Beer?

[ceepeebee]

Holy bloody hell, that's a bit of a dream line-up, if only money and kids would allow a beer-raid. I've had a couple of the maximus and they were great, particularly a black saison of all things.

Am definitely on for de molen fest though, I think there'll be quite a crew of us heading over, though I might be the only cyclist.

On a tangent, does anyone else do untappd? It's the slippery slope to tickersville but it does help me keep track.... I'm ceepeebee on there too.

Had a pint of Fuller's Frontier at lunchtime (in Shaws Booksellers). Rather good, though a wee bit fizzy for my liking.

Currently enjoying a lovely pint of 'Vital Spark' by Fyne Ales. Picked up a few bottles direct from the brewery at the end of Loch Fyne whilst travelling back from nearby last week.

"A very dark ale with a glorious reddish glow. A full bodied ale which is rich in taste with a dry finish."

Looks good, new one on me, the old jocks are first rate at dark ales.

Bottle of Unibroue's Don de Dieu tonight. Wow, just wow. A triple wheat beer, so smooth and spicy, but 9% - and that sneaks up on you too.

Couple of newies, Hook Norton have brewed a beer for the Cornbury Festival called The Glorious 10th, very nice pale zesty job. Went to a village fete today and the local pub had brewed its own beer called Butcher's Blonde, pale summer beer, extremely nice, especially when quenching ones thirst on a lovely summer's afternoon.

Bit tipsy, been at the calvados and mixing cocktails. But partisan saison grisette is an absolute champ of a beer.

Only a Mad Goose to my name so far but down that London earlier and picked up a beer label/mat book on the Southbank, add that to the beer book shelf, also a nice 30s film poster card too.

Good work everyone - some tasty looking brews being supped!

A quick sundowner here. Brewdog IPA is Dead (Dana) on tap. Not a patch on the Goldings I had earlier in the week.

If that's DP's own fridge I'm either phoning AA straightaway or popping round for a session.

I nearly took a picture of the St Bernies shelf just for you!!

The Brewdog was horrible. Dana's evidently not a hop to be used on its own.

That's pretty much my general feeling about DP!

A cheeky kernel export porter for me tonight, after the hangover finally subsided, oops.
