UK Weekend Beerage

I was flabbergasted when the missus said they were £1.99 each
would be great if they could gert more variety or even bring in another U.S. craft
I'm happy anyhow

and it means I have 15 untried beers (of varying quality) tow try over my two days off work.

 

Well back home need to eat so big plate well down pork sausage (my fave beer food)
Back to the bottom of the beer ladder
Pedigree New World Pale Ale

CHRIST ON A BIKE! A bottle of Marston's that delivers hop taste :O
quite nice exotic fruit flavour actually
**Checks pulse & checks not dreaming**

 

Returning to the Mozza's Signature in order to find a dull ale to build from
Golden Ale brewed by Black sheep which IMHO gave us the kind of charge from corporate run Theakston's
as Blair & the NU-Labour lot did from the Tories

Again not terrible
It's a **shudders** golden ale so okay its not like best bitter this time
but theres a dash of hops and a hint of malt and a slight bitter finish

Hmmmm I've had worse

 

Oh let's try the penultimate Morrison's Signature beer before resorting to expensive specialist beer shop bottles

Amber Ale also brewed by Black Sheep
I won't have to wash my glass out because of worry of cross taste contamination
(oh come on if Marston's can put some flavour in a bottle)
Tinny tasting one dimensional bitter
well it looks nice

 

I might as well finish the Morrison's beer
IPA by Marston's
and it's hoppy and bitter and all together not bad

So basically the beers are worth a try, don't expect too much and just don't buy the golden ale

 

Finishing the night with a spec beer shop bomber
The Bruery Rugbrod
sour and rye with other elements fighting on the tongue
(and cleaning the floor as it unintentionally recreated a formula one podium)
it's also a Danish beer style & it's nice to associate Danish beer
with something other than brewery take overs & destroyed British beer making heritage.

 

It is fantastic when a brewer interacts with it's drinkers
it shows an interest and a love of beer not just a big business machine
so you have won my admiration and I raise my glass to you.
I'll drink my Sixpoint cans on Independence day and wish you a happy fourth of July.

 

what was the Mallard like
coz between the Wold Gold & Anglers Reward there wasn't even half a decent beer.

That Black pearl mind you, one of the best ordinary Stouts I've had in a while.

 

Well when you think how vastly better Thornbridge are on cask
and how they pride themselves on not filtering & pasteurising (though if they'd just give bottle conditioning a go)

 

Drinking competition with the toughest competitor
ME! lol
Sharp's Spiced Red
not my bag but better than Rodenbach

 

I've had slightly more than 5 units tonight therefore will die, goodbye forever lmao.
