Arbor Solaris this lunchtime. Richly hopped, citrus notes and a dry finish. A good session pint.

This stuff is so good, it's in my top ten I rec, absolutely first rate. It's reasonably pokey at 8.4% but it's not one of those beers overwhelmed by its own alcohol content. Been churning it out for well over 200 years so they must be doing something right.

Yes, that's a beaut and tastes even better if you drink it out of the wood and glass contraption donated kindly by DP. The only problem is that you like a right charlie.

I'm on an Erdinger dunkel. Dunno how it got into my beer cupboard but it won't be getting in there again. Pretty ordinary.

Back from a week's cycling holiday in Catania, Sicily. Lots of beer drunk cos it was still bloody hot. I'm pleased to say that small local breweries are starting to get their act together there. Still mainly bland lagers in the bars but if you look hard enough, good stuff can be found:

This was the Timpa from Yblon Brewery in Ragusa, Sicily,and jolly hoppy and nice it was too. EUR5 per glass. I can imagine @Marmion salivating at all that cappage too

This was Mosaik Bar, probably Catania's best beer bar.

In quite a few restaurants they had a decent bottled beer selection. I drank a lot of this which was sometimes a struggle @7.5%

Here's the beer menu to give an idea of what's on offer

So loads of Moretti if that's your thing. But actually plenty of good stuff too if you're willing to put a bit of effort in to find it. If anyone's going to that part of the world PM me and I'll let you know the bar details etc as there were a couple more well worth a visit

It's a bit more complicated than that...

So did you try the "Tennents Super"? Sounds like a bit of an exotic brew.
