Beer?

a carbonara with added black pudding.

I'm not entirely sure what to say about this.

I'm drinking a Wild Weather Ales Peach of a Weekend Peach Sour. Just to annoy McGinty.

"Shows imagination"?


(It was actually really good - why wouldn't it work?)

Either that, or 'Displays a complete absence of restraint'. But hell, I'd give it a go...

So what's so great about restraint?

That sort of depends on the context...

Quote function helps.

It's a warning for us all. Rich has no time for context anymore - get to the reviewing, he cautions us, or face his awful, dipsomanic wrath.

Given that you posted at the same time, and about beer to boot, you can safely not be offended

Brand extension. This is not just the beer thread. It's the beer and food matching thread.

The only food pairing required is '...and chips'.

I'm thinking of asking @Shaun if we can have a sub-thread that syphons off posts which mention fruit, after three posts being quarantined the poster gets a good hard kicking.

All very reasonable, in theory but you are in danger of straying into beer thread Naziism.

3BM is looking forward to a dystopian "Handmaid's Tale" society where we are only allowed to drink Hook Norton best bitter

Just because I uphold the traditions of the Reinheitsgebot there's no need to get all Wittgensteiny on me.

On Saturday we stopped off at Booths in Carnforth and did some shopping. As well as salt-marsh lamb and some excellent Yorkshire sourdough, we found a very large shelf of beer - a much bigger range than in our local large Waitrose and with a decent selection from the North of England (as well as - count'em - six different beers from Wychwood).

The back row is in the wrong thread, but has very attractive labels and on the evidence of one of the bottles is very good quality. This evening I've had the OSB Blackboard (Warton - it's about two miles from Carnforth and two miles from where we were staying) which is, indeed, smooth and dark. It went very well with a carbonara with added black pudding. I've also had the Ampleforth Double - a more than decent Yorkshire knock-off of a Belgian Abbey Dubbel.

Every branch of Booths has a magnificent beer aisle.
