Beer?

[uphillstruggler]

If we all liked the same beer then there'd be only one beer to drink. Can't be having that.

close the post of the week competition now.

well said sir

I like this thread for lots of reasons but this is the main reason why.

I have tried to like the badger ales but just cant get on with them. I have even called into the brewery a couple of times on my way past just to make sure the shop bought stuff wasn't a little close to date or badly kept.

it goes to show that one mans idea of good doesn't mean another's. still, I do like the recommendations and trying the various beers showcased.

keep up the beer work

Never been a great Hall & Woodhouse fan, tanglefoot the exception, just down the road from me, hence plenty of experience.

from Orkney brewery, dark ale. Not too bad.

By the Horns Passionade, a passion fruit pale. Good fruit tones, rather bitter for a pale. And it's very pale!

ADDENDUM: while I'm out - a Saltaire Triple Choc Stout...

Bugrit, phone's decided to become challenging and has reversed the pics. Meh

Perhaps there was a number I could have phoned to get it sorted but I didn't know what it was.

Sunlander (Stonehouse Brewery, 3.7%)

Falling more in to the "Gold", than Pale Ale category for my money, this is a pleasant, light bodied beer with a decent dash of lemony bitterness and a touch of peppery spice.

Ideal for a warm day in a beer garden, I think.

After an Anglo-Danish night, I'm now having an Anglo-Swedish afternoon. Now at London Calling Sweden sampling a Poppels' New England Pale. There's a NEIPA on the list but it'll look the same....

Lunch at the Warren House in on Dartmoor...

Keeping it local with a Roam brewery (formally Tavy Ales) American Ale, nice and hoppy at 5.2%. Beer snacks are good too!

Have you just had a beerthday?

 

[uphillstruggler]

Not something I would normally pick up, it’s a present from a mate.

Glad he bought it for me

It actually does have a peaches and cream initial mouth taste but finishes with a slightly bitter sweet tange

Marvellous

Have you just had a beerthday?

Not yet, soon and a reasonably significant one

The party was at the weekend- looks like I’m pretty easy to buy for

Fou'Foune from Cantillon. Don't think I've ever seen it on tap before outside Cantillon itself. A lot less tart than I remember.
