Beer?

[jongooligan]

Think my palate must be getting a bit jaded. Can't find a lot of flavour in this one.

Here's a review from another site:
'Bright gold, vast fluffy white pillows of lasting foam, good condition. Subdued spicy nose with sweet grain, low yeasty esters and some spirity burn. Quite soft in the mouth with a gentle peppery spiciness, some hop bitterness and a solid sweet grain note, finish has a slight yeasty bitterness, some clove and pepper spiciness and a lingering sweet maltiness'

Fluffy white pillows huh?....

Slightly more tart than the other two tripels I've tasted today. Some subtle citrus flavours; all the better for not being the 'totally tropical' fashion of modern craft beers.
I'll be getting some more of this.

That's the end of my weekend Belgian education. From my own research I'll be getting more Karmeliet tripel and Westmalle tripel. If anyone has any more suggestions please let me know. Thanks.

Westmalle Dubbel, Kwak and De Struise Pannepot are my faves as well as Duvel, natch.

The pic tells you nothing, but this is a Crossborders Summer Honeysuckle Rose Saison. It's nice, although nowhere near as nice as it sounds. Well, what could possibly be?

Summer Honeysuckle Rose Saison sounds like a sleb's kid.

And mine

If I'm after a pint on a warm day and don't want a grapefruit bomb but want a bit of complexity, Proper Job is just the ticket. £1.50 a bottle at Asda too

I know the wine thread is thataway, but it seems my wife is dropping unsubtle hints.

"I know what we can use to get people to buy more wine......gardening gloves......and in a choice of colours too!"

What were they on?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Complimentary! For £14.67 I'd want someone to wear the gloves and dig the garden over.

 

[rich p]

I get the fat bastard bit but where do the gardening gloves come into it?

You weed in them.
It's an audio gag...
...sort of.
