Jonathan Nel and his Three Skulls

-

Jonathan Nel is the mastermind behind the works at The Three Skulls Brewery. Jonathan worked at SAB for Six years so he is no stranger to the world of beer and all the workings around it, especially when it came to his Brand and his Logo. He started from a very basic background in brewing by starting with a DIY homebrew Coopers kit that he got for Christmas and then went on to a BIAB (Brew in a bag). Now he owns, runs, cleans and restocks his one man show brewery.




The Blonde Ale, Better known as Gravedigger, is a very fruity and flavourful, almost like a Belgian styled ale. it sits at a respectable 4.5% and this is great because it gives you more time and more beers to really enjoy and grasp the flavour of the beer and appreciate the beer more. I found this beer very similar to a witbier or weissbier but its flavours work better than you could ever imagine. This beer will definitely open your minds. The beer has a very nice mouth feel, the only way to describe it is, firm, but gentle. The tastes and notes do linger a little longer than normal which I find is beautiful and gives the beer a uniqueness. overall i really "Dig" this beer. (Pun intended) Three Skulls Brewery has two beers (one beer short of coincidence).

I unfortunately haven't had the privilege yet of tasting the Banshee, a lovely Irish Read ale. But I have the highest of hopes for this beer. luckily for us normal folk the Gravedigger has been bottled and is being stoked in all decent and reliable bottle stores, the definite stockist would be Bootleggers in Fourways. Jonathan did say they had tweaked the labels making sure all the necessary information was on it and they are doing some really cool promo work in the stores for the launch. The beers will be sold in a heavenly 12 pack so more craft for your drinking pleasure. unfortunately the site for three skulls is a bit buggy at the moment because of the biggest knobs in the universe, hackers, worked their Douche-baggery, but Jonathan did say he is working hard to get the site back up and running but with beer like his I don't blame him if it takes longer!

Give the sight a visit and definitely get your hands on these beers!! www.threeskulls.co.za

The PDP wired Xbox one controller

-

Have you ever played a certain type of game and thought; “Man, this would be so much better with a controller?” Good, then keep reading. As someone that has always grown up playing on a PlayStation since their original models, all the way down to the PS4, adjusting to a new remote is always challenging. I was never really against the idea of an Xbox but just preferred PlayStation because of tradition I guess. This love and tradition started all thanks to my older brother who bought me a PS1 when they came out. So in a sense, you could say he started my love for gaming. (Tanks Max)   At some point, I changed over to PC but still kept the PlayStation around for when friends were over. Now that I game, virtually, solely on a PC I found it strange using a controller but some games are undeniably more comfortable on a controller. So, I decided to invest in a PDP Xbox one wired controller. Considering it only sets you back roughly R600 from the usual online tech retailers, I was wi

Blue Dorito crusted Jalapeno Poppers

Ingredients: The desired quantity of Jalapeños A small bowl of water 1 cup of milk 1 – 2 cups of flour 1 bag of blue Doritos (or any other desired chips) 2-3 slices of bread (4 if making a lot of poppers) or 1 to 2 cups breadcrumbs 1 cup grated cheddar or mozzarella Grated parmesan (optional) 1 tub of either cream cheese or thickish chip dip 1 tablespoon of bacon bits (optional) 1 tablespoon of Chives or spring onion finely cut Salt and pepper to taste Oil for shallow or deep frying Deep pan/pot for deep frying Method:   Halve and deseed the jalapeños. (The seeds can be kept and added into cheese mix later to add extra spice). I prefer cutting the tops off a little way down from the stem and then using the back/handle of a teaspoon to scrape the seeds out, but this does make them more difficult to fill with the cheese mix, unless you have a thickish syringe or a nozzle for a piping bag or tube that will fit in the chili. Make sure yo

Gilded words

Let the world be rubber  And you be the glue I'll bounce off others and stick to you Catch you when you fall Pick you up again in the winter Even tend to your nasty splinters I'll be the one that gathers your rosebuds in spring And be your cooling shade in the summer. And when  Sticks and stones (Against you) Will crack and splinter, And words for your beauty will never leave me  Remember ravishing is what you are, As I am ravenous  (How do I know)  Because it takes poetry To know poetry And that is just what you are. Poetry in motion 🖤 ~ Oskar Roux @WizardOfOz013 on twitter @Ozymandias13 on instagram
