Vocation Brewery's mint chocolate stout.

Absolutely delish, I was worried that they might have gone over the top but they've got the balance spot on, the mint is just there without being overpowering.

It's 12% but so quaffable that if I was asked to guess I'd say 8%, I've has two bottles tonight and my ears feel slightly warm. 😂

Get down to Tesco whilst they're still selling it off for £3.66 a bottle.

Off to Weymouth Beer Festival this morning for the opening lunchtime session. I've nothing planned for tomorrow...

An excellent lunchtime session. It was like a balmy summers day, temperature at 21 as we ambled from the station to the Pavilion. There must have been some sort of Time / Space glitch in the continuum, as when we stumbled back into the sunlight to head for the station, the beach had been elongated🤔

Proof that the gods get thirsty too!

A mate of mine asked me to buy some of this from the brewery shop. I bought an extra can for sampling purposes.
11.2 % and tastes like a liquid Christmas cake!

An Aldi American IPA this evening, not bad.

Just back from a pleasant sojourn in Alsace. Upon arrival, I was so thirsty I asked for a local blonde beer on the terrace. This is what arrived:

Wild Rover Bière Ambrée d'Alsace 6%, made just up the road in Riquewihr. Non-filtered and non-pasteurised. Very well made good beer. Just a bit too dark and strong for my taste, certainly at that moment. Couldn't be ar**d to send it back for a blonde due to thirst. €6.50.

there are times in man's life when he thinks he's gone for a blonde but on closer inspection realises he's got a red(head)

A few days later at lunch to go with a tarte flammée, another request for a blond beer:

Guth Bière Blonde. Very, very tasty. So much I had another. Which might account for the lack of focus.
Intrigued by the english comment on the side label:

Never happened to me before!!

I went into Aldi last night for something, and ended up with these instead.

Williams Bros are spot on when it comes to the pale stuff and these were lovely.

I might have a go at the Brewdog tonight. 😊

From Connecticut, USA. This was pretty great.

Our local walking group usually pops into the local Spoons for coffee 😮. I always see what's interesting on the pumps. They were selling off the Titanic Brewery Plum Porter at £1.49 pint. My 50p CAMRA vouchers took that down to 99p.

A pint of 2+2 at Eight Arch brewery in Wimborne. Must remember not to miss the bus this time 🍺
