Beer?

[Pro Tour Punditry]

First bottle opened, I opted for the Mor Brewery "Mor Tea, Vicar?" (£1.89 for 500ml) and I'd say the description of it on their webpage is spot on, and it definitely has a "pronounced bitter finish". Very good effort I even did as I was told on the label and served it cool, not chilled.

2nd bottle, Speyside Craft Brewery's "Bow Fiddle Blonde" (£1.99 for 500ml): similar colour but a hugely different beer; a nice crisp beer which is initially much less "punchy" than the previous offering but which has a lingering finish - another thumbs up

Beavertown Black Betty, black IPA - outstanding as always.

Last one tonight: "O buurman, wat doet u nu?" from Uiltje.


Its a barley wine, but the name needs a bit of explaining. It translates as "oh neighbour, what are you doing?!" and comes from a well known scene in a Dutch movie which prolly speaks for itself.

Please note that the clip is NSFW and features naked bosoms.

For some reason it puts me in mind of @RichP and his neighbour!!

3rd beer of the evening is the Burnside Brewery "Wild Rhino" blonde beer (£1.79 for 500ml). A mixture of all that was good of the previous two beers, a nice early bitterness and a long crisp finish which mellows slightly. Darker in colour than the previous 2 beers. Yet another thumbs up

I'm now starting to realise that I have one beer left before it's back to the Blackthorn cider...

Not had Blackthorn for years as being a Strongbow lover till they recently changed the taste recently , does the Blackthorn still give you a bad druth the next day?
