Aphrodisiaque from Dieu de Ciel - a coffee and vanilla stout.

Smells like Cadburys milk chocolate and tastes pretty much the same! I also get roasted malt to work against the sweetness along with vanilla and reasonable subtle coffee at the end. Quite low ABV for this style, so not so full as many beers of this style.

All in all, a very nice American-style dessert beer. You could easily sip your way through two or three!

Had to suffer some yellow stuff en France last week but some were tolerable

...and this one too - although the BBQ session ale of general choice was the Pelforth Brun

Yep, the Radio 2 night session and half a dozen or so gets me melancholy and dozing.

Pressure Drop Street Porter, sure Janet would approve, nice but not quite up to Kernel standards of porter.

A cheeky Black IPA from Emelisse

Dp, have you seen the latest beer list for borefts? Sensational stuff.

I am ridiculously excited about it (not least because I get to have two full days on the bike). Am planning on picking up a couple of choice beers for the ferry home on the Sunday night.

Shaping up nicely, isn't it? I'm heading over Friday afternoon and may go on Sat too.

Northmaen Rousse, it's got a kind of buttery, vanillary thing going on, not huge on flavour but nice and very drinkable, just the job when you're slaving over a hot stove, as I am!

We'll be there all Saturday. I'll be having a quick look at the de Stijl house in the morning then we'll head over for a full day. I've decided to get the overnight ferry on Sunday night so my ride back to hoek can be taken at a leisurely pace.

Oh and a night in utrecht on Friday. (Might pass through bodegraven on the lf4 (or 2?) on the way there)

A tasting with the beer chums this evening. About 15 or so beers...

Managed also to get a sniff of Heady Topper's Alchemist, the top rated IPA on rate beer at the moment...
