New Developments

Since 2003, the Innis and Gunn brewery have been producing a range of oaked beers matured in Bourbon barrels. Inspired by US craft brewers, Fraserburgh's self-styled punk brewers Brewdog produce a varied range of bottled and keg beers. They have attracted considerable attention and controversy for rejecting the real ale format, and for the strength of their beers. After being criticised for brewing an 18.2% ABV beer, they responded with as series of beers up to 55% ABV.

Famous quotes containing the word developments:

    The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.
    C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)

    I don’t wanna live in a city where the only cultural advantage is that you can make a right turn on a red light.
    Freedom from labor itself is not new; it once belonged among the most firmly established privileges of the few. In this instance, it seems as though scientific progress and technical developments had been only taken advantage of to achieve something about which all former ages dreamed but which none had been able to realize.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
