Young's Waggle Dance

I have decided that i am going to try some of the more weird and wonderful beverages that my local off-liscence has to offer. I will try anything once. Waggle dance. Strange name, isn't it? Well, the waggle dance (for those who don't know.) is the way in which honey bees communicate in their little hive, in order to tell their little mates in what direction, and how far the nectar is from them. They make little figure of eight movements, and the number of turns, and the direction helps them to communicate. So, whats the link with the drink? Well, as far as i am aware waggle dance is the only beer that is brewed with the addition of honey. ...  Read the complete review

What on earth is it about Young's beers? We couldn't get them when I was in my formative drinking years down in Ashford. It was all Courage and Whitbread Fremlins, no mean beers though, if you had a decent cellarman looking after them. In fact there used to be a little pub in Ashford, the Trumpeter, real tatty lino and death-trap carpet kinda place but it used to sell the most divine Fremlins Bitter - New Year's Eve 1982 or thereabouts; several pints to the good in various other hostelries on a "reunion tour" and then that little place with plain old pumps and no decoration but the most memorable beer I've ever drunk. Appearances you see, can be ...  Read the complete review

I was thinking what to do for a review, when I spotted this bottle of ale on the back of the breakfast bar. I had got my husband a few different bottles of beer for a change from his usual Fosters or Carling( I know that they are lagers).

A beer made of honey? It's true and it's delicious! Youngs make WaggleDance, a beer which is specially blende with pure honey to make a wonderful deep gold coloured ale, of 5% volume. You can't mistake this beer on the shelves, in bottles, as it comes with a wonderful honey coloured label, featuring a hive on the front, and the logo 'Strong, smooth and delicious'. Does the beer taste of honey? Not quite, but the honey does give it a sweet taste, reminiscent of drinks such as milk stout, and it is certainly a moreish drink. Despite coming in 500ml bottles (near enough 1 pint) it is very drinkable, and you can easily ...  Read the complete review
