Beer?

[User169]

One third of a pint of Prairie brewery, "Flare" from Oklahoma.

£3.85

Yes, three pounds eighty five pence (1.61 Mossirlamis) for a THIRD of a pint.

That's £11.55 a pint.

It's nice, it's a sour beer that makes me think of goosegogs and, ok, it came all the way from Murrikah, but really, £11.55 a pint is a bit farking daft.

I'm only having one then I'm off to Spoons.

The bar I'm in right now has 500ml bottles for 14 eurobeans.

So my landlord had just sold up



To a couple who already have a bar in town. Sadly, I expect they'll dumb it down and get more crappy Dutch craft beer which they can sell at a good margin.

No more stupidly expensive US beer.

You should have bought it

Did think about it. A few back of the beer mat calculations weren't entirely encouraging and Mrs DP wasn't hugely keen.

Ever unconventional I'm having The Kernel's Imperial Brown Stout London 1856 (9.5% of your falling-down juice) - or as I'd call it a rather nice black barley wine - with my haggis tonight. We have a bottle of Highland Park Dark Origins too.

Highland Park...my favourite whisky-the perfect balance between the mellower fruitiness of the Speysiders and the peaty smokiness of the Islay malts. Harviestoun mature their Ola Dubh in Highland park Casks IIRC-slainte!

At the beginning of December, Louis, our dear old black cat finally had to be put to sleep. He had been our constant companion for the best part of 19 years.

Tonight I am raising a glass to many happy memories.

La version onze est arrivée

Initial impression on the nose is hewouge grapefruit aroma and the flavour lives up to it.

It's lush

And for the cappage nerds

Now we know @Crackle's secret. It's an ultrasonic vibrator.

Given its obvious alternative uses it's not going anywhere near a beer of mine
