    Rounding off the weekend with Nøgne Ø's Pale ale, followed by Ramblers (a collaborative DIPA from Gipsy Hill & Deya). Delicious hops....

    Stupid fu@king sober-October is over with. I'll never get that month of drinking back. Celebrated (actually before the weekend on 2 nov) with a trip to Cask Pub and Kitchen to have Evil Twin/Westbrook Imperial Mexican Biscotti Cake Break. I also had Dark Star Green Hopped IPA. Discovered this one last year after @CwrwAmByth mentioned it in a post. This year's version is a bit less hazy, but just as good.
    I'd say what I'm drinking today, but I bought some extra to go out with the Secret Santas, so mums the word. Let's just say there is a lot of barrel-aged stuff in the fridge.

    Moor Destination F
    Lervig/Oud Beersel Black Acid
    Arbor Goo Goo G'Joob. American Amber Ale
    Wiper and True Phantasmagoria. Later Song

    No duffers in the pack but standout by a long way Wiper and True Phantasmagoria. This was their tank beer from their recently opened taphouse and is fantastic. A hazy juicy banger utilising a new yeast strain from White Labs, London Fog, which is 6.7% but drank like below 4%. Could easily of gone for one of their stables but first type of this style brewed by them and they have absolutely nailed it.

    Just back from Prague and the Pilsner in U Zlatha Tygra was phenomenal. £1.45 a pop too.

    I was away at the weekend for the Lewes bonfire celebrations and picked up some Harveys brews to bring home with me. I can still smell the smoke....

    Just finish a Hooky Blonde and now on Brewdog's Dead Pony.

    realising I've managed to overcome the temptation of opening them when at home on big beers sessions and have managed to age four strong beers for more than over a year
    its time to celebrate with four other ales.
    Let them hopefully stand for another 14 have them for my 45th birthday,

    Tonight it's reconciliation with it being Remembrance Sunday
    2 German Biers Ayinger Altbairisch Dunkel & Ayinger Ur-Weisse
    & 2 English Stouts Wierd Beard's Night of the Ryeclops & Pig & Porter Gothic RIS
    Lest we forget

    Visited Moor brewery yesterday and picked up a 6 pack myself. Speaking to the bar manager he said that this one was his favourite, apart from Rebirth of course. Looks a really good set, Rebirth was really nice on cask and keg.
