BREWING UP A GREAT SUCCESS

The Brasserie du Quercorb in Puivert hosted the most recent recital of favourite sea shanties by the AudeShantyMen. The tap room there provided an atmospheric and acoustically excellent setting for an enthusiastic performance that was book-ended by two Rugby World Cup quarter final matches. Not that it needed the appearance of Ireland in the first match for the sales of the brewery's own superior stout "Tres Ficela" on draught to be sampled and appreciated by many. Black as jade, a true Irish stout! Rich in malt with hints of coffee & bitter chocolate to finish. YUM With two IPA draught beers also available and a collection of classic bottled beers the afternoon proceeded well despite the disappointing results in the rugby for the northern hemisphere. Some carry outs were required to help "celebrate" the results. The song list chosen proved very popular with many well known rousing choruses bringing the performance to a crescendo. Many thanks to Paul and Jayne for their support and hospitality - we hope to see you again very soon and good luck with your ventures.

A THIRST FOR SHANTY The AudeShantyMen will be appearing at the Brasserie du Quercorb at 16h00 on Sunday 18 October where you will be able to listen to (and join in) great music while enjoying a choice of the best Bière Artisanale de Luxe. Brasserie du Quercorb is a family owned craft brewery based deep in Cathar country in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Their passion is for great tasting beer. Liquid perfection with a meticulous finish! Each of their recipes has a contemporary twist, but also a deep respect for tradition. They believe that the best tasting beers are natural and unfiltered. Nature knows best. The brasserie will also be screening the two Rugby World Cup quarter finals being played that afternoon. So come along - rugby, beer, singing - what more could you want?
