UK Weekend Beerage

The beer was just like the video - a awesome experience unmatched by anything!

I'm now having a Bass. For the first time....

 

Bet it's shite.


I've destroyed four bottles of wine between two. should have waited till tomorrow.

 

Tonight I'll be drinking 4 month old Odell IPA and St Lupulin.

Total first world problems.

 

Castle Rock's Elsie Mo
William Bros' Hipsway

Hipsway is fruity in a subtle way (cold lagered on strawberries apparently).

 

I'd bet London to a brick on that the IPA stood up better than the St Lupulin.

 

Anderson Valley's Hop Ottin' IPA

 

Had a bit of a sore head this morning from overdoing it on the Hobgoblin. Fun at the time though.

 

Fuller London Porter and London Pride. First time ever I've seen them locally and it makes me happy.

 

Wharfebank's Tether - tasty
Siren's Half Mast QIPA - delicious

 

Thornbridge's Thorny Goat. A mocha porter - quality.

 

Aiming for a Tempest Marmalade on Toast with tonight's roast chicken.

 

That Tempest brew is in Glug in the Toon, didn't fancy the shlep yesterday.
Just looked again and it's gone!
It's Beavertown Blood Orange all over again.

 

Suppliers don't often want to take back unwanted bottles, they have been out of their supervision for a while and so they wouldn't want to sell them on.
I got half a dozen rather nice bottles of 1995 Bordeaux this way; I had ordered sparkling Saumur from the Wine Society! Their mistake, my gain.

 

The Kernel Export Stout London 1890. As coffee forward as any coffee brew I've had, me thinks.

 

I've always thought the best chocolate or coffee tasting stouts are ones that don't have any actual coffee or chocolate in them
