Beer?

[vernon]

A can of Beavertown 8 Ball Rye IPA.

The perfect palate cleanser after a monumental Boxing Day fryup. Nice sharp taste and aftertaste. If I can find the energy to walk to the fridge I'll have a Neck Oil chaser.

I always thought they were the less funny rocky younger brothers of Victoria Wood.

Feck off then loser.

It's ok, I have finished all the available wine and am now back on the beer - I'd take a pic if I could fecking remember where my phone is; spoke to my mate on it earlier and told him I'd send a text tonight to confirm when I'd meet him in Edinburgh tomorrow and now I cannae find the bloody thing. He's over from Australia as well...I'm sure we'll find each other somehow.

Five Points outta my old manor, Hackney. I like this - not as citrusy as some, but has a lovely dank note.

Unicorn Black (Robinsons, 4.1% abv)

A lovely, treacley, malty aroma leads to a taste that's initially all chocolate and toffee, with smoky notes and a prickly hop bitterness coming through, and the latter staying into the aftertaste.It seems very slightly thin at times (compared to the rich fruit of Guiness' fabulous West Indies Porter, for example), but it's a nice, tasty stout, well worth trying.

Mrs M says: "Very nice." (and then sings the praises of stout as a style of beer).

Almost perfect photograph, JtM. Going to have to question the plug tops though; - they deserved to be matching, or out of shot.
Mrs M is beginning to appreciate her beer as she likes her husband it seems. Excellent news for all concerned - especially us.

Kermit makes a bid for freedom from the oven

I am just off to Murrayfield for the Edinburgh v Glasgow rugby, my beer will possibly be limited to what ever standard fare they have at the rail station and the stadium. But I hope to squeeze in a few better beers en route and afterwards if possible.

Caley Best might be an option. Currently on the world's busiest train, one hour of standing...

Didn't know they had Chilton Railways up there.

I'm off to buy some beer, M&S here I come...
