I wish I enjoyed this a bit more. I’m just spoilt by Bundaberg ginger beer. Why does it seem so hard for something to be slightly alcoholic yet as good as Bundaberg?

Wilde Gluten Free Pale Ale
I have a number of friends who are gluten intolerant, so I’ve taken one from the team and grabbed a few gluten free beers available locally to try. The Wilde Gluten Free Pale Ale wasn’t bad, and although does have that distinctive taste of a gluten free beer, certainly wasn’t offputting. I’d put this around what’ you’d expect from a more mass produced pale ale.

New Jenkins Bazaar plugin release
I’ve just uploaded version 1.20 of the Bazaar plugin for Jenkins. This release is based on feedback from users and our experiences at Percona.
- Do a lightweight checkout instead of a heavyweight checkout (if “Checkout” is enabled)
- Fix bug: lightweight checkout “update” would always fail as bzr update didn’t accept a repository argument. Switch to using bzr update followed by bzr switch. This should massively improve performance for those not doing a full branch.
- Remove “Clean Branch” advanced option (replaced with “Clean Tree” option)
- Add a “Clean Tree” advanced option. This will run “bzr clean-tree –quiet –ignored –unknown –detritus”, preserving the .bzr directory but doing the equivalent of wiping the workspace (starting with a fresh slate). This should massively improve performance for projects that do not have a clean build.
- Clarify that Loggerhead is the repository browser used by Launchpad, and have a complete example of how to configure it.
McEwan’s Export
Tasty, not especially special, and does feel like something that’s more mass produced than much of the beer I consume (can that be a valid description?). That being said, this cold Melbournian enjoyed it.
