Beer?

It's only the one, a collaboration! Not sure i'll have it tonight, lady in shop pretty much inverted it when trying to find the name of it for the till, FFS.

I also got a mikkeller cherry beer which looks rather interesting.

I'm slumming it with a couple of Aspalls Premier Cru ciders. Apple fizz with decent ABV on a warm summer's evening.

I had a cider down the boozer earlier, a cold drink was required and it sure hit the spot. Glugging an 11.2% 2012 Insanely Bad Elf now, a lovey barley wine.

11.2%!!
Too strong for me but I like the men who drink it
Anyone remember that advert and which beer it advertised?

 

[ceepeebee]

Was it something daft like special brew? Before it became turbo-tramp juice?

The nogne pepper ale is good, not especially peppery, but definitely tasty. Not sure it's worth the premium, but it went very well with hot dogs, sauerkraut and ketchup in a roti.

Drink them before Mrs 3BM chucks em on the floor - very wise!

I thought it was some crap like Courage Best Bitter

Google says it was whitbread tankard, not one I've had.

My quick google came up with a scottish 90/-!

Weird!

The mikkeller cherry beer is just lovely, such a nice, tight bubble on it too

Mmmmm a wee heavy! 80 or 90 shilling, there's some lovely stuff about!

Opened a 750ml bottle of Black Mamba stout on Saturday and promptly fell asleep. Converted it into a chocolate and stout cake yesterday...

Had a few nice things over the weekend. This was the best...

Bit of a beast at 10%, but nicely balanced for a single hop.

Biggest disappointment was Schneider Weisse's Tap 5, a wheat double bock. I'm a huge fan of Schneider Weisse, but I couldn't finish this one.
