In the Baltic Fleet for a pre-dinner liver-tickler with the boy. I'm on the Morast from the local Big Bog brewery in Speke - a nice straightforward English bitter. The boy seems to be enjoying his Kneebuckler IPA, an American-style pale ale straight outta Birkenhead...

After seeing some of @Crackle's past efforts, I'm slightly disappointed that none of the beers here are served with five inches of froth on top.

Where the freak is @Crackle, has he flounced or summat?

I hear that if you say @Crackle 's name three times, he appears. Magically.

Now on the Baltic Pale (homebrew) and the Neptune Abyss - an absolutely fantastic oatmeal stout from another local brewery, deep and rich with caramel and coffee flavours. A stunningly good beer but so rich, almost chewy, that I don't think I could manage more than a couple of pints - but I'll try...

Well this was jolly nice. A lot of rich fruity sweetness at first, fading to caramel & some spicy bitterness. Less sweet (it seemed to me) than some other Belgian strong ales, and the better for it.

Mrs M says : "Very nice."

We also stocked up for the festive season;

A decent, if fairly mainstream selection of porter, pales and best bitters, and even some lager. Mrs M's Hoegaarden and wine stash is not pictured. I did get the last three Coniston Bluebird bottles - looking forward to that after enjoying it when we were staying in the lakes. Also bottle conditioned, which is nice.

Kwak is the biz.
