@theclaud , @rich p was it "Hobgoblin Gold" that we drank in the pub in Llandudno?

Aldi have just started stocking it at the eyewatering price of £1.17/500ml bottle. Might have to buy a few to reminisce

I believe we settled on that after a bit of experimentation. It was gluggable!

That was the one. I imagine the 100-mile freezing wet ride with headwind had some influence on our perceptions of its deliciousness.

Just to say that my lurgy is ongoing, and I'm now into my 4th day without alcohol, let alone beer.

Beer festival tonight. Yumtus.

The beer chums have just released their latest brew - an Imp Stout. Lots of drop flavour and a hint of bay leaf.

Tony Hadley out of Spandex Ballet seems like a fairly decent sort of a chap, keep in mind it is in the Telegraph (not that I read it, natch) and it is in the financial section so there's a bit of talk about money and spending and stuff so don't get all sniffy. The main point is he's into brewing beer and on that basis I forgive him for being in a shite band.

A porter from a Chinese beer chum (including non-ironic speeling mistoke). He's now moved back to China, but gave me this one before he left. Classic porter flavour - not too strong and perfect carbonation. Very good!

[QUOTE 3682812, member: 259"]Banbury? I got a Facebook update about it from my extremely left-wing friend from school. If you see someone about 7 feet tall in a Sabs t-shirt, don't mention that you quite like Tony Hadley![/QUOTE]

Tell him I'm the one with the UKIP bow tie.

Stone City released an amazingly gorgeous spicey 8.7% Imperial Belgian IPA for May Day, and then re-released their 9.0% Green Goddess Imperial IPA too... which meant it took me a little longer to get home from work the other day than it should have.

It was only there for the foto op!

No, it's not bad. Definitely going on my Aldi shopping list.
