    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    It's Omnipollo. It's what they do.

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    Very typical of Omnipollo though, who use way too much lactose etc for my taste.

    I was sort of waiting for more detail than a country, unless "United States" is now acceptable for most of the pictures posted here....

    Name That Skyline - Picture Game

    I didn't say it was Avila, merely that there was a memorial to it as it had historical significance. Blenheim Palace isn't in Bavaria, Waterloo station isn't in Belgium. But if it's two hours away then that implies somewhere down on the Tagus valley towards Toledo. If we're talking the...

    Name That Skyline - Picture Game

    Ávila is a town in Spain, but in Roman times it was known as Abila or Abela according to Wikipedia, so do we have something like the shrine a few goes back, a "fake" classical ruin that is much more recent than Roman times? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%81vila#History It also has...

    Lallemand Verdant IPA yeast

    I don't think I've had it but it should be fine, as the label suggests they're one of the traditional names although you don't see them much now. Edit - huh, apparently they were the biggest jam makers in Britain at one point, they went through the hands of Premier who are one of the biggest...

    Lallemand Verdant IPA yeast

    I suspect it would be like honey, that it wouldn't really work, but nothing stopping you from trying. Well if you're really going for the history angle, it's particularly associated with Dundee, Mackays claim that it all started when a Spanish ship sought refuge from a storm there and a...

    It feels a bit harsh as Bruce did the hard work, but @govner1 is correct, it's the World Heritage Site of Stone Town - the old bit of Zanzibar City. Surprisingly most of the historic bits are not that old, mostly dating to the end of the 19th century apart from the original 17th-century Omani...

    Lallemand Verdant IPA yeast

    Yep, in British English marmalade is a very specific flavour. Marmalade is a jam/preserve made from Seville oranges, which are the bitter members of the orange family, a citrus equivalent of Morello cherries. I used to work with a guy from Seville and he was fascinated by the whole idea as in...

    All of India is well north of the equator - and tends not to be the biggest fan of Islam.... Madagascar is getting a bit warmer, but... Now we're hot. Town?

    Both very, very cold. There's certainly mosques and two flavours of Christianity in there.

    South Africa is cool but at least it's the right hemisphere, Dubai was in the Gulf last time I looked so covered by the same no.
