dear thomas : where do you draw the
salvation / damnation
line ? ? ? ? if something has no consequences , does it really count as a sin ? ? ? ? if something goes against a commandment , but that action is not a sin , is the commandment wrong ? ? ? ? . blessings .
dear his son : there ' s no controversy about what the bible says . there ' s controversy about the way some people interpret the meaning of being born again . the bible says :
jesus answered , verily , verily , i say unto thee , except a man be born of water and of the spirit , he cannot enter into the kingdom of god .
( jn 3 , 5 ) jesus is explaining exactly how the sacrament works : god gives a specific grace at the same time the minister gives the material sign of it ( the water ) . in other words : we can make a distinction on the theoretical level between the two , the water and the grace , but because they come together we can ' t make a practical distinction . despite what the bible clearly syas , there are people who believe the
born again
process is different than that of baptism . they claim that if you were baptized while being a child , you - as an adult - have to undergo a certain process so you can be
truly born again
. that would mean god ' s grace is subjective and not objective , and that ' s where we do not agree . blessings .
hi shamman : have you noticed how the only church the devil bothers to attack is the catholic church ? ? ? ? ? well , if you haven ' t , then i guess you ' ve been living under a rock . . . . . . . . . . . if you were the devil , which one of these churches you would attack ? ? ? ? ? : a ) the catholic church , founded by jesus christ and the only one to fulfill the mt 16 , 18 prophecy b ) the anglican church , that is o . k . with
active homosexual bishops
and the like c ) some of the 33 , 000 christian
denominations
if you answered
a )
, then you are of course right . i invite you to leave aside all your silly dan - brown - like lies about the only church founded by the lord on earth and convert . blessings !
hi all ! with time i came to realize that what went on in my life was not the devil ' s work but god ' s ! . the bible tells us this :
our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they thought best ; but god disciplines us for our good , that we may share in his holiness . no discipline seems pleasant at the time , but painful . later on , however , it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it .
( heb 12 , 10 - 11 ) it turns out the lord disciplined me and it was for the better ; at the time i couldn ' t understand exactly what was going on , but everything i had to
suffer
taught me a lesson of a lifetime . for all of you who wonder what causes lots of bad things in your life , think about the consequences that situation brings to your life : if the
fruit
is good then it comes from god even if it seems rather difficult to understand . blessings .
actually , there is a reason . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . the reason is that too many ppl have been deceived by this false doctrine . too many ppl believe in some
label
of
being born again
and think that no matter what they do , they ' ll be saved because of the
born again ritual
. i think that ' s a pretty good reason . blessings .
dear steve hut : so the person doesn ' t have to have faith or repent to be baptized ? that would be news to me . otherwise , yes , i agree with your point . since jesus says you have to be born again to be saved , and christians claim to be saved , then how can you be saved without being born again ? a very inconsistent position , indeed . < { post _ snapback } > i do not claim to be
saved
. you have to persevere till the very end to be saved , that ' s what scripture says , so you have to keep being faithful from baptism to death ( till god grants you life here on earth , that is ) . this is why i say the
born again
doctrine makes no sense whatsoever ; it ' s a doctrine that has no practical consequences because no matter how you put it , you have to persevere till the end . why to believe in a doctrine that is good for nothing ? this is my point . blessings .
hi ernie : the thief was indeed baptized . there are 3 types of baptism : 1 ) baptism of water 2 ) baptism of fire 3 ) baptism of desire the thief received the baptism of desire . the grace is the very same in the 3 of them . then again , this puts you at odds with scripture since the bible talks so much about those sacraments . . . . . . . . . . . ! . this sounds like
optional
and i don ' t think the truth is optional . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . if you know something to be true , then you have to live according to that truth and not saying
it ' s all optional
. i think this idea of
optional
is yet another consequence of the
fear of commitment
thing of modern culture . ppl don ' t seem to want to be christians unless the only thing they have to do is to declare one time & one time only jesus as their lord & savior . i believe the exact opposite is true : to be a christian is to have a commitment that lasts a lifetime . blessings .
hi ! & thanx . so basically you believe that the sacrament of baptism carries no particular grace with it ? . if that ' s so , then why you think jesus emphasizes baptism and gives to it the same importance as to preaching the gospel ( mt . 28 , 19 ) ? .
hi all ! . as you may know , the majority of protestants keep at least one sacrament : baptism . sacraments ( baptism included ) provide an objective grace that does not depend on the individual ( if it would , it ' d be subjective ) so baptism is indeed being
born again
. but in protestantism , this
born again
thing teaches that you can divide among baptized ppl , those who are
born again
and those who are not ; it depends on who you ask what is being
born again
but most seem to think that it ' s an intellectual level of realization of one ' s religion ( that implies to talk more about your faith and so on ) . this kind of thought is inconsistent with the reality of baptism itself , because if you believe in the objectivity of grace , then you can ' t at the same time believe in a doctrine that preaches subjectivity of grace ( hence , separating baptism from
born againess
) . so , what you believe is being
born again
? ? ? if a person is baptized and then doing the
born again
thing . . . . . . . . . has that person being born again 3 times ? ? ? or just 2 ? ? ? ? ? ( meaning the first time you were born with the original sin , then being born again through the grace of baptism and then through the experience mentioned above ) . is the content of the born again doctrine biblical , or it ' s just a biblical name with an unbiblical content ? . if you have been baptized but not have the
born again
social distinction . . . . . . does it really matter ? . and last but not least , what ' s the value of this born again
emotional baptism
when compared to the true baptism ? . see you later ! .
dear gianour : i believe sabbath in the ot is saturday as well . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . but that changes nothing . our lord resurrected on sunday and he presided over the very first eucharist after his resurrection ( and after it was instituted ) on sunday ( lk 24 , 13 ; 30 ) and that ' s why we christians worship on sunday . besides , adventism makes no sense because it relies on the mosaic law but doesn ' t accept it as the whole 613 commandments ; they only accept the
10 commandments
so they say they live by the law but that ' s not true because they just ignore the truth on purpose .
it ' s worth the time but i ' m really tired right now so lemme sum it up : 1 ) i do not believe in mary having other children because the scripture only mentions one
son of mary
and that ' s jesus . the other ones ( jesus ' cousins ) are sons of another mary , not the same person . i will never believe in jesus '
half - brothers
until someone shows me a biblical verse where it says :
lisa , the daughter of mary the mother of jesus
or
bart , the son of mary the mother of jesus
. i ' m sure that ' s not too much to ask because that ' s how the holy scriptures identify someone ' s son or daughter . 2 ) there have been 4 immaculate persons in history : adam , eve , jesus and mary . 3 ) there are 4 persons currently alive in body and soul : enoch , elijah , mary and jesus and the 4 of them appear in revelations precisely because of that same characteristic of having a body ( enoch & elijah are the two witnesses ) .

welcome to the first installment of figs : a recurring column that looks at particular series , eras , or quirks in gaming history . if it ' s historical or interesting , figs just might cover it ! is there anything you want to see in future installments ? let
n our age of fancy 3ds and 4ds there ' s a kind of game not many people seem to pay much attention to anymore : shooters . classically referred to thusly , but colloquially over the last few years as
shmups
( short for shoot ' em ups ) , these games are products almost wholly of a bygone era : the one when
arcade - perfect
actually meant something in a home conversion and you could measure the amount of entertainment you ' d have at the mall by the size of the lump of quarters in your pocket .
but while the genre ' s been recently undergoing a somewhat innocuous revival at the hands of the hardcore in shmups lovingly placed into the shooter subsection called
bullet - hell
( a classification sure to be dealt with in a future column ) , shooters of the old - style have gone almost completely by the wayside . you see , before you could subsist solely on your pocket of quarters , ensuring that with enough money you would obtain certain and swift domination of whatever arcade game you happened to be standing in front of , a particular company set out to make you feel like you were fighting an enemy with finesse instead of brute force . a player with a single quarter had a chance as great as one with a handful . that company was konami , and those games were
to put it more truthfully , those games were gradius to some of us . in other parts of the world they were
? in actuality , all of these games are gradiuses ! or nemesises . nemises ? to be sure , the gradius series has one of the most title - shifting and confusing pedigrees in gaming history , marked by releases , name - changes , pseudo - sequels , spin - offs , conversions , and ports spanning two decades from arcades to japanese home computers to the ps2 . even
, the ( arguable ) forefather of all traditional multi - level side - scrolling shmups , is now officially part of the gradius series according to konami .
. while all these games went on to become incredibly popular , they shared something in common : all of them took place on a single , static field of play . scramble was different because of what it pioneered : it was the first multi - leveled shooter , with different
levels
seamlessly sliding past your jet ( jet , i guess , since that ' s what your ship ' s called in - game ) as the screen endlessly pushes you forward .
what scramble does that virtually no other shooter following it ( or preceeding it ) does is provide a fuel system , meaning that you get ten points for every second you stay alive since once your
fuel
runs out you die . the only way to rectify this is to shoot little fuel tanks peppering the landscape . in that way the game provides the player with options : keep your jet high and avoid the ground - launched missiles but run out of fuel , or play break - neck daredevil style and risk certain doom in the hopes of staying alive . they ' re crude , but the foundations of the gradius series can be seen here ( which is probably why konami retroactively declared it the first in the series in 2001 ) .
the real game that started it all came four years later in 1985 . gradius ( known upon its original release as nemesis in the united states and europe ) pioneered the hallmarks that would follow the series through its lifespan and influence many other outside games . chief among these is the weapons system , which allows the player to upgrade the vic viper ( the classic gradius ship ) as he or she sees fit . every
capsule
collected advances the slider one notch , with more capsules pushing the indicator to better power - ups . through this system players who value speed over all else can upgrade that first , players who want spread - fire can go for that , shields wait at the end of the bar to protect the ship from incoming fire .
another innovation here is the
option
system ( called
multiples
outside of japan ) .
options
are small orange orbs that follow your ship , serving as invulnerable dispensers of extra firepower . these compound the ship ' s attack strength and range without adding extra liability ( as in earlier shmups like capcom ' s
it ' s at around this point that the gradius chronology begins to become a little tricky to follow . konami of japan first released
to arcades there as a follow - up to gradius with a few marked changes . first of all , the scrolling bar power - up system from the original game was replaced with a simpler upgrade system where options and lasers could be acquired simply by collecting them , no capsule system necessary . in addition , the game added vertical - scrolling levels that would come between horizontal levels . salamander was also one of the first shooters to feature two - player simultaneous play with a second - player buy - in .
and the palettes and stage backgrounds were recolored to fit the game ' s new , american storyline : you are a small ship travelling through a human body to eliminate a giant tumor .
but it doesn ' t end there ! not content to let this exciting new premise pass them by , konami of japan took the american life force , re - drew the previously mechanical , robotic graphics to make them look more organic - styled , and re - instituted the original gradius power - up system ( the upgrade bar ) . this could then probably be deemed the most
definitive
version of salamander , what started as a lightly gradius - inspired experiment ending up as a game cohesively cut from the gradius cloth .
salamander , life force ( us ) , and life force ( japan ) .
after salamander , life force , and a numbered spin - off ( see inset ) , the gradius series continued on in the arcades with this true sequel . never released in north america until its inclusion on a compilation disc for the psp nearly twenty years later ,
in europe ) retained the classic gameplay of the original gradius while adding the ability to choose from four different upgrade bars at the start , each including slightly different power - up arrangements .
another addition was the choice of shield type ; players could pick either the front - shields from the first game , which absorb numerous hits from the front but leave the rest of the ship vulnerable , or a new force - field option which absorbs shots from any direction but can only take three hits before dissipating .
hit arcades in december of 1989 and was reportedly considered so difficult that it was pulled from them not too long after the new year . the chief reason for this difficulty is primarily regarded as the lack of any continue feature whatsoever ; after losing your initial lives you are forced to start over at the beginning of the game . even through arcade operator dip - switches there is no way to enable continuing , though default life allocation can be increased . the japanese release featured a special
beginners
mode that allowed the player to take on the first three levels at a decreased difficulty level—this option was removed from some other releases but offset with a slightly easier level of play .
the game did introduce a series of interesting additions , though : a new edit mode allowing the player to customize their upgrade bar makes its first appearance here , and the fourth stage of the game is a peculiar
third - person
stage where the view shifts to behind the ship in a sort of 3d mode and the player has to avoid coming into contact with the sides of the passageways .
ultimately , gradius iii is widely regarded as being so difficult that many players consider the home port for the super nes to be the superior version due to its much more forgiving difficulty and introduction of a continue system , despite two levels ( one of them the 3d level ) having been removed from the game .
perhaps still wary since the relative failure of gradius iii , konami took their sweet time before issuing another installment of the already storied gradius franchise . when it finally did come out in 1995 , it wasn ' t even
, a sequel ten years removed from the original salamander and the fifth game ( discounting the life force revamps ) in the main series thus far .
like the original salamander , salamander 2 foregos the traditional capsule upgrade system of gradius in favor of upgrade - specific icons that can be collected . options can be consumed to shoot single high - powered lasers , and collecting repeated upgrades to weapons enable temporary high - powered attacks ( lasting no more than a few seconds in duration ) .
in marked contrast and perhaps due to gradius iii ' s inordinately high difficulty level , salamander 2 is one of the few games in the series to re - start the player exactly where they died in the event of a ship being lost instead of starting them over at a level check - point ala gradius . this contrast makes salamander 2 one of the easier games in the gradius saga , but the title is still notable for its graphics , which were quite impressive for a side - scrolling shmup at the time of its release .
much like salamander 2 before it , the next official installment in the main gradius series didn ' t arrive until ten years after the closest predecessor , in this case the infamously challenging gradius iii . while gradius iv doesn ' t do anything markedly different from previous gradius games , it is notable for actively reversing some of the trends that gradius iii started , most specifically elimination of the power - up bar ' s edit mode and difficulty .
in addition , and perhaps to offset the removal of edit mode , two new preset power - up configurations were introduced to bring the total to six selectable choices . new weapons were also implemented , from fire - pillar style bomb to an armor - piercing round that penetrates multiple enemies at once . the game ' s subtitle ,
fukkatsu ,
while being a relatively unfortunate branding decision for english - speakers , translates to
revival
and signifies the series return to relevance . it is perhaps a trifle peculiar then that we don ' t see the series true revival by way of the next installment in the series for another five years .
the first main - series gradius to never get an arcade release ( officially due to a lack of time but perhaps also because of the wavering arcade scene ) also happens to be the most innovative and critically acclaimed since the inception of the series .
, produced from a joint collaboration between konami and treasure ( well - renowned for their experience with
old - school
shooting and ironically originally founded by former konami employees in 1992 ) signals a self - instituted
new direction
for the series , much more receptive towards the changing tastes of long - time shmup fans .
the game introduces for the first time player - controllable options , with a series of configurations allowing the options to be angled , aligned , or even rotated around the vic viper . it also marks the series ' first foray ( save for the relatively unknown solar assault ) into full 3d ; though the graphics are entirely rendered in 3d the perspective remains traditionally two - dimensional . this rendering method allows the camera and backgrounds to swing around the ship and push scenery in and out of perspective , offering new play experiences . in what is perhaps a bit of a throw - back to the classic gradius titles , gradius v is also exceedingly difficult , though not due to any lack of a continue system ( extra
credits
are unlocked as time is logged on the title , a nod to the old coin - drop system of arcades ) .
most interesting about gradius v , however , is its leanings towards the
new - school
bullet - hell styled shooters , with huge series of enemy bullets being tossed at the player , who is required to carefully navigate through it . to accommodate this change the vic viper ' s hitbox has been shrunk , much like other bullet - hell shooters where player craft will sometimes only register hits if enemy fire crosses a single pixel or slightly more . does this design philosophy signal a new direction for the future of the gradius series ?
one thing is certain : despite being one of the original two - dimensional shoot - em - ups with ancestry running all the way back to 1981 , gradius is poised to remain just as relevant and entertaining as it was all the way back then . hopefully konami ensures that there will always be a niche carved out for the gamers that remember the gradius series fondly ( and with any luck , future installments will come to pass with far less confusing name changes ) .
, a vertically - oriented driving game released in 1984 . in this game you have to drive over blinking
fuel cars
to refill your gauge ; crash too much and you ' re empty just like your pockets after this one gets its delightful fangs in .
is almost ten times as infuriating as its buddy . you control a helicopter this time , your sole goal being ( according to the game ' s attract screen ) to
invade the base and carry away booty .
unlike scramble , which starts out simple and works the challenge in as you progress through the levels , super cobra pours it on from the start with tight passageways , gun turrets , and relentlessly quick enemy missiles . of quaint note is the fact that the game has no relation to the eventual nes
a recognizable recurring theme to any long - time gradius fan is definitely those weird moai heads ; nearly every gradius features a level where you have to destroy them as they shoot annoying multi - colored rings at the poor vic viper . in fact , the little moai head continues to make its way secretly into konami games even to this day (
contains one hidden in a vent . ) reportedly the fixation comes from a konami staff member who was working on the original gradius ; his forehead was evidently flat and angled like a moai and he earned the nickname
moai
( and recognition in konami ' s games ever since ) .
( with a 2 , not a ii ) was released in 1987 exclusively for the japanese msx home computer . not considered a true sequel , the player controls a ship called
metalion
as opposed to the traditional gradius vic viper .
served as a pseudo - sequel to the main - series gradius ii . it was released in europe as
, making us really wonder how many different variations can possibly exist on the names gradius and nemesis and roman versus arabic numerals .
though many gradius games have been ported to home systems , occasionally they do not faithfully represent their arcade originals . for example , the nes version of life force confusingly is a sort of hybrid between the arcade life force and the original salamander , with certain levels removed to make way for new content . gradius iii for the super nes features an easier difficulty than the arcade version , strips the third - person behind - the - ship level , and adds a new boss .
for the game boy , which confusingly is not a port of the original nemesis / gradius , but instead an amalgamation of gradius and gradius 2 ( the msx spinoff ) . an even more ridiculous piece of trivia is that it was later ported and released on the game boy color in
a quaint curiosity : many konami arcade games of the gradius era have factory - set default high scores of 57300 . in addition to being acceptably challenging marks to reach by players , the
573
can be seen as a japanese play on letters , with go ( meaning five ) , na ( for nana , meaning seven ) , and mi ( an abbreviated form of mitsu , for
third
) making an interesting way of putting
konami
( or something like it ) at the top of every fresh new game .
in 1991 for the little handheld that couldâ€”it broke with tradition by including very few of the traditional gradius thematic staples of stage design or music . it was released in japan as
, despite being not only not a
nemesis
game but also not at all related to gradius ii ( or gradius 2 , for that matter ) . and the naming and numbering fun continues . . .
, a straight - to - the - playstation gradius title in 1997 . incorporating multiple ship selection , new weapon configurations , and seven scalable difficulty settings , gradius gaiden is highly regarded as one of the better gradius titles . though not initially released in north america , it eventually found a home on the psp ' s
. featuring a third - person perspective passively reminiscent of the 3d level from gradius iii , the spin - off was never officially branded a gradius title but borrowed its power - up meter and allowed selection of the vic viper . the title has never been released for any home consoles and remaining arcade cabinets are exceedingly rare .
. using the same basic gameplay structure but parodying their own
serious
titles , the parodious games feature scantily clad women as bosses , judicious uses of moai heads , and main characters riding spread eagle on an assortment of traditional gradius ships including the vic viper .

what was the inspiration for starting the brewery ? we sold the tipsy toad brewpubs in 1996 and due to overstretching ourselves financially and some underhand moves from our business partners we walked away from the jersey business penniless . fortunately my family and i have always had a great passion for surfing , having competed when i was younger , and so on my fortieth birthday we decided to move to cornwall with our four children and our cat called toad , do lots of surfing and look for the best place to start brewing again , setting up our new business again from nothing : skinner’s brewery . truro was always our first choice , it’s such a beautiful city and once we’d found a perfect spot by the river we didn’t look back and cornwall quickly became our home and somewhere we all fell in love with .

i vote for wychwood brewery . good products available everywhere ! i particularly like their seasonal specials especially dunkel fester , dry neck and bah humbug .
throughout these years my passion for ale did not subside and i achieved my long time ambition of opening my first brewpub in jersey , the star and tipsy toad brewery , in 1992 . i had attended my first brewing course where i experienced my first brew at pitfield brewery in shoreditch with martin kemp and rob jones , who were known then as the yeastie boys – rob went on to create the superb dark star brewery in brighton .

what was your first drink and where were you when you had it ? bass was my first cask ale that i tasted , as it was the only ale you could get in jersey when i was growing up . in those days it was all keg beers apart from bass . i remember also having sips of my dad’s double diamond when i was little and loving the bitterness that the hops gave you , even then .
stonehouse brewery gets my vote every time ; sometimes several times a week ! a full range of excellent beers to suite all tastes and always well produced . shane , alison & their team run an excellent bar there and early doors beer on a sunny friday evening surrounded by friends is always looked forward to . good luck , you deserve to win , and thank you for the pleasure you bring .
many breweries are experimenting with adding unusual flavours to their beers . are there any you think work well together and are there any you would like to try ? this isn’t really a new trend - it’s been going on for years . i think some of the belgium beers i’ve tasted have amazing complex flavours . i love some of the flavours you can produce from using fruit , heather , honey , wild yeast and other natural ingredients but i don’t like any beers using synthetic flavourings .
now in their 11th year , arbor ales have been at the heart of bristol’s thriving craft beer scene since 2007 . their focus has always been making drinkable and flavoursome beers of all kinds . to date , they’ve created over 300 different brews ( of which several have become successful regulars ) and “too many one - offs to remember” . their flagship favourite is yakima valley , an american ipa , while among their more unusual brews is “breakfast stout” ; a coffee , chocolate and oatmeal concoction .
jen is happiest with a pen in her hand , whether that’s at work ( as a copywriter for tripadvisor rentals ) or in her spare time scribbling stories for her adorable nephews . she feels most at home by the sea or in the lake district , where she can stumble upon a country pub , chat to the locals and sample any real ale on offer . at the weekends , you’ll most likely find her ringing church bells ( no , not a joke ) or mooching around a museum .
it’s said , somewhere way down south , in a cove between st ives and padstow , you’ll find a perfect beach , where you can spend hazy , lazy summer days lying in the warm sun with good friends and not a care in the world . and , as the sun begins to sink into the sea , the only thing that could make life any better would be a glass of cool , hop - laden pale ale . this is the place and the moment that lushingtons was brewed for .
where do you see , or hope to see , the brewery in 5 years time ? we are expanding all the time and constantly re - investing – there are some exciting opportunities in every direction , especially with our bottled and packaged beers . we have just opened a brand new bottling and packaging facility which has allowed us to be total masters of our own destiny and double our production . we are starting to look at export as well , which really does open up so many opportunities .
looking ahead , what new things can we expect from skinners over the coming months ? we have our stout pennycomequick out in october in bottle and then possibly keg . it has had great success in cask , winning lots of competitions and building up a large following . considering how dark it is , it really does drink so light and the hops we are using gives the stout it’s wonderful subtle fruity flavours . we can’t wait to try it in bottle , which it will be in for the first time this year . we have plans to create a saison sometime in the future but this is dependent on our capacity – watch this space !

closed and converted into a shop . a real loss because it offered something different to the usual tourist pubs in the town .
still a decent selection of skinners and sharps beers . live music regularly on the menu and tends to miss out on a lot of the alco - pop crowd . well worth a look

i will be traveling to cornwall on 26 july and will be staying 5 days . i wondered if i stayed in truro would it be possible iravel by public transport to some of the other towns . i am interested in pretty towns and interesting museums or historical buildings . i have previously visited padstow and port hardy . i have found it is only 20 minutes by bus to st agnes .
it is possible depending on where you want to go . buses in cornwall aren ' t always frequent or reliable but truro is probably the best base for getting around by bus . you can always get the train too which goes up through the . . .
it is possible depending on where you want to go . buses in cornwall aren ' t always frequent or reliable but truro is probably the best base for getting around by bus . you can always get the train too which goes up through the county towards bodmin and onwards ( good to stop and walk to lanhydrock house ) or down towards st ives and penzance . if you want to go somewhere off the beaten track ( places such as polkerris or menabilly for example ) you ' d honestly be better of hiring a car and getting a good sat nav ! there is a lot of cornwall which isn ' t really accessible by bus and that would be my best suggestion for making sure you get to see whatever you like . if you want to look at buses the cornish one is called first group and shows the routes . to get to smaller places you might be looking at connections too . happy to advise if you had any particular places in mind : )

are you curious to know about the people behind the beers you buy ? or perhaps you want to know what inspires brewers to brew and beer bloggers to blog ? our “q & a” posts are a light hearted way of getting to know people working in , and connected to , the beer and alcohol industry .
when did your love affair with beer begin ? i was born in jersey , my parents were prominent publicans and hoteliers there and i lived and grew up in pubs . i moved to london in my late teens / early twenties to further my career in the pub trade , working for ind coope ( allied breweries ) first as an office boy and then as a managed house stocktaker , looking after pubs in soho and the city .
it was then that i first fell in love with the city pubs , their atmosphere and ales and also the firkin chain of brewpubs , which had an early influence on what i wanted to do in the future . i also loved the early camra beer festivals at alexandra palace which were great fun .
i moved back to jersey in 1979 when my dad passed away to run the family pub , and then for the next 27 years began a successful career running some of the best and busiest pubs in jersey , including setting up two brewpubs . during that time i became the founding chairman of the british institute of inn - keeping channel islands , setting up many licensed trade training programs along the way .
we see that your bottle labelling has been revamped . can you tell us about the labelling – where does the inspiration come from ? we have always loved cornish folklore and all our original beers were and still are named after cornish folklore characters . betty stogs is still our best selling beer by far . the last two beers created in our range lushingtons and porthleven have been named after surfing spots in cornwall with spectacular waves , appealing to a young audience – these beers are very pale in colour and by using some spectacular american hops we have created the most refreshing zingy citrusy beers you can imagine . they also both won siba awards this year in the golden ale category .
we have always used illustration as part of our style and design and with this in mind we decided to use a different artist for each beer brand . for continuity and provenance betty stogs was redesigned by her original artist , the extremely talented nick beringer .
what have you found to be the hardest thing to master when learning to brew ? consistency is something we strive for with every pint and certainly takes years of practice and dedication .
what do you think makes a great beer ? balance , exciting your taste buds , condition , consistency and being able to drink more than one pint .
what drink can you no longer face having had one too many ? armagnac – hate the stuff .
what is the silliest thing you’ve done whilst drunk ? in my youth i played water polo for jersey and on one occasion returning on the ferry , victorious from our annual grudge match against guernsey . we had been celebrating in the bar all the way home and just as the ferry was being docked in the jersey harbour the whole team decided to jump off the back of the ferry ( three stories high ) , fully clothed and swim to shore making our escape in different directions . the police were called and we were rounded up and arrested in “great escape” style , most of us were found in various pubs around the harbour , given away by the puddle of water surrounding us while we stood at the bar . luckily we all survived the jump and apart from a serious telling off from the police and making the front page of the local newspaper we were not charged and lived to beat guernsey another day .
