Beer?

[MossCommuter]

Train beer. Proper Duesseldorf Alt. Closest euro brew to English bitter.

Blackjack Vanilla Nutmeg Saison

Light and refreshing, served a bit warm to my mind but the perfect sharpener after yesterday's big effort

Game over man, game over.

Mrs M and I had a pub lunch, at the Cheshire Cat in Nantwich - nice pub and nice food. There were only two handpumps, so we tried both;

Boltmaker (Timothy Taylor, 4.0%)
Formerly "Best Bitter" (the name was changed to Boltmaker in 2012, apparently). It's like a more citrussy version of Landlord, I reckon - very refreshing when consumed in a beer garden with a massive cheese and pickle sandwich.

Cheshire Cat (Weetwood, 4.0%)
Has the typical thin feeling of its style (golden ale) but also an interesting, and refreshing floral quality that was just the ticket on a warm day.

Mrs M says: "These go very well with a grilled halloumi flatbread."

Okay. This could be a mistake but I drink them so you don't have to.

La Debauché, Big Boy Chili Imperial Stout at 12%

It's not got a big chili thing (phew)

It's from a keg so a little frizzanté (I discovered the accents on Googlé Kéybörd)

It's a classic Imp. Stout. Chocolate, licorice, coffee and, yes, a little lift from the chili's.

It's very nice

Liked but beginning to doubt Mrs M's tastes

Dialogue from my day.

Two guys "educating" one another about beer.

"Bramling Cross will be interesting because, of course, Bramling Cross is an apple"

<Sigh>
