Lovely. A lager style I've not knowingly had - properly amber nectar that is quite sweet with a decent depth of flavour.

I'm afraid that is a wine glass.

S'not really a lager. Its brewed with top fermenting yeast, although it is conditioned like a lager. Called "alt" as it's brewed in the old style, resisting that new-fangled pilsner as it swept across Germany. Its the closest thing you can get to real ale outside the UK.

My boss occassionally gives me a litre bottle from Schumacher, one of the four alt brewers in the Dusseldorf altstadt. They come with a one month drink by date which is always one month after rge bottling date, so its super fresh.

It's 3BM on the left but it can't be the late Charlton Heston on the right can it?

Dave and Phil Alvin, it's rock and roll, you wouldn't understand, stick to Alma Cogan, gramps.

I assumed it was the remaining members of Focus.

Is that a reference to a modern beat combo or my perceived lack of photographic skills?

As it happens, Phil (the singer) has managed to die twice so far.

This time tomorrow, I'll be in Kortrijk - for work reasons, so my social activity is already planned and is unlikely to involve decent beer. I was going to ask if anyone has any recommendations for beer shops in the town so I can at least buy some goodies to bring home to enjoy later, but then I remembered I'll only have hand luggage, so unless anyone knows anywhere that sells beer in 100ml sample bottles...

Pah!

Note to self: get them to book you on Eurostar next time, you idiot.
