Beer?

[threebikesmcginty]

Hook Norton Harvest Hop, seasonal beer, kind of sweetish buttery taste which wasn't unpleasant (damned by feint praise), nice longish bitter finish, pretty good for a sub 4% beer, by George!

Then off out of town and a few pints of Stratford Brewery Amarillo something or another, see posts passim.

As you can see it was an exciting night out for some.

Then back to photo one for another couple, I was a bit pissed.

I was very excited to try one of the sherry barrel old ales by Marble and today I have the chance.

This is Verezzi, it's been in an oloroso barrel.

To be fair, I think the oloroso was still in it and they didn't have any room for the beer. It's basically fizzy sherry. Muchos alcoholic flavour. I was hoping for something more portery.

You win some, you lose some.

Nothing to look at in the glass but beer of the day so far Track/Takk collaboration, Finca Imperial Coffee Stout from a cask.

9% ABV

As good as and reminiscent of Magic Rock.

Got some Icelandic Smoked Porter for later. To take away the taste of cava.

With best wishes.

Prolly my favouritist beer in the whole wide world.

9% super saison, with a real farmyard whiff.

When @DP names his favouritest beer in the WHOLE WORLD! my ears prick up. On the off chance I asked if there was a small bottle (on the menu is only 750ml) and after an initial 'no' at which I said I'd take the 750ml and pretend I had a friend, a small bottle was found and a price negotiated.

This beer is the very definition of why not to get a shot glass taste of beer. Initially not attractive, clear, lager like, fizzy. Nice thick heavy bottle hints at quality in hindsight.

ultimately; hay, straw, pollen (dust?), dry, marshmallow carbonation, bitter, autumn, zingy [mossy's waxing lyrical], AND NINE POINT FIVE PERCENT! So subtle.

Thanks @DP

Go back and get the 750ml bottle!!

You're right, I should but there are so many things I've not had yet

Here's another new one, I asked for Alvinne Kriek, there was none, but this came back saying recommended alternative

One for the sisters

I'll have to search it out with my next beer order... along with pork scratching I reckon would work great!

You really need to name this pub and provide a location!

 

[MossCommuter]

Oh, @Daddy Pig , I'm in Beermoth Cafe it's kind of a given when it's this time Saturday and I start ranting

Previously in 57 Thomas Street and Port Street beer house

Don't know that. Alvinne are always good for a laugh if you like your beef dripping off the ceiling...

[edit: beef should be beer!]

Can't read without my glasses on, and shouldn't impulse buy beer without them.

Einstök Icelandic Toasted Porter. Got coffee in it.

I have to say that of all the Lime, Hibiscus and Chilli Gose beers I've had, this was my favourite

Bollocks! I 'liked' that too, must go and sort that out.
