Gold Medal Ales are produced monthly in recognition of some of the ’greats’ of history. This month’s story :-
In January 1936, John Logie Baird demonstrated a working television to the Royal Institution and by 1932 the BBC was using his system for the world’s first public service.
The pictures were received on mass produced TV sets made by the Baird Company. But by 1937 Marconi had developed a different improved system and Bairds was dropped.
However he continued his research on colour and 3D TV, only to die at an early age in 1946 before he could witness the full impact of his vision on the modern world.

Cask: hand pulled in The Crown Inn, Oakengates on 7th Feb 2012. Clear, lightish amber body: white foaming head that lasted the course and gave some good lacing. The nose was floral and fruity. The taste was interesting: a pleasant mix of flavours. Digestive biscuit maltiness with mild citrusy hops all jumbled together with a blob of yeastiness. I’ve struggled with some Burton Bridge beers over the years but this one seemed fine.
