Here and There
Ol' Erebus pours rich mahogany with aromas of chocolate and coffee. The coffee continues in the flavour accompanied by honey and a hint of pepper.
Smoked chicken wings, Irish stew, Gruyère, and roasted nuts.
During an ill-fated exploration in unnavigated sections of the Canadian Arctic, The HMS Erebus became icebound. The crew, having depleted their paltry supply of infected canned food, were forced to abandon the ship and attempt the overland trek south.
This did not end well.
The crew, totalling about 130 men, died from a variety of causes including hypothermia, scurvy, and starvation. There is even evidence to suggest that they resorted to the unthinkable for sustenance.
We are chafed that this beer write up is so dismal and bleak, but if the crew of the HMS Erebus had only supplied the ship with a few barrels of a decent porter, this whole mess could have been avoided.
