The pumpkin we grew for Halloween weighs 17kg. I did consider using it to make beer or wine, but I suspect my wife's suggestion of making a curry is the right one. We may even finish eating it by Christmas.

XT 9 (black). I much prefer these straightforward names. It's from Long Crendon, on a Chiltern foothill.

"Modern" (which means quite hoppy), but not offensively and fruitily so. I'd have liked a little more sweetness, but it's Proper Beer.

There's nothing I can say in your defense

Nominations for Crown Steward and Bailiff are beginning to mount.

Not brewed in one of the Three Hundreds, but a bit further north, just outside Wendover. As I drink it, this beer has 1.2 food miles, plus an extra mile or so to get it to the shop in a van and to the house I'm in this evening on foot.

Enough rambling. It's a good bottle of strong sweet bitter. Not really a dark ale, but I'm not complaining.

Not usually a big Saltaire Brewery fan but had a couple of pints of their Triple Chocoholic Stout this arvo in the Globe, Moorgate

And delish they were. Sorry no pics as it was kinda work related and I'd look a knob taking photos of my beer

You like your beer to sound like you're selecting gear components?

I love pumpkin. Just not in beer.


Or curry.

Better than sounding like the fourth sentence of an experimental poem or the heading of a random Wikipedia article.

Right. I'm off for a pint of Four-Day Week, a Kitty Foyle and a quick Thoothuduki Division to finish. Do experimental poems generally contain sentences?

Do experimental poems generally contain sentences?

Yes. Even if the poet disagrees.

Not as much as you would taking photos of your knob in the pub.

Or someone else's...

I would argue, but I need to go and bottle the rhubarb wine.

Not sure about rhubarb wine, but there are some decent rhubarb beers. Cantillon's got a "double-dang!! on the dp rating scale.
