StuBrew and Jamie from Northern Alchemy.
Next up I took a stroll round to The Town Mouse and reviewed a beer with friend of the show and Town Mouse landlord, John.
Halfway through! Its 9am and life awakes around me. I’m off to do the Parkrun in Newcastle but first a beer review. This time joined by friend of the show, Charlie.
Its 8am, you’ve been up all night, what you need now is a milk stout… Perhaps Big Drop Milk Stout is the perfect answer! http://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/nesippinforecast/Episodes/%2324in24/%2324+11+8am+Big+Drop+Milk+Stout.mp3

It was time for my first alcohol free beer. Drink in the Sun, in the middle of the night when the sun is nowhere to be seen….
The only way to stay fresh at 1am with a full 20 hours still to go, is to crack open a can of whoop ass! Another solo review, slotted in whilst I was brewing a beer. Enjoy!
Back again, this time solo! After my partner in crime left me for the sanctuary of his nice warm bed, I got stuck into my first solo beer review. This is a review of To Ol Totem Passion. E njoy!
