    Doh! See! They can't even spell the brewery's name correctly!!!

    :flushed:

    Picked up a 2-pint Holsten stein from a charity shop yesterday - currently drinking a bomber of Punk out of it. It's amazing!

    Though I may need to upgrade my coasters....

    Had to go through to Glasgow tonight to pick up my missus and her pal who had been to the Commonwealth Games. Decided to pick up a few beers in the many specialist shops in the West End. Have had;
    Saison Dupont - decent enough, but a bit too bitter for me.
    Andechs Doppelbock Dunkel - Hearty Dunkel, much more my style.
    Sierra Nevada Kellerweisse - Not had nearly enough beers from this brewery...great.
    Drygate Apple Ale - Fresh, crisp apple flavours from this beer, but nowhere near as sweet as cider.

    Charity shops are great for glasses. I got an Ardbeg whisky tasting glass for 50p the other day! Not to mention an old (60s-ish maybe) Shepherd Neame framed poster.

    Been drinking (among other things) in the south west. My favourite beers from this trip are Skinner's Betty Stoggs and Hall & Woodhouse Tanglefoot. Both hit the spot admirably.

    Sharing @jazzyjeff13 's suffering by tasting a Cuvana

    calling it a beer is false advertising

    Cairngorm Black Gold, been sitting in the cellar since Sheffield BeerX, not been a fan of Cairngorm after sampling at least 4 different beers several years back which were all laden with diacetyl. But this I enjoyed.

    If the beer was only half as good as the label
    but there wasn't much going on inside that bottle

    Picked up what will be my 899th beer whilst on way home from work for my 'weekend'
    as my bust stop near B&M's so thought give Hop Bomb one last look
    and it was in :slight_smile: some grabby grab grab
    and will finish an unbearably hot day with lots of hops (beers)

    Hop Bomb, Jumping Frog, Albuquerque
    takes me back to when Manc beers were sharp bitter affairs
    Boddies & Holts when they had real taste

    Cromarty Red Rocker
    a Rye hop ale
    gives a liquorice root taste
    I love it
    could see it being an acquired taste though

    Love the Mallinson's, bottled conditioned & very tasty

    Right let's see if these Beer Kitchen are any good
    India Pale Ale seems a good place to start

    It isn't terrible and two steps ahead of super market fodder
    but not big craft game IMHO
    worth trying though to compare notes
