UK Weekend Beerage

got caught behind at work
so spent the twenty five minutes wait in port street
all price boards blank for repainting
didn't question for a second
my thoughts with CwrwAmByth ordered pint of Tiny Rebel's XPLA undoubtedly good thirst quenching stuff but as I was just yesterday defending seemingly high beer prices in 'craft' oriented outlets the £4 pint bit a little.
Downed pint looked at time fifteen minutes till bus.
Enquired about Black Jack Beers Full House DIPA but at £4 for a half from a brewery I could go out and spit on the 7% brew didn't appeal lol.

Heading to bus stop l, stuck head in spoons
grabbed half of Green Flash's Citra Session IPA
for one four zero
now on bus recounting this tale.

P.S. I do realise I have turned into grandpa Simpson

 

unfortunately not
Port Street Beer Engine in Manchester city centre

 

Blimey!
I was at the right place at the right time?

 

Tower brewery Salt's Burton Ale

The bottle was 99p from Aldi

I've said it before but I'll say it again
Cheap & nasty beer is cheap & nasty
well more flavourless.
Took a sip, not one bit of flavour
downed half a pint hardly noticed it or tasted it
listening to Refuse-Resist by Sepultura & to quote them
'What is this shit?'

 

Troubadour Westkust
an unusual but very enjoyable dark beer that seems to give a different taste aspect with each mouthful

 

Day before pay day so this one bottle was all I could afford
but I work Sat-Wednesday so no beer tonight just would be ultra sucky
managed to scrape together money for one bottle of Cheshire Brewhouse's A Little Lupy Simcoe


A very lemony & honey start that becomes bitter then increasingly bitter
I like, I like a lot.
(And I'm not in anyway influenced by being friends with the proprietor lol)

 

Duvel
What else are you going to get at 3AM

 

Yeah I saw them on offer for a quid a piece when doing a online shop but I had just spent my beer pocket money
also grabbed a swift half at 'spoons
well two halves
of the same beer
in a pint glass,
Loddon's Bamboozle, nice pint of cask, nice balance of malt & hops.

 

It's channel Five so here's my prediction
**Narrator**
'Ever since Brewdog brought gobshitting to the British beer industry 'Craft Beer' drinkers around the country have been thirsting for foreign beer styles from America, Belgium & the Isle of Man.
Marston's has been working together with Tescos to bring these style to the masses'
**Presenter** 'I'm no beer expert but I do sometimes take a break from out of date cans of Skol
& treat myself to a pint of Stella, is that the type of beer we are talking about?'
