    Last beer was nice in a dull sort of way
    say will follow suite with a bottle of Jenning's Cumberland
    and continue the build up to the (hopefully) wow! beer of the night, which I think I will have next.

    Wow, this thing is just... wow. Definitely different. Nice to have a sort of herbal taste that differs from the usual Christmas beer "we've just stuck mulling spice in this bitter".

    Spice in Bitter does not work with flavouring
    a good spiced ale though, usually a bit boozy.
    Talking of think I'll have last years Wincle Wassale for this Christmas.

    My local Tesco has stopped ordering :slight_frown:
    and I keep having a hankering for it.

    Celt Ogham Ash. A fancy looking bottle with a 10.5% "Russian Imperial Porter" inside. So yeah, it's a Russian Imperial Stout.

    This thing isn't great. Too much booze. Perhaps some age.

    The last beer of a similar nature I had to this was BD's Libertine which I fucking hated

    All that is gone now, superb beer, great blend of flavours

    I had a couple of bottles, real good stuff.

    Well I might as well open that BD Hardcore.

    Un-Human Cannonball. It's nice but, as has already been stated, not great. Like a boozier Human Cannonball with no noticeable increase in hop presence.

    Oh well.

    Maybe I shouldn't worry too much about hunting it then....

    Finishing off the evening with Fullers ESB.

    No, you really shouldn't.

    No. Probably means that'll be Tesco wide. Will need to stock up. Thanks for the tip Bevis but sorry for your loss.

    Right. Cleared the shelf but left a single bottle as some of offering to beer karma. Ended up getting the BB dated 30/10/13 Torpedo which is noticeably maltier and less hoppy than the 19/11/13 which Tesco more recently carried. Watch out folks.

    More bottled dark mild with Ilkley Black
    Okay but once again without cask its just doesn't have that proper mild taste.
