Legend by Dartmoor Brewery. I had one last week and tonight again and a very fine beer it is too.

I have to say that the Tesco's own IPA is alright for £1.33 a bottle.

Duvel Tripel Hop - like Duvel but more so!

Edit: Stille Nacht, Belgian Christmas ale.

Edit II: De Mollen Rasputin - interesting one this because it's described as an imperial stout but to me I think it compares more to a Thomas Hardy Ale, I haven't tried one for a year or two but I'm convinced it's a very similar beer.

AK Damm "Methode Alsace". Not entirely sure what method Alsace is - seemed like a regular macro-lager, so OK if chilled hard enough.

I had a rather unusual one last night - Chesil "Pilsner Ale" from the Dorset Brewing Co. An ale made with lager malt. Might have enjoyed it more on a warm summer day than a cold winter evening, tbh.

I've been drinking some Belgian Christmas Ales over the last few days.

X-Mas Ale from Brasserie Le Senne.
Pere Noel from De Ranke
Deliruim Christmas from Brouwerij Huyghe

All of them OK, but not quite as good as the regular ales, mind you, Delerium Tremens and De Ranke's XX are really top class.

What did you think of Stille Nacht, 3BM? I find it a bit much to get through to be honest, but I'm going to lay a couple down as I've been told that it matures well.

Quite intrigued by your comments on Rasputin. It's a while since I tasted it, so I'm going to get a bottle this evening and give it another go.

I'm struggling to remember what I thought of Stille Nacht, I think it was OK. I'm not a big fan of beer that's been overly mucked about with, fruit and spices, etc. but I don't recall it being too overdone - my vagueness is telling isn't it!?

The other couple of De Molen's in stock might have to be parked up as I note they're 25 year keepers as was the Raspitin - worth it or best glugged now?

Be interested to see your comments on the Rasputin, see if you think it's got a touch of the Thomas Hardy's too.
