Beer?

[threebikesmcginty]

I've bought a selection of M&S ales but they heated up in the back of the car.

Is that your stress?

You could always start another dull thread about it

I only start interesting threads and it's likely to be duller than your cooker hood thread.

72 hits on that one - I'll leave it at that.

Okay, sorachi saison from Adnams, via M&S, up next.
What can I say, underwhelming will have to suffice. I'm a man of few words...

...but 26 letters, and assorted characters. The detritus in the foreground is the result of my futile attempt to repair my laptop keyboard after sploshing a glass of scotch over it. The evils of drink in a nutshell.

my laptop keyboard

It appears hitting it that many times with a mallet does not repair it.

You might be onto something here, you could make a game out of the keys whereby you make words with the letters. I can see the words 'you complete moron'.

Are you enjoying the footie book, Rich? (I want to get it for Gareth as a birthday pres. - need to know if it's good enough for the ordinary folk, as well as the erudiscenti!)

Phew! I just glanced at that and thought you had been cruel...and written 'you complete marmion'. Thank goodness.

I can get that on cask most weeks at my local. Sometimes I even have to pay for it.

So far, so good although I'm only a short way through it. It appeals to my Italianophile side.

Incidentally, I threw the deconstructed keyboard randomly on the table and lo and behold...

My boys bought me a bottle of Scarborough Fair IPA from this brewery for Fathers' Day and jolly nice it was too. I hope yours is as good

I'd photoshop out the Biere D'Or in the background if I were you unless you want hate mail from the Beer Thread luvvies

At best it can be described as thirst quenching. "Why waste good beer on a basic function", is my host's justification for serving it.

I went into (hawk, spit) Tesco for cakes for the office and seem to have come away with beer.

Last night I had a bottle of St Peter's Cream Stout as a nightcap. Very nice - just hoppy enough to balance the strong alcohol and with lovely roasted chocolate malty things.

It's the same when I've been to Texas, you wonder why they drink shíte like Shiner and Lone Star but when it's a 110 degrees you just need a cold one.

Judging by the pic, Vernon, you were embarking upon a cans, film festival. Any murders yet? Be careful when ridin' on the hoods.
