Beer?

This is one of the best beers ever. If you can, get some. Red wine barrel aged, malty, chocolate, sensational. 8 per cent.

On reflection, it's up their with the best of DeMo.
Second up, a cask drawn murky NEIPA. Hops, fruit etc. Pretty quaffable, from Unbarred local brewery.
So far is a pretty good Sunday afternoon!

Yes, I know the wine thread is thisaway -------> and the Pimms thread is thataway <------. But somewhere in the middle I had one of these:

It claims to be McEwans No.1, but back when I was 18 I used to alternate No1 and Wadworth's 6X, and each was only about 4.5%. This is 7.3%.

It's rather good with a barbeque - sweet and strong but still with a lot of depth. I'd buy it.

Never mind the Pims and shīt, is that a plastic 'glass'? The shame...

Managed to get a couple in this weekend, been supporting local brewers. First up was Brecon Brewery, chocolate orange stout. It was fab, neither too chocolatey nor too orangey, both were very subtle, really liked this and I'm not normally into stout.

Next was in the tap bar, pint of Otley. This one was very hoppy and bitter but cold and crisp. I liked it, my mate hated it and the lady who served me tried it and didn't like it either - said it was too bitter.

Then today had Brecon Brewery again - this overdid the citrus a bit and tasted stronger than its 4.3%. Still nice though, I'd have it again on a hot day.

I've got a bottle of Brecon Brewery Mind Bleach 10% in the fridge which I didn't get round to having this weekend. Looking forward to that one.

To be fair, she disapproved of Rich even before this shock revelation.
