January, it certainly did feel like a very long month, I am thankful that the first month of 2021 is over and I am now looking forward to seeing what February has to bring.

In brief, this is what I am hoping to achieve throughout the shortest month of the year!

Firstly, I am deeply excited and looking forward to sampling some more wonderful beers and whiskies, especially a selected handful that I’ve never tasted before, in my mind, it’s all about experimenting new flavours through the palate.

Secondly, to help and boost The Cask Connoisseur, I am going to be running a selection of adverts on my social media platforms, the reason for this is because I want to get my name out into the world, I want bloggers and people to know why I am passionate about The UK’s Brewing and Whisky Industry.

In my previous post, I brought you all an in-depth review of an amazing beer called Masterpiece IPA, which is proudly brewed by The Heritage Brewing Company.

Throughout my post, I mentioned how this flagship beer had a connecting link with one of Burton’s Brewing Heritage icons, Worthington Whiteshield.

Furthermore, I introduced you all to Brews Of The World which is one of the finest beer shops that you could ever come across, I also explained how this shop stocks some of the most beautiful beers from around the UK and many parts of the world.

The BenRiach 10 Years – Curiositas

Good morning to all of my wonderful followers, I hope you’re all having a fabulous week so far, I am here today to deliver a new Whisky Wednesday Review Post.

Now, I know that Spring is still a couple of months away, but I am a keen lover of sweet drinks from time to time, especially fruity beers or even sweet-tasting whiskies.

However, we all are well aware of the certain problem that we face when selecting our types of drink, we have certain factors to take into account, such as Aroma, Flavour, Appearance and Aftertaste.

Hello to you all, the weekend has come round once again, its quite crazy to think we are halfway through the first month of 2021 already!

I would like to say a massive thank you to all of my followers who wished me a Happy Birthday on Tuesday, I had a fantastic day and celebrated it well in Lockdown Style.

Isobel bought me a hamper which contained traditional bar snacks and two bottles of beer, it was so unexpected and a massive surprise to open up, I can’t wait to try some of the treats that are packed into the hamper, especially the beer!

Hello everyone, I hope you’ve all had a tremendous weekend, I am back once again with another fantastic beer post!

Today, is a very special day for me, it’s my Birthday, so I thought to myself it was only right for me to share a post to you on a absolute magnificent beer that I tried over the weekend!

My birthday this year, I will admit is going to be a strange one, I can’t be with Isobel, I can’t go to the pub, I can’t go out for a Birthday meal, instead I am just going to be at home, and enjoying a couple of beers with my mum and brother.

The UK is now in lockdown 3, its clearly not the greatest start to the New Year, but we’ve all just got to stick together, follow the rules and then hope the summer will bring a slight change in normality.

I can gather a lot of my followers are missing that social time in there local pub, enjoying a couple of pints of beer, truth is so am I!
