Beer?

[stephec]

Lidl are at it again with their selling of different beers, I've just picked up a couple each of these, all around £1.49 to £1.79.

A full sampling report will follow in due course.

Mrs stephec took a sip of my number one and decided she liked it, so had my second can of it.

Straight on to number two then, a typical NEIPA that's rather delish, and I might have to nip back and empty the shelf.

I'm now on number three, a white IPA, a bit of a cross between an IPA and a Belgian blond, not being a fan of Belgian blonds it's not 100% to my liking but I'm still going to finish it.

And finally number four, a fairly generic hoppy APA.

Only 4.2% but nicely quaffable, if there's any left next time I'm in there I'll be stocking up on this and number two.

The NEIPA was my favorite of the lidl turnout.

This was very enjoyable - expensive though. £4.25 :-O

I’m drinking a bit of this at the moment, brewed by Robinson’s for the Coop, a really classy beer.

I only went into Booths for some coffee beans, but these jumped off the shelf at me and they made a nice change.

For all the southerners, Booths are like a northern version of Waitrose. 😊

Look, a 19 without a covid in front of it! A Brew by Numbers fruity Gose

More raspberry than the lychee or rose. And maybe more sour than Gose.

While you're on your way for a Metric Tunnox, you might want to stop off in Leeds and try a Brack Porter. Brack, I've only just discovered, is a kind of Yorkshire tea cake, made with tea because it's a tea cake. Northern Monk Patrons. Dark's a Tannic Meal.

We're certainly getting into the stout part of the year!

Really enjoyed this recently **not my photo**

What do you do when Tesco knocks a pound off some of the good cans?

I was delivered 4 each of these this morning. After a very enjoyable visit to Left Handed Giant's last month, I finally got round to sampling some more of their sales.

Raspberry and Rhubarb Sour. Mostly raspberry but rhubarb is there as a kind of foundation. Gently sour, I've tasted sourer Goses.
