Beer?

[User169]

Best named beer ever!

An imp stout aged on sherry barrels from To Ol. Lovely finish to the weekend.

Lil George's 3rd birthday píss up yesterday. I think a few kids were there too ....
The local wine shop is gradually getting taken over by crafty beers and have recently started to sell Kernel on draught which went down well, along with the Dark Star Hophead, also from the tap.

I heard Jonathan Ross call 3BM, de Ranke once, I think

I'm still reeling from 3BM's admission that he's a Thornbridge scab...

Like everyone else, anyway DP said there was a memo, I haven't had the other one yet. I did feel dirty but then as I said it was a gift and it would have been rude to refuse. And f*uck off and mind your own beeswax.

I wasn't going to have a beer tonight but I might now. I can hear a Duvel calling from the cellar.

Oh alright...

Topper trumps! Nice that 3BM's shed has a picture of you on the front, Rich. (On the right - normal, on the left - letting off steam in P&L. As JtM's wife might say (but I doubt it) "Very nice."

Thought I might have one lurking at the back of the cellar. Hook Norton Mild, pours a lovely chestnut colour, decent head fades away quite quickly, reasonable aroma considering it's mild, the taste is a lovely roasted malty flavour, the label suggest hops but it's not very hoppy at all but it doesn't need to be. All in all it's a very good beer, the sort of thing you could merrily chug away at all day, if you weren't working or were public sector.

Californian sour stout. Insanely lovely - like alcoholic balsamic vinegar.

Sounds weird. I'd give it a go.

They had "Chocolate Rain" from the same brewery, but 90 euros a bottle is a bit steep on a Tuesday. More of a cheeky Wednesday swifticle!
