Whitbread Louis Pasteur Ale

Only 100 bottles of this were ever made.

My question is does anyone know what alcohol percentage this is?

The trouble with drinking rare beers is finding out the details about them...

Thanks in advance,
Chaos.

I've not heard of it before. Give us your tasting notes when you sample it. I have several fairly rare beers in my stock. I did an inventory awhile back but I recently found a couple of boxes with the really rare stuff when I was sorting through my breweriana collection. I wondered where I had lost them.

Please don't spam the board with the same question. Posting it in one forum will allow a better response from the members.

I'm sorry but I did not consider two areas spamming: the Collector's Corner might have the specialist knowledge to answer the question but the general area has much more traffic...

Apologies,
Paul.

you might have noticed that when you log in, there's a link to read all the new posts. That's what everyone does. So, when you post to one forum, everyone will see it and be able to respond. Also, later people can search for info and find ONE thread that contains the whole discusion of the topic.

I have no idea of the group demographics - I saw that button but could not be sure that people who read one section necessarily read the other...

All of the people I know who read this site don't read all of the sections; I know I don't.

As I said before, I considered the two most relevant sections a happy compromise to try to get an answer as expeditiously as possible, sorry!

I am happy to have a post in one of the threads pointing to the other; that will solve that issue.

I went ahead and closed the other thread - believe me, everyone is reading this post (or at least seeing it as an option). We'll find your information for you one way or another. No stress, dude! :)

Someone who has this beer and is a member of a very large beer collecting organisation in the UK got back to me...

Thanks anyway, everyone,
Chaos.

[chazwicke]

You should let us know what organization that is. I'd be interested in learning more about a beer collecting organization. Was it Oxford Bottled Beer Database? They have a decent chat board too. I used to post there more frequently

This fine fellow is associated with several reputable beer/brewing related organisations.

I'll let his webpage speak for itself: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/michael.peterson/

Cheers,

Nice site. Thanks! I have some English commorative beers dating back as far as 1977.
