Five Points Railway Porter, couple of months out of date but none the worse for it, in fact settled nicely into its dotage. Good porter this one, nearly Kernel standard, complemented with a couple of squares of chocolate with toffee and Himalayan salt. As they say in the Netherlands - totes yumtus.

Love the glass, far better than the rubbish carling I'm drinking, only having two cans, barely had a drink all year and out all day at the rugby tomorrow with mates so thought I but remind myself what it's like :smile:

It's a bit more complicated than that...
I drank the Whitbread Goldings one - because I'm allergic to wasting food. My memory is that it was just ordinary Leffe with a tiny hint of hoppy stuff. There's a more contemporaneous view upthread somewhere.

Anyway. Last night at the CC drinks. A Brown Ale called Loose Cannon from the Nelson Brewery (presumably Lancashire), Autumn Glory from the Exe Brewery - toasty and wheaty - and a Brown Ale which wasn't Swiss beer at all but Inbetween by Sudwerk, brewed exclusively for 'spoons by Everards of Lancashire.

I suspect I stole someone's pint at the end, because my last was cold and fizzy, so I suspect it was the Erdinger DunkelWeiss others were on. But I was too far gone to care.

Oh, and @rvw texted me yesterday with news of the Red Squirrel brewery shop opening up round the corner from home. I think she's noticed it will carry cider as well as beer.
 
I have just returned home from playing my first 90 minutes of competitive football in 8 years; in that 8 years I have aged badly and the 3 stone in weight I have put on has not helped. I am in considerable pain; however, I did manage to swing past the local beer vendors and pick up a selection to help ease my pains this evening. Undecided as to what kind of beer would best ease my pains I opted for 3 IPAs and 3 dark beers, and also got a free sample (perhaps indicative that I spend too much money there!)

Duvel or drivel as autocorrect would have it. Over fizzed Belgian pop, which I don't actually like that much but it is strong and I can feel my grumpy mood slipping away........
