You can't have your cake and eat sausages too!
Nice picture presentation, Rich. Meanwhile, DP needs to 'splash out' on even more beer. They can't play 'ladies football', but...

I endured drinking Fosters out of plastic pint glass at £5 a pint yesterday for a short time (AC/DC concert at Hampden) before deciding it was too awful to continue drinking...and then got refused entry to a club 2-3 hours after my last drink as I'd "had enough" according to the doorman, pathetic little prick that he was - there's no point arguing with tossers like that tho so I wandered off in bemusement as he allowed others who were almost unable to stand into the club. I then went to another pub and got served by one of the world's grumpiest barmen...if I had been as píshed as the doorman claimed I was I'd have told him he was a miserable farker, but decided to call it a night and went for something to eat instead. No pics I'm afraid, just a rant.

Sorry to hear your woe, Marmion. Anyone would think you were in England - not the land of the Mcfreeswingings!

I've managed to put together a picture to recreate the scene in the most authentic detail possible.

First up today is Ska Brewing's Modus Hoperandi which along with Ahopalypse Now are the two worst brewing puns on the planet.
It jumped off the shelf for no other reason than I've been to a few ska gigs lately
TBH I'm not sure if I've got the palate or the vocabulary to describe these beers adequately but this one tasted more malty than a lot of the IPA's I've been drinking recently.
Second up is Beavertown Gamma Ray. It's been reviewed on here before so I've nothing to add other than I'd have it again in a heartbeat. Had to buy this for the classy artwork which is worth another showing.
I'll keep popping in here but intend to drink a bit less and ride a bit more in the near future so cheers everyone.

A beer from yesterday. A Radler, something that I thought would be similar to the Radlers that I drank in Switzerland and Germany I.e. a weak but refreshing beer shandy.
My expectations were exceeded, 3.4% alcohol and a full beer flavour. No hint of the Grapefruit soda.

On Mondays, you can try Restaurant 't Klooster on Vrouwjuttenland - the burgers are very decent and the bar next door has the best selection in town.
(Burgerz used to be a pancake place owned by ex-Chelsea and Saints footballer Ken Monkou)

I might just have discovered why American-style IPAs exist.
Picture the scene. It's a hot night in London town. You have been elevated to a spiritual plane by the Hepworth exhibition at the Tate*. The champagne is too warm - it was poured too long ago. The canapés are too slow to emerge.
There's a bottle of Siren's Soundwave IPA on offer. It's more like a light G&T than a beer - an infusion of aromatics in a slightly sparkling base. And it's refreshing despite not being cold.
But it's not beer, and half an hour later the dryness in the mouth from the excessive hops is quite unattractive.
*and the three glasses of champagne beforehand.
