Nice beer, bit too yeasty, went nuts after it was opened (the beer not me).
Dahn the fackin boozer, Hook Noton Sundial, a sub 4% pale with a lovely hoppy taste and finish.

I quite like a Negroni once in a blue moon.
" It lends the drinker a certain continental sophistication. And it doesn’t skimp on the ABV."

Anyway, Campari is brilliant. I think I might buy even a bottle today.

Popped out to redirect some mail but there's a pub on the way home
Burnt Mill Pintle. Rather nice but the BBNo 21, another pale, was more to my taste. I then had the misfortune of sitting next to their beer cabinet with Northern Monk Patrons Project beers in it.
Currently sampling the one on the right, North Sea Sessions, a DDH session IPA. Not NM's best but no bad either

Spotted this in the offie today. Made with artichokes for an alternative negroni.
Don't worry - that was the last of the non-beer stuff!

Beer! Tired Hands outta PA and Tree House outta MA.
The Tired Hands is a sticky bomb of dank. According to the Surgeon General (who she?) it's going to kill me one way or another: I can't think of a better recommendation!

11% of barrel aged barley wine by Siren. It's one of their annuals, 2018 being the year they put it into barrels, so it's this year's version. Drinking it at room temperature because I discovered that when I had a sample at the brewery this year it had already warmed up a little, which really brought out the flavour. It's a very winey barley wine and warmed up tastes almost like a fortified wine. I may put my remaining bottle in the fridge for an hour and see how it tastes when it's cooler but not cold.

A few I’ve had the good fortune to sample this weekend
The gardeners ale was a very pleasant surprise, never had quince but if this is anything to go by, I’m a fan
The old dairy gold top was a firm favourite but the head brewer changed a while ago and was apparently replaced by a chap from sheapardes neame but from the least bottle I had, it had become more home brewy unfortunately
The easy peeler was in a pub not far from Twickenham on Saturday. Very nice but at £6.20 a pint - blimey

That's a shame about the Old Dairy beers. I've had a few of the different 'Tops' as cask beers and the Old Dairy was a good brewery.

My thoughts exactly. I think there was a turnover of staff and rumour has it that they are in some way involved with a new brewery in Ashford called the curious brewery, which has a good lager (believe it or not) but I think is owned in part by venture capitalists. Not sure how long the old dairy will be about if that’s the case which is a shame.
I worked with a mate of the brewer that came up with the original gold top, but he may even now be involved with the curious lot in some way as his mate said he’d left to join a wine maker that was looking to expand (curious) into beer. If he has, it could be a good thing.
I received a beer from a work colleague from the curious brewery, could be a special occasion beer, a barrel aged elderflower saison. Apparently
I’ll report back once I’ve tried the gold top .
