Who's gonna be the first to get their laughing gear around this rare delight?!

Mack Brewery used to own the accolade for the worlds' most northern brewery. And quite rightly it did too - though the beer is pish.

Longyearbyen - nice name. From ice pops to nice hops? Might be worth a visit but I'd soon be on the slippery slope...

I reckon I'm in with a shout. All of my Glaciologist Friends™ spend several months of the year in Svalbard...

Rebel Brewery Cornwall, Penryn IPA. Nice hoppy beer, it said serve chilled but not cold, so is cold colder than chilled then?!

Very nice visit by the famille DP earlier, splendid chap that he is he bought me some nice beers included two of his own brews made with that fancy kit, really looking forward to trying these. Nice to meet another Beer thread stalwart.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Certainly didn't leave 3BM acres empty-handed - got a boot full Hook Norton - thanks very much 3BM and thanks for letting us disturb you. By the way, good to see he was already boozing when we got there!

Just a snifter to settle the nerves...

Just catching up on ten pages of the thread (jeez, you lot are some pissheads) and though this was worth commenting on...

Here's a proper thin glass, second from left.

Such a classic, it even has a name - the nonic pint.

Anyway, I did an audax yesterday, the Straight Outta Hackney 200, which started and finished at the Salisbury Hotel on Green Lanes. Great selection of hipster beers. I celebrated completing a lovely ride with a pint of West Coast IPA. Can't remember the brewery but it was rather good. (Also had a bag of crisps to replenish my electrolyte levels. Science, innit.)

Then it was back to the org's house for a very 'sociable' barbecue - he'd laid on a keg of Five Points Red Hook IPA, which alas didn't last very long. Cracking stuff though. Fortunately, he also had a stash of Beavertown Neck Oil and Gamma Ray in tins, and bottles of Five Points Pale Ale and something else.

I could happily have stayed being 'sociable' all night but my wife was expecting me back at a 'reasonable' time (though I don't see what's unreasonable about 1.30am, which is the time the last train would have got me home).

Terrible moisture-ring error by the stylist, particularly on a benchmark worktop. Glad the showcap business has died a death.

The pleasure's all yours...bar steward, where's my beer?

Pint of Wainwright Golden Ale at Old Trafford cricket ground, Manchester whilst watching Lancashire lose to Warwickshire in the sunshine. Pleasant enough and a decent price in the Members bar

^ A beautiful picture, Nickyboy. The only difference between your beer photo and one of threeliggersmcginty's?
You mention paying for yours...
Match must have kept your attention though!
