festival programme

Welcome to the Glasgow Real Ale Festival 204

There is no doubt that 204 is a significant year for Scotland:

700 years since a certain spat between Scotland and England.

4 years since the Briggait opened.

40 years since CAMRA’s first Scottish branch – Glasgow and West of Scotland – was formed.

30 years since the first Scottish CAMRA Beer Festival in Glasgow.

And of course the year of the Commonwealth Games, the Ryder Cup and a wee vote.

But of greater significance than all of that, it is the year of the first Glasgow Real Ale Festival this century. This is not the time to try and explain why there has not been a festival here since 996. This is the time to look to the future – or at least the next few days!

We have a magnificent venue, superb beers from Scotland, England and Germany, keen volunteers and, we hope, thirsty customers that will combine to result in a festival that will long be remembered.

There are too many people and organisations involved in this festival for us to thank them individually here. From the venue’s owners, to our sponsors, to neighbouring CAMRA branches and to the volunteers who have given a great deal of time in the run up to today, without all their help and assistance, the festival would not be able to take

place. You all have our thanks.Jonathan Kemp Kenny HannahJoint Organisers

festival programme

Glasgow’s first beer festival – 30 years ago

After a gap of nearly two

decades there is a beer festival in Glasgow again, but the first beer festival in the city took place almost exactly 30 years ago.

The Scottish Beer Exhibition was held in the Queen Margaret Union, Glasgow Uni-versity on a cold and wet September day in 984. It was indeed run by Scottish branches and not a Glasgow branch event and from the name maybe it wasn’t even a festival though of course it was.

There weren’t too many Scottish brewer-ies then, so beers from Belhaven and Maclays predominated along with some from McEwan’s and Lorimer & Clark. The first micro-breweries had started up by then, so beers from Broughton and the sadly missed Strathalbyn featured strongly.

Entertainment was provided by members of the brass section of the Scottish National Orchestra, many of whom drank in the

Bon Accord at the time. They formed an oompah band and per-formed many German beer hall favourites to the delight of drinkers. They were paid in beer and downed not a few pints.

In addition there was a worst record show by Bill Mor-ris featuring quite a few Country and Western discs. At the end of the festival an LP by Sydney Devine was auctioned off – the winning bidder promptly demanded a hammer and smashed the LP, shouting that

the singer had destroyed his marriage. We never found out the story behind that, but the pieces were made into badges and sold off.

A second Scottish beer festival was held in the QMU in 985 and the first Glasgow branch festival was due to be held there the follow-ing year – but we were refused a license at the last minute. We did manage to hold it in a

disused supermarket in Anderston the next year, but this was the start of the branch’s problems running beer festivals.

beer list

The beersIf you haven’t been to a beer festival before, some tips on using this beer list.

The bars at GRAF are organised broadly by brewery, which is the line in italics, so pay attention to that line in each entry, which will help you to find the beer. You will help our volunteer staff a lot if you order your beer roughly where the cask is, not at the other end of the bar. The last line in each entry is an indication of the style of the beer, which will tell you roughly what to expect.

Please be aware that not all beers will be available at once. This list contains the beers that have been ordered – they may not all have actually been delivered. A particular beer may already be sold out, or we might hold it back to ensure drinkers at the next session get some – or we just don’t have room for them all at the same time.

So don’t just pick a beer from the list and demand it at the bar! It is usually easiest to look at the signs on the casks or the handpumps on the bar to see what is actually available at a particular moment. You might also want to use the QR codes on page 4 to visit the live beer list on the festival website www.glasgowrealalefestival.co.uk.

Festival charities

You cannot, of course, reach the festival in the Briggait without being reminded of the terrible ac-cident that befell the Clutha Vaults last year.

The Clutha is one of Glasgow’s most famous, iconic pubs and has an important place in the city’s live music scene.

In memory of the ten who lost their lives and the many other casualties, we have decided that the Clutha Appeal Fund should be recognised as one of our chosen charities.

Our second charity has been chosen in memory of one of our close friends and Glasgow CAMRA member, Dr Rick St Denis, who sadly passed away this year. You can read an obituary of Dr Rick on the following page. Our chosen charity is the Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund, a charity dedicated to defeating pancreatic cancer by funding innovative research.

Pancreatic cancer has the lowest survival rate of all cancers – just 3% of those diagnosed survive for five years. It is also the only cancer that has seen no improvement in this figure over the last 40 years.

Pancreatic cancer is notori-ously difficult to diagnose and treat, because it is unusually aggressive, symptoms are often vague and ap-pear at a late stage and surgery is very difficult.

Yet despite its high death rate and lack of improvement in chances of survival, pancreatic cancer attracts little research funding in comparison with many other cancers. In 20, pancreatic cancer attracted just % of research funding from the major funding bodies.

PCRF believes that research is the key to improving survival chances for those diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. So it’s dedicated to fund-ing and promoting innovative, world-class research into the disease - research that will lead to the devel-opment of more effective detection, diagnosis and treatment.

PCRF directly funds research into the disease by offering grants to researchers in universities, research institutes and hospitals in the UK and Ireland, and encourages the ma-jor research funding organisations and the research community to give pancreatic cancer greater attention.■ www.pcrf.org.uk

Glasgow Real Ale Festival will be supporting two charities this year: the Clutha appeal fund and the Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund.

Dr Rick St Denis 96–204

Rick St Denis, who died on February 5th, was a former colleague of mine and a good friend to many who shared his appreciation of a good beer. He was a high energy particle physicist who worked on experi-ments at Fermilab in Chicago and CERN in Geneva, latterly taking an active role in searching for the Higgs boson, leading to it being discovered in 202.

Rick was born in Chicago and didn’t discover that beer could taste good until he took up a post in Munich and discovered the delights of Bavarian beer. Later he joined the group in Glasgow University and quickly learnt where to find good real ale and was always happy to take visitors to where he thought the beer was best.

He came to CAMRA branch meetings and socials whenever back in Glasgow from trips to experiments, easily making friends with his amusing stories from a life in physics. He tried to explain even the most difficult concepts in an entertaining way and was never conde-scending.

Rick developed pancreatic cancer last year and endured some months of acute discomfort towards the end even while producing a paper with his thoughts on the early universe and massive black holes. He will be missed by his wife Suzie and his many friends.

officially known as Rick’s Bar. I’m sure he would have approved of our choice of Franconia as the source of our foreign beers.

Why Franconia?In some ways, the first question is where’s

Franconia? Simply put, it is the northern part of Bavaria, with its capital being Nürnberg.

Nürnberg is one of Glasgow’s twin cities, so that might be seen to be link enough. But there was much more than simple politics involved in

the choice. Franconia is the home of countless breweries, producing beers of all types – from Pils style lagers to the rauchbiers of Bamberg. It is dif-ficult to argue with the suggestion that some of the best German beers come from this area. The beers we have represent a small selection of Franconian beers that, we hope, showcase some of the best beers that the area has to offer.

Prost!

Hell: Fear not, this is just German for pale.Dunkel: dark. Lagerbier: In English we would describe most of these beers as lager. But it is quite rare to find it on a German beer label – when it appears, it generally denotes the most basic beer in a brewery’s range. This does not, however, mean the beer is ordinary!Export: A bit stronger than Lagerbier.Hefe: yeast.Hefetrüb: cloudy with yeast.Pils/Pilsner/Pilsener: Golden to straw in colour and

hoppier than an Export. Some bog-standard yellow beers call themselves Pils, but the beers on sale here are proper specimens of the style.Rauch: meaning “smoke”, this indicates a beer made from smoked malt – reminiscent of bacon, it is something of an acquired taste, but once acquired you won’t want to stop!Weizen/Weißbier/Weiße: Wheat beer. Highly carbonated and may smell of bananas. Usually cloudy with suspended yeast, so you may also see Hefeweizen or Hefeweißbier.

Oh, and that “ß” is pronounced “ss”. Bock: strong beer. Usually a sweetish lager. Doppelbock is even stronger. Weizenbock is a strong wheat beer (see Weizen).Kellerbier/Landbier: Inexact terms used to suggest a rustic country-style beer. May be cloudy.

Who said German was difficult? Feel free to try out your new language skills on our volunteers!

How to read Franconian beer labels

Unfortunately, our German beer supplier has been unable to provide us with any draught beer this year. He has also been unable to provide us with a beer list in time for publication in the programme. The volunteers who staff Rick’s Bar will be able to help you choose the beers that best match your taste.

The Briggait: a short history

It seems like yesterday that I was

involved in a heated discussion about whether our mag-nificent venue, the Briggait, was in the Merchant City area of Glasgow or not.

Historically at least, there is no doubt. Not only was the Briggait in the merchants’ area of the medieval city, it was in the very heart of it. Bridgegate is one of the oldest streets in Glasgow, running between the Saltmarket (itself a continuation of High Street) and the Victoria Bridge – built on the site of the oldest (and until the 8th

century only) bridge over the Clyde in the city. There has been a bridge here since at least 245.

The “modern” histo-ry of the Briggait starts in about 60, when the Glasgow Company of Merchants built the first Merchants’ House on the site. This was extended and rebuilt after the great fire of Glasgow in 652 (some-how, not as famous as the inferior London copy some 4 years later…). The Mer-chants continued to oc-cupy the site until 87, when it was sold for housing. A condition of the sale was that the

steeple was to remain – a steeple that remains to this day, forming a centrepiece of the Brig-gait buildings.

The housing built here quickly degener-ated into slum housing, and was acquired by the City Improvement Trust. It was this Trust that decided to relocate the Fish Market from Great Clyde Street into a new, purpose built hall in 873. A further two halls were later added to the complex.

The site continued in use as Glasgow’s Fish Market until 977, when it moved to join the other great Glasgow markets at

Blochairn. Plans to demolish the buildings were published in 980, sparking a movement to save them. For a short period in the 980s, the Briggait operated as a shopping centre, but this was unsuccessful.

Fortunately, the buildings survived, and were restored and re-opened in 200 by WASPS Artists Studios. I thank them for letting us use the 873 Hall for this festival.

Of course, with the GRAF, a new page in the Briggait’s history will be written…

Beer in Glasgow in 873Robbie Pickering finds out what beer the city had to offer around the time the Briggait was built

A well-known name, Tennent’s,

already dominated the brewing trade in Glasgow a hundred and forty years ago.

In the year 873 the trustees of Wellpark applied for, and were granted, permission to erect new malt barns, vaults and bottles stores on the west side of St Anne St.

At the time Ten-nent’s were one of the largest exporters of bottled beers in the world. In the 870s their principal products were pale and strong export ales and porter – they wouldn’t start making lager for another ten years.

Around this time a brew called X5 Export was brewed to an origi-nal gravity of around 089, implying about 8% alcohol! Not only that, it used around four pounds of hops per barrel – modern brew-ers think two pounds per barrel is a lot.

The Glaswegian drinker couldn’t only

get Tennent’s beer, though – pubs were also quite likely to get deliveries from Edin-burgh, Alloa or Falkirk breweries.

English beer was also readily avail-able in Glasgow and famous brands like Bass and Allsopp could be obtained from John Forbes at 75 Sauchiehall St. or William Edgar on George Square, who also offered porter from Guinness or Reid’s of London alongside Edinburgh-brewed Six Guinea Sweet Ale. A nine-gallon cask of India Pale Ale or XXX Porter retailed for fifteen shillings.

Our sponsorsThe Festival Organisers would like to thank our sponsors for the support that they have shown to GRAF.

Isle of Skye Brewing CoOur ales are born of Skye’s unforgiving landscapes and the centuries-old traditions of Scottish brew-ing.

As one of only eleven island breweries from Scotland, the Isle of Skye Brewing Company is led by head brewer Pam MacRuary. We are delighted to get involved and show our support to the Glasgow Real Ale Festival, who share our pas-sion for great craft ale and “Keeping it Real’.

If you’ve visited Skye, you’ll know the impos-ing grandeur of the landscape – walls of rock meet with ever-changing light and shade. Our brewery is set in the heart of this dramatic scenery, right next to the pier at Uig. And while this is the gate-way to the Western Isles, it could just as easily be the ends of the earth.

From the rain-soaked soil to the glass in your hand, we use only the most authentic ingredients in our ales. That even means milling our own grains – right here at the brewery. This gives us complete control over flavour and freshness. And when an ale calls for a little extra bitterness, we simply handpick local berries and plants.

All to let the true taste of malt shine through. Slàinte!

Jackson’s Doghouse96 Cambridge Street, Glasgow G3 6RUJacksons was refurbished and re-named in 20 (formerly McIntosh’s). It has now established itself as one of the quality, good beer pubs within the city centre.

During the refurbishment the windows were opened up, and the “see-in/see-out” factor adds to the desire to come in, and join the many other people who are having a good time in this bar.

As a genuine free trade operator, this pub has no brewery ties and thus is able to listen to its

customers and provide the beers that they want to drink.

Over the past 2 months Jacksons has in-creased its draught product offering to a now, well established, full range of Cask and Craft beers.

From remote Isle of Skye to more quirky local brews, our aim is to provide a range of choice of ale with qual-ity, strength and flavour

Our Craft range takes a similar approach with Innis and Gunn and Williams Brothers the latest offerings on tap.

Good Spirits Co.The Good Spirits Co. was opened in 20 to fill a gap in the market for quality drinks that weren’t available in Glasgow. They stock a wide range of excellent whisky, gin, rum, bourbon, tequila, brandy, vodka and other spirits, liqueurs, fortified wine, champagne, Havana cigars and of course a great selection of craft, bottled beers. Pretty much everything except wine!

Owners Mark, Matthew and Shane have spent many years involved in the drinks industry and all three have served their time working for Oddbins in various capacities. They have selected a top team of staff, including ex-Oddbins colleagues, to ensure that as much drinks knowledge as pos-sible is crammed into the Bath Street shop.

At the back of the shop there is a purpose-built tasting room where weekly tastings take place in-cluding regular beer tastings both run by the shop and by external companies.

Selected stock and ticket information can be found on the website at www.thegoodspiritsco.com

The LauriestonYou will be assured of a warm welcome at the Laurieston Bar, the Glasgow and West of Scotland CAMRA Branch Pub of the Year 203.

We are a traditional, family run pub, serving

real ales from Fyne Ales, together with a full range of other beers, wines and spirits. Our food range consists largely of pies from our traditional bar top pie warmer.

The interior of our pub is unchanged since the 960s, and as a result we are one of the pubs listed in CAMRA’s National Inventory, although it is not just the past that attracts customers to our pub. We are well situated for the O2 Academy and for all types of transport, being within a short walk of Central Station, close to a number of bus routes, and, of course, being just across the road from Bridge Street subway station.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

AleselA AleselA started life three years ago, launching at Paisley Beer Festival, as Glasgow’s original online quality bottled beer store.

At AleselA we stock a wide range of Scottish ales plus a selection from the USA and Europe too. We concentrate on sourcing stock from micro-breweries as opposed to the big multi-national breweries whose beers are commonly available. Browse our website, select your bottled beers and we’ll deliver them to your door. We deliver nationwide and locally to your home or work place – local deliveries can be tailored to suit you with

flexible dates and times – evenings and week-ends included.

We have recently expanded and are now

wholesale distributors for Loch Ness, Windswept, Top Out, Atom and Valhalla breweries.

The State BarWe are a traditional bar in the Charing Cross area of Glasgow situated close to hotels and handy for nearby tourist attractions, cca, Glasgow School of Art, Kelvingrove Art Galleries and only a 5 min walk from the city centre. Charing Cross train sta-tion is close by.

We have seven continu-ally changing handpumps dedicated to Ale from not just Scotland but all over the UK. We have been lucky enough to have won the local CAMRA branch award for best pub twice in recent years and also feature in the annual CAMRA Good Beer Guide. We are also the only Oakham Ales Oakademy member in the west of Scotland.

It is with great pride that we are associated with the Glasgow Real Ale Festival as sponsor and hope everyone has a great time.

Cheers from all at the State!

Kelburn Brewing CoThe Kelburn Brewing Com-pany is a family run business based in Barrhead, East Ren-frewshire, Scotland.

In the mid seventies, Derek realised that the quality of ale in the UK left something to be desired and determined to do something about it. As a science graduate from Paisley University he had some knowledge of the brewing process and decided to develop this through his experiments in home brewing. He was greatly assisted by the brewers at the now sadly defunct Strathalbyn Brewery.

His love of good quality ale caused him to join the Campaign for Real Ale in 978 and later to form the Renfrewshire Branch of CAMRA in 98. The company was formed in October 200 and commenced brewing in April 2002. The Brewery team has grown to seven-strong, still headed by Derek Moore.

Over the last 2 years, our range of ales has grown from Goldihops and Red Smiddy to a core range of eight ales plus seasonal specials, all brewed from water, malt, yeast and whole hops using traditional methods.

Kelburn exists solely to produce quality ales. It is a Directors’ pledge that this will not be compro-mised for any reason whatsoever.

willing to pay for a pint of it were it being served in a pub, so I started refining my recipes in antici-pation of ‘going commercial’. Two of these received particularly good reviews in trials and so were chosen as the GRAF launch candidates.

The name Jaw Brew was chosen because The Jaw is the name of the old miller’s cottage where I live and brew. It was built as far as we know in the early 700s, but the exact origins of the name are not recorded. However, thanks to the internet we discovered that the word Jaw in ancient Scots means ‘a wave’ or ‘to pour’. There is a line in The Poems of the Sempills of Beltrees sometime before 706 which reads “Wha’ll jaw ale on my drouthy tongue?” – that basically sealed it.

Fyne AlesAt Fyne Ales we are

all about producing an outstanding range of mod-ern British beers, which we make in a spectacular location, and with integrity in everything we do. Our beers are built on the Brit-ish Cask Ale tradition, Brit-ain’s contribution to the global beer culture. This is a method that allows us to pack large amounts of flavour into relatively low alcohol beers. To this we have added a focus on new beer styles and big flavoured hops from the New World. This enables us to produce bold hop-forward beers that retain balance and subtlety.”

Williams Bros. Brewing CoGlasgow’s threads of rejuvenation and revitalisa-tion feel more vibrant than ever in 204.

The resurgence of the Glasgow CAMRA Real Ale Festival – after a hiatus of over two decades – is testament to this; proving that the city’s love of beer isn’t just alive and well, but undeniably on the up.

204 also serves as a landmark year for Wil-liams Bros. Brewing Co as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Fraoch – Scotland’s original craft beer.

Who would have thought that a small, commercial batch of beer – brewed in the haze of ’88 – could set off such an unstoppable chain of events?

In the quarter of a century since that fabled first batch, Williams Bros. have sprung forth from our Fraoch-fuelled launch pad and brewed over 00 craft beers and counting; some seasonal, some lim-ited edition, some collaborative, some core range.

Today the Brotherhood has feet on the ground the world over and a reputation as one of Scotland’s most eclectic and prolific craft beer companies.

Be sure to check out some of our latest brews – including the mighty, mighty Profanity Stout and our enhanced red ale Paradigm Shift – at this year’s Festival.

Here’s to the next 25 years…

The Story of Jaw BrewAfter taking voluntary redundancy at the beginning of the year, I began looking for a new career that did not in-volve long periods away from home. It appeared there was much to recommend expanding on my home-brewing hobby and research showed that while Edinburgh had a couple of dozen small breweries close by, there were precious few near Glasgow… a wrong that needed righting.

Many friends praised the beer I brewed at home, at least to the extent of saying they would be

This tour starts in the city centre

at the Drum and Monkey () on the corner of St Vincent and Renfield Street.

A former bank, this grand building is part of the Nicholson’s chain, serving up to five beers from all over the UK. The pub is comfortable, though it gets busy on Friday and Saturday nights, and serves good if slightly pricey bar food into the evening.

In nearby Drury Street is the Horse Shoe Bar (2). The beer range may not be too adventurous here, but it’s worth a visit. Dating from 870, it has many features of inter-est such as the whisky casks, the constantly repeating horseshoe motif and the longest continuous bar in the UK. Popular and lively, it has attracted some interesting customers over the years; Keith Floyd enjoyed a pie here, Frankie Miller has sung a song or two upstairs, and Roy Rog-ers and Trigger trotted through one day in 95 (if you find this hard to believe, check out www.oldglasgowpubs.co.uk). Good, reason-ably priced food is

available. Halfway up Hope

Street you’ll find the Pot Still (3). Although best known as a whisky outlet, with an impressive display of malts on the shelves and in the unusual whisky safe, the pub also has four handpumps with beers generally coming from Scottish breweries. Bar snacks are available all day.

Most of the other pubs with decent beer in this vicinity are Wetherspoons. The Counting House (4) on George Square was JDW’s first outlet in the city, occupying the former chief Glasgow office of the Bank of Scotland, a magnificent building designed by J T Rochead. It is recommended in the current guide for its “interesting ales from innovative breweries”. An equally impressive building is the Crystal Palace (5) in Jamaica Street, previously a furniture warehouse and one of the first iron and glass structures in Glasgow, designed by John Baird in 856. In its own way the eponymous Edward G Wylie (6) in Bothwell Street

is also of interest as an example of a 930s American-style financial sector building. The other “Spoons” around here are Camperdown Place (7), in front of Queen Street Station, the Society Room (8) also in West George Street (both of these in the current guide) and the Sir John Moore (9) in Argyle Street near Central Station.

The Laurieston (0), in Bridge Street, just a few hundred yards across the river from Central Station, is an unexpected gem of a pub. You may have seen the article about it in a recent edition of the Guzzler and have visited already. If not, it’s well worth the short journey to this street corner pub with a lot of character, a range of Fyne Ales and an antique pie machine. This pub is busy with local customers, supple-mented by people going to the O2 Academy plus groups of sub-crawlers in fancy dress. Check around the walls for pictures of bygone days and obituaries of bygone characters.

East of the city centre, head along Argyle Street and Trongate to Albion

Street, turn left to the corner of Bell Street and there you’ll find Blackfriars (), a busy pub at the heart of the Merchant City, selling five beers on handpump, one from Kelburn, the others usually from Scottish breweries but sometimes from further afield. Blackfriars is named after a medieval monastery which was actually situated one street away, on the site of our last pub, Babbity Bowsters (2), which set up in this James Adam designed building almost 30 years ago, retailing decent beer, good, though pricey, food and mighty impressive patter (at least the regulars think so). Heading back to the Briggait why not call in to the Scotia Bar (3) – dating from 792 the Scotia is one of Glasgow’s oldest pubs. It features an interesting wood panelled interior and is famous on the Glasgow folk music scene, regularly hosting concerts and more impromptu jam sessions.

While in Glasgow for the festival, why not visit a few of our recommended pubs. Brian McAteer leads the way…
