They had Big Job a while back in my local spoons. £1.99 a pint. Did you try it? Nice pint. All ales (which I drink) are now £2.15. Currently on DBC origin. 4.3%. Golden ale. Quality at that price.
Big job is a good ale. I tried it when it first came out, also at the beer festival... A proper 9% beer until it was watered down a bit to 7.2% for the mass public!

In a new tradition, I drink a bottle of Old Tom each 5th December and remember our old black cat.

A fine, strong dark beer. I'm drinking it in the company of the old black cat's replacement. The new (second hand) cat is settling in:

If beer drinking ever needed an excuse, that's up there with the best!

And hoppy days!;) I'm looking forward to my Three Nelsons Sour IPA, a collab between 2 of my favourite breweries (Fierce and sour Kings Chorlton).

"We’re open for sales on the fifth Wednesday of every month, so double-check your calendar before making the trip. Our retail shop starts up at noon, and goes until we sell out of cans. It’s hard to say exactly when we’ll run out on a given day due to varying demand, but as a rule of thumb, if you didn’t sacrifice an entire night’s worth of sleep in order to get in line before sundown of the previous day, you’ve already missed out."

A pint of thirds, in a good, proper boozer after dutifully traipsing round some 'Open Houses' looking at over-priced art and tat. Or possibly tat and art - it's often hard to tell them apart.

A raspberry gose, a berliner weiss and a 9.3% chocolate stout from Siren. The latter was phenomenal and the whole lot was a snip at £5.75

Was that the Broken Dream stout.? I had one the other day when it was on at the local taproom and it was rather blooming good. I've also got a bottle of it back home after a Siren order got delivered....

Currently quaffing a Manchester Brewery American Pale and trying to decide whether to get a No Way Gosé or a Chocolate Moose....

Just back from a quick bimble-booze-rebimble to Cloudwater. I do love these Sunday late afternoon excursions. Anyhow, back to beerzness.

Cranberry and papaya sour looks like this

... And also tastes rather good, though not as good as their blackberry sour.

Their Bourbon BA Imperial Stout looks like this:

... And tastes of spirits, port and chocolate and at 12% it propels you home with considerable impetus. Cloudwater collaboration with J Wakefield.
