I like the Williams Bros stuff, one of many top notch Scotch brewers.

I seem to have edited my original text out which was...
...not bad but a little too sweet.

A glowing recommendation, with food/drink my gran used to say 'I've tasted worse', this was as generous as she ever got with praise.

I've seen uglier grandchildren but....

No DeMo!!!!

Having a Clown Shoes Blaecorn Unidragon from the tap instead, an imperial stout, reasonably pokey at 12.5%, it's first rate stuff - outstanding!

On tap, nice! My local occasionally has the odd bottle of Clown Shoes, but I'm a bit put off by the 12 squid price tag.

I've had touch of man-flu this week, so haven't been able to imbibe. Did try a "Pepperspray Porter" from Het Uiltje last night, but had to give up after a few sips: the chilli was overpowering.

I love chilli, but not necessarily with everything under the sun...spicy flavours aren't just about heat.

They were sensibly flogging this in third of a pint measures, at £4.50 a throw I thought it was OK, that's £13.50/pint which sounds a lot but I thought it was worth it, I had 2!

And they even found your preferred wine glass to put it in!

Absolutely agree, MavGo. I'm not totally averse to chili in beer, but this was too aggressive.

Lovely, lovely geuze.

[QUOTE 3048523, member: 259"]I've never seen that in the shops - it's a Boon one isn't it? (although it doesn't show up on their website).[/QUOTE]

I'm pretty sure you're right Mort that it's from Boon. As you say, it's almost impossible to find any mention of it on-line. I get it from the guy that runs the Eizeringen pub (the one where Mort junior "lost" his phone!).

[QUOTE 3048539, member: 259"] View attachment 43454 Back to the old faithful - Guinness Special Export, which is a much nicer drink at 8%, and very popular in Flanders. I had a few oyster stouts in NI last week - the first time I've ever drunk it.[/QUOTE]

What's in the bag behind the vacuum packed sweetcorn, Mort, it looks like remains or something?
