Bloodline - a Blood Orange Ale from Flying Dog. This is pretty good. A nice marmelade flavour, but not too bitter.

Golden Ale (Asda Extra Special (Shepherd Neame) 4.5%)
A substitution (for local brewery Beartown's "Kodiak Gold"). I have to say that I don't really get all the flavours described on the label - there's a distinct hoppy aroma, followed by a taste that I think is biscuity, although quite refreshing, with hop bitterness - I didn't really pick up anything strongly floral or citrussy, personally, although the beer isn't bad at all. I've drunk more interesting golds, but also golds that were much too thin and insubstantial. Pleasantly middling, I'd say.
Mrs M says: "I liked that very much."

Fyne Maverick Goose, pretty good dark malty bitter, easy on the hops and with a decent finish, a well balanced beer*

A yeastie boy with a homemade curry at Kid no.1 - and a Marble Earl Grey. Great combo.
I'm home now and I've been putting off this one. A
Thornbridge Peanut Butter Brown ale...
May the Lord forgive me...
Actually, there's no hint of peanut butter, thankfully. Quite a quaffable but average glug. I feel a bit robbed cos I wanted to dislike it.Especially the peanut butter bit.
