Beer?

I've had a few cans of that Flex from Quality Save, its really good stuff and only about £1.70.

I was in there again a few days ago and it's actually £2.09.

Whilst I was there I picked up this 6% of malty loveliness, a bargain at £1.49.

A small selection of craft Ales at Back Country Brewing, Squamish BC, Canada

I'm not sure some of them fall within my definition of "Beer" but....

Heineken buy Beavertown, and I never knew it was started by a Led Zep son -

I fear there will be a lot of ''consolidation''/closures over the next year or so, with increased costs and an at best stagnant economy. I think Beavertown's status as an independent went back in 2018 when they first got into bed with Heineken. It will be interesting to see what becomes of Magic Rock and Fourpure now that they're back in the UK market after a while in the Lion/Kirin stable. I'm local to Fourpure and they used to be pretty adventurous - this got pared back to their core range. I hope their thirst for adventure returns.

Had a couple of Orvals in Gent yesterday.

95 Windows, a LHG x Double Barrelled collaboration. Full bodied with west coast bitterness.
Can't wait till they do a Vista version.

Smile, You Son of a Peach - a nice and fully fruited sour from Bianca Road. It's the first Bianca beer that I've ever enjoyed. Their trademark taste used to be super-bitter

Supermarket beer. 440ml is plenty. Tough going for me!
Really fruity.

Tonight I will mostly be pouring this beer. It's a Wild Beer with NZ hops, apple juice, with a curious long woody aftertaste that somehow reminds me of Islay malt.

Another Aldi special, slightly on the bitter side and only 99p, it's as good as stuff that I've paid twice as much as that for in the past.

Had one of these in Bruges last weekend.
