Beer?

[User482]

A trip to the homebrew shop to buy ingredients for a US pale, and I spotted this:

Mrs 3BM went to a German supermarket and I got some beer.

Yeah I know...

Just saw this on the 'toob. Alcohol, a jug of ice water and power tools, what could possibly go wrong.

Hooky Red Rye, lovely stuff.

When does beer get too expensive?

This is £5.55 for (wait for it) a third

Yes, 6.97 mossirlamis per pint.

Het Uiltje, Al9or1thm in all its glorious 14.9 percentness is one of the nicest, most licoricey, boozy, chocolatey, rich, deep, dark, cakey things I have ever had.

Beer becomes too expensive when it's not worth it.

[ETA: it's Maker's Mark Barrel Aged, it seems many beers share the name Al9or1thm]

6.97!!!!!
You've got more money than sense, Mossy...

...although, that doesn't set the bar very high

This USA stylee, amber ale from some Tyneside geezers is pretty good. Malty with a bitter finish and no hint of the passion fruit and mango it's supposed to contain.

I know where the wine thread is but I needed to share this from a recent supermarket I visited in Portugal...
What a guy!

I'm not sure the marketing peeps did their research.

That's £5.55 of a strong barley wine for a 180ml glass. Try and find a 175ml glass of drinkable grapey wine....
