It's clearly a jolly with a thin veil of 'work' draped over it.
Getting paid to haben ein Kopfschmerzen is pretty cool though.
In other news, my little boy has decided that he fancies Munich for a Spring weekend píss up.

Work yesterday, but decided to stay on for the night (at my own expense!)
Just recovered with some Schwartz beer and some unspeakable sausages. You slice them open and squish out the loose insides. I now know that "blut" is blood, but prolly should have worked that out.

Had to come into town for a haircut this afternoon so I've used that as an excuse to call in at the Black Dog, where I'm pleased to find they have Pig & Porter's Red Spider Rye on at the moment. Not only is it a most excellent beer, I named it - Sean the brewer likes to use local inspiration for his beers, so when he was looking for a name for his new red rye ale a couple of years ago, I suggested Red Spider, after a famous local café (which was much loved but alas closed down about 20 years ago). Very pleased to finally get the chance to try it. It's rather excellent - a rich malty amber ale with a gentle undertone of peppery rye spiciness. The citrus and pine character of the Centennial and Columbus hops is also evident. Fairly light body and dangerously drinkable for a 5% beer...

Cruiser Atlantic Pale Ale in hipster cafe. Not bad, zesty aroma, nice refreshing hoppy taste.

^^^^ I have to say they both look good.
Good back story on the red spider too.
I do like the broad rim glasses - remind me of schooners.

If we drink it out of our boots though, it tastes worse, and makes it easier to observe the boycott.
Anyroad;
Wye Valley Brewery - Butty Bach (4.5% abv, bottle conditioned)
A nice balance of sweet and hop flavours in this - initially sweetly fruity with a slight caramel-ish note, with grassy/fresh bitterness coming through almost straight away, but not muscling to the fore in the taste. Not as treacly as a winter beer, or as aggressively hoppy as a summer beer, so ideal for springtime, I reckon.
Drunk out of my Primus Haacht Tour of Flanders glass, as it's the start of the classics this weekend.
Mrs M says: "Very nice."

This was a prez, Triple FFF Brewery, which I guess is FFFFFFFFF. You're The Best Christmas Ale. It's low on ABV (4%) for a Chrissy ale but it's very nice, citrus, malty, hoppy finish. Anyway Mrs McG has been poor on her stock control so I've had to hand this over. Had a sneaky swig though.
