Beer?

Lidl own brand. Serviceable and cheap.

Hibiscus must be flavour of the month. This is Wild Weather Ales, Curse of the Threepwood.

Rhubarb and hibiscus wheat sour, my hipsterometer just exploded.

Did he choose his t-shirt to match your beer can design?

As it happens, the tee is a Beavertown Brewery design

I've been trying a selection of local beers on my hols this year. Seem to end up loving the ones you just can't find more than 20 miles from where you've been.
Anyone ever seen Durbuy-Z or Durboise beers (from Durbuy in Belgium) or Orkney Gold in the shops anywhere?
Wishing I'd gone back and bought crates of the stuff when I had the chance. Specially the Orkney Gold .... beautiful light pale ale with honey tones. Liquid nectar.

Stopped off at the Green Welly Shop at Tyndrum on the way home. A seething mass of humanity and ridiculous queues that made me just think "sod that" and go straight back to the car. Thankfully my missus has a bit more perseverance and resolve and made it to the shelves of beer. A few minutes later, as I was snoozing in the car, I woke to a tap on the window and Mrs Donger proudly showing off the very last five bottles of Orkney Gold that had been in stock. Result! That girl's a keeper.

I usually stop at the Real Food Cafe at Tyndrum - is it still going?

There was another place there, on the other side of the road .... but that was full up to overflowing too. That's the sort of thing I went to Scotland to get away from!

That used to be a Little Chef. It is of course better now but a little part of me misses Little Chef's everywhere.

I like a nice mild but sadly it seems that there are not many strong ones around, apart from the Sarah Hughes.

Here's one @Daddy Pig

Not bad at all and perfect for when the nights get colder. It's brewed locally to me. Depending on which part of Devon you are living in, I could bring you a couple of bottles if you can't find any down there. We come down to visit my parents in Totnes quite often. This is my last bottle of it so I need to get some more.

From Aldi 99p .....

Very nice, brewed by Brains - chocolate flavoured ;-)

That's hugely kind of you and that looks really nice. It's good to see mild still being made to a proper abv! My office is in Newton Abbot so not a million miles away!
I'll have a look for availability, there is a good beer shop at Darts farm but not sure I've seen this in there!

I;ve a shed load of fruity novelty beers and I'll post details later. I just wanted to pre-warn 3BM in case he wanted to leave the room first.
