I've just realised that @John the Monkey pics all have 2 glasses with beer in them - surely he's not one of these strange chaps that has someone to share his beer with...jeezo, what is the world coming to.
Mrs M likes a beer too, but doesn't do all this analysing the flavour nonsense I do...

It's a bit more complicated than that...
I've spent the festive season working my way through a mixed case of Mr Adnam's finest, bought with the wine from Majestic. And rediscovering the pleasures of the light lunchtime pint (singular) with bread and cheese - strengths ranging from 3.4% to 5.0%

Lighthouse
Southwold Bitter
Explorer
Ghost Ship

All very good.

[QUOTE 3449471, member: 259"]Plenty of the Duvel 1.5 litre magnums at the supermarket - the perfect size for a night in. But it's a war of nerves to see if they'll drop the price after new year's eve.

How much are they at present Mort? Half the price of over here I suspect?

By the way, I'm going to one of my favourite boozers tonight with a couple of Cyclechatters. Of which, more later.

Go easy on 'em Rich!

I may have rather badly misjudged the Xmas/NY beer situation

Always with an eye for a bargain I bought about 60 bottles of the "Revisionist" range of ales @ £1.25 a bottle. I always have a dry January so there is tonight and NYE left. And I still have about 40 bottles to go. I'll give it my best shot of course but I suspect every time I go out to the garage in January they will be there....looking at me.....reminding me of their deliciousness.....tempting me

Finally! I have had some beer. After 15 weeks self imposed abstinence, I went for:

A bottle of Poachers' Choice and,

A couple of pints of Jail Break in a pub in Devon with an old school mate and my brother.

I'm also reliably informed that @theclaud has a head start on me by having a pre-booze up sharpener of Dark Star Espresso Stout. I'll catch up later no doubt.
Poor form.

We waded our way through the hideously complex multiple bottle offers in Kidderminster Tesco and came away with two ordinary ciders, a Kopparberg cider with cinnamon, a St Stephanus abbey beer and something claiming to be Welsh whisky IPA from Brains.

I didn't try the ordinary cider, but the Kopparberg alcoholic apple juice with a dash of cinnamon was much more attractive and distinctive than either of the beers.

A fine evening in several pubs of Brighton with @theclaud and @User13710 plus Mrs rp. A good selection of ales, some with a hint of vanilla and a bitter finish. (TC has been teaching me beerbollox-speak)

The outstanding one for me was a Brighton Bier Dealers IPA. A bit much for a session ale at 5.1% though.
