FAREWELL EMIL

File 689A sad start to Fishtales this month as we farewell another of our beloved staff members in the handsome Swede Emil. Saddest of all are the female population of Clancys as he was a most attractive man with his fine crop of Scandinavian hair,a collection of sweet tattoos and a smile that would make any gal swoon. A great worker and a lovely bloke we wish Emil all the best on his travels around the globe and no longer will he have to sit through our taunts about Roxette,Abba,Meatballs and the Chef from the Muppets.

BEER OF THE MONTH

File 690One of our favourites here at Clancys the mighty Nail Stout is back just in time for winter. Brother to the ever popular Nail Pale this award winning brew is only available for a limited time so come on in and hammer down a Nail. Here are the stats that matter.

Nail Stout won the 2008 Cryer Malt Perth Royal Beer Show best WA beer and 2008 Sydney Royal Beer Competition best stout. Nail Stout is a oatmeal stout with 6% alcohol. Originally when brewed in 2002 it was nitrogenated (poured through a creamer). Its alcohol content was reduced from 6% to 5.2% in 2003 before returning to the original 6%. Nail Stout is now keg conditioned like all nail beers. The dark malts provide a coffee chocolate sweetness on the front of the palette, which is balanced with Golding’s hop bitterness on the back of the mouth. Rolled oats provide a smooth medium body. The flavour changes down the glass.

TELLY FULL OF TRIPE

File 691Due to our long relationship with the chaps from the Perth Tripe Club,TV station SBS has chosen Clancys Fremantle to shoot a documentary on the club on the 15th of this month.Our team of chefs have been dishing up a Tripe inspired menu for many years and always polls a huge score when it comes time to judge the various meals. So this and the fact we are the greatest pub on earth has led SBS to choose us to be broadcasted nationally for the world to see. A very nervous chef ashley has begun sweating on his impending interview as he hopes it will lead to a gig on ready, steady, cook.
