La Vermontoise from Blaugies/Hill Farmstead. A real band-aid flavour to this one I've seen beers described over the years as having band-aid flavour, but never really believed it - now I do. On the other hand,very dry,lovely pale colour and super carbonation - but the band-aid!!

Does "band aid" taste like plasters used to when I was little?

Imagine that plus germoline :P

It's exactly like that Mossy.

Like I said, I didn't believe it, but now I've tasted it I can't shake the idea. You've made it even worse by suggesting germolene - I'm tasting that too now.

I've had to pour it. Such a shame: it's super dry, hoppy, a bit funky and nicely carbonated.

Just when I was thinking "hhhmmm, this porter's okay but it's a bit light bodied" I noticed the ticket which says "light bodied porter".

Tasting notes: portery but light

... And on to

A modern best bitter, I rather like it. Chestnut red/brown but bitter. Lacks body like the porter but still good. I used it to wash out the taste of this:

Which, you'll see, is a Tripel, from a keg and described as spicy and warm (8.5%). To my mind, it's sour and yak.

The landlord was good enough to let me have a small taster. It was plenty.

I suppose it makes it easier to get plastered?

Badinage at its best.

Oh, and stop posting the 'prices' Mossy - especially the 'expensive' ones @ £3.30 a pop. Two of those don't even get you one in Wen.

someone had to say it....

Sounds like a track by The Fall...

I wasn't intending to drink beer this evening, but it turns out that Tuesday is the new Wednesday, and a friend had a birthday. That accounts for the Hop Kick and the Hop Angeles. This is the nightcap.

^ Moths, jazz, Russia...an eclectic mix. Lots of ragged-trousered volumes on the shelves to offer solace in non-beer moments.
Don't suppose they get much use these days.

That CCCP book is concretetastic, the jazzer stuff is handy for lighting the fire.

And the trainspotter mag is, I assume, research for the next production...
