Beer?

[ceepeebee]

Been meaning to try this one for a while - the guys in the beer shop rave about it. Tried one yesterday and gave it another go tonight. Not for me, this one - too thin and a bit dry.

Oh, shame, I love it. The Saison is a cracker too

Crikey, Mort!! I've seen the banana one, butnever been brave enough to try it. Made the people that brew Delirium Tremens.

Sampled a blinder last night. My first brew from Evil Twin in Denmark. A 12% RIS beast. Loads of depth and flavour in this one. Jet black in colour and nice and thick.

Oh yeah, we like evil twin

Friend of mine just returned from shooting things in Scotland and bought me a bottle of 'IPA' brewed by Colonsay (one of those 3.9% not IPA's) anyway it looks nice and the inscription on the back is lovely...

"Colonsay is the smallest island in the world with its own brewery. Ten percent of the island's working population, Chris and Bob, are employed here"

Hey 3BM - went to a bar last night which had Kernel stout on tap: 8 eurobeans for a half-pint!

Fortunately, they had Grand Prestige on tap at a much more reasonable price.

Edit: Mrs DP cycled past Dale Watson and band yesterday!

Blimey DP! Grand Prestige is a fine beer though and an admirable substitute.

Anyone tried this? might get a few bottles 2 for £3

Got a late birthday present last night - a green top westvleteren, niiiiice. Shame I'm on the wagon for another week!

Oh wow, I was being colour blind - it's the yellow-capped big one!

I was daahn the smoke today and a couple of doors from where I was 'working' there was an Adnams shop with a few interesting things, got some Tally-Ho, a barley wine at 7.2% and one called Innovation which is a strong American style IPA chock full of hops and 6.7% - will report back my findings. They had quite a few other items of interest including a spirit distilled from Broadside, quite nice, a bit like brandy, interesting idea. Bought a bottle of Adnams Limoncello for t' missus. Although I'll probably have most of it.
