Bah!...

Not bad for a fiver! I get the impression it's not a very limited edition this year.

I'm having a Bass Drop Imperial Stout from Tiny Rebel. I was kinda hoping for more complex flavours from it, but on the plus side, I've only had the one and I'm slightly plastered.

Schlenkerla.- doppelbock this time. Still smokey, but a sweeter finish than the maerzen. Quite pokey at 8%.

I've just been out to a new seafood and craft beer pub but I couldn't bring myself to pay thru the nose for the beers, so I satisfied my thirst by washing down the scallops and crab with Harveys best.

Back to Durham last night for a pint of Hydes Original in the Head of Steam, which tasted of very little at all. The bar staff are a bit annoying too, having loud conversations about their tats and piercings when they should be serving customers. Shame really because they have the widest range of beers I've seen in such a small pub but I don't think I'll be going back.
Cheered myself up with a pint of Maxim Maximum Speed in the Market Tavern, a trad English bitter and a couple of pints of Adnams Ghost Ship a 4.2% pale ale. From Adnams website, "This beer has good assertive pithy bitterness with a malty backbone and a lemon and lime aroma. Ghost Ship is brewed with a selection of malts – Pale Ale, Rye Crystal and Cara. We use Citra, and a blend of other American hop varieties, to create some great citrus flavours."
Lovely stuff - like drinking pop.

yes!

It's probably not as surprising as it would have been when first released, pre the onslaught of other citrussy, hop heavy beers, but it's a reliable good 'un that's fairly easy to lay hands on.

Newcastle Brewdog. Abstrakt 17, a triple rye imperial porter. Ink black, velvety smooth, tons of coffee, roasty flavour, not too carbonated. 10.9 ABV, there is an alcoholly taste in there, hardly surprising, long finish. £17 for 375ml, top that you cheapskate chumps!!!

 

[jongooligan]

How much?

 

[threebikesmcginty]

£17

Weihenstephan Hefe. Superb, all the usual lemon, citrus, yeast, wheat, yadda yadda - lovely hazy colour, @Crackle head, bit of newbie trouble on the pour. Nice easy-drinking follow on to the heavy AB17.
