Beer?

[Aperitif]

Blood of Angry Men by Wild Weather Ales. Straight outta... Berkshire. It's a raspberry sour, to follow a pair of Siren Calypsos. I like it, but there's not a lot to say about it other than that it is undeniably a raspberry sour.

Blood of Angry Men

Wow! Not often that you drink that from a glass, luv - usually straight from the jugular!
Forget the greengrocers a'postrophe, we have the'm greengrocers' beers!
Anyway, about three days ago, I think I said something lime 'pic in a tic' - as it sort of rolled off the whatever...
DP might be familiar - not personally, but with a knowledge of colloquialisms du jour.

And then I got called away to do a bit of electrics. Not a matter of life and death but it turned out that way. After I had finished, the place was flooded.

Then, a day later (Sunday, Mossy) I had to go and rearrange someone's front garden so that each leaf was a minimum 2.4 metres vertically from the public carriageway. I felt a right Tart with my measure in my hand.

I felt I was caught in a trap, and I couldn't go on. I was all shook up (as only the lonely are maybe?) so, I tidied up and went to meet Sheikh Rattlenroll ...in the Gevrey Chambertin thread >>>> over there, I know...

Just think, tomorrow's Tuesday.

And then Mrs W found me (not that it was difficult) and we went for a curry.

As @DP points out, if beer looks high quality it is high quality.

Except that we all known that Cobra is GYP of the highest order - but looks fantastic when poured out next to a Pathia.

Yesterday's treat with friends in Beermoth.

Pricey but enjoyed by everyone.

Kriek-ish but a variety of red fruits rather than just cherries

Beer

 

[John the Monkey]

Tribute (St. Austell, 4.2%)

An old fashioned sort of pale, with a decent amount of bitterness, but a more overwheliming impression of caramel sweetness, I think. Not a ground breaker, but very pleasant.

Peaky Blinder (Sadliers, 4.6% abv)

An impulse buy at Home and Bargains, and whilst not the 89p bargain that Banks' Bitter is, I don't think it topped £1.30. Billed as a black IPA, I got a lot more stouty smoke from it, with a decent amount of hop bitterness giving it a little complexity. Not half bad.

Welsh Beacons (Brecon Brewery, 3.7% abv)

A very nice, gold-ish sort of a beer. Fairly light bodied, but with a lovely floral hop character and just a little, almost wit-bier earthiness. I'd have liked the taste to linger a bit more, but this would be a lovely refreshing brew on a hot day.

Mrs M says: "Very nice (x3)".

Two Roads Passion Fruit Hose

Odd. Definitely Passion Fruit. It says it's soured "in our tanker truck"which might explain the strange petrochemical taste.

Not worth the fiver I paid. I'm not mad keen

Colour of it I'd say it's probably radioactive.

Big time jealous. Hadouken is my favourite beer

I had another Fubar as I've decided to come back for the Hadouken, given it's 7.4%

Ok, half a Hadouken

Lost a little bit of top end taste now but smells lovely, tastes creamy and smooth.....
