That would buy Rich and I a pint of Kernel citra each and you would still have

Apparently there's a brothel above the bar. Not opened by Innis and Gunn I hasten to add, so unlikely to include a beer afterwards.

It's available from Thornbridge online at £8.50 a bottle (you've got to buy three for some reason) so in the overall scheme of pubby/restaurant mark-ups you got a bit of a bargain methinks. Still looks shoot mind you

Is that the Scotchish House of Lords perchance?

Mrs M is away, so I'm consoling myself with an entire bottle of beer.
This time, it's Guiness' Golden Ale (4.5% abv)
Certainly different to a run of the mill gold - a big hit of sweet malt, with perhaps a little of the smoky Guiness taste lurking there (or possibly my expectations tasting what isn't there). There are hops to balance it, but they're of the fresh, herby type, and never really come to the fore in the taste, to my mind at least. A nicely balanced beer, in the upper rank of Golden Ales (which, as we've remarked before, can tend to the bland). If you want a change from hop monsters, or like a malty brew in any case, give this a try.

Why do you use a double plug adaptor when there's a spare socket? We need to know stuff like this.

No way - that's just weird!!

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Talking of heavily advertised products (I'm afraid that ad for the Guinness "Golden" "Ale" makes me never want to try it), during the last ad break in the C5 cricket highlight coverage there was an ad for something called the "British Beer Alliance".
I don't regularly watch commercial telly, so I'm probably behind the times - the ad was released in January.
