Beer?

[nickyboy]

Pint of Thornvridge Jaipur in Spinning Jenny T2 Manchester airport. Sounds like it might be the last good one for a while

Are you off somewhere? You kept that quiet

Where's that unlike button....

I'd put Hook Norton Flagship in there a really good BC IPA, it's excellent and not too mental on the hop front. I'd also give an honourable mention to Worthington White Shield for flying the IPA flag for nearly 200 years, these days it just gets shoved aside as not being enough of an IPA when the IPA market has moved into a super-hop zone and WS has stayed where it is, not literally though as it's been moved twice in the last few years as is now nestled deep in Coors territory. Jaipur is a winner, Lagunitas is very good too. There's lots of good stuff on that list but it's more a hop competition than a list of IPAs, I rec.

White Shield, lovely, and just like Thornbridge and Oakham stuff it's in sensible sized bottles.

I've not had it for a while so I think I'll have to quaff some this weekend.

Brewed a new one this morning. A 100% brett ale pitched with Brettanomyces claussenii - cos it was originally isolated in Britain by Dr Claussen and likely infected almost all British breweries until well into the 20thC. Online consensus says it kicks off big pineapple flavour, so I've chucked in a load of mosaic and will dry hop it with more. Hopefully I'll also get some horse blanket and sweat, but its seemingly not as funky as other Brett strains.

Kinda get the feeling I might of wasted a decent load of mosaic. I'ts finally started fermenting, but smells like a wet dog and there's nowhere near the hop presence I was hoping for. Ho hum.

You've made Chardonnay

After an evening on the beach with some bottles from M&S, I decided to call in to the Alehouse for lasties...

Died and gone to heaven. Pimeyden Morsian in BrewDog in Turku. A cross between Mackesons and Old Peculier (before they sold out and ruined it).

Forgot the photo... it's quite strong

Outta Oklahoma! Funky Gold Simcoe a dry hopped sour ale.

Slightly tart, a bit funky, quite vinous and totes delish.

These people are so good. Not had a duff brew from them yet.

In an otherwise beery desert Morrisons supermarket came up trumps

Some Mws Pws from Snowdonia for me. Getting all set for the first match in a month in front of the TV watching football

Democracy and beer. What could be a better combination?

[edit]
The beer will calm a rampaging minotaur. The envelope is a small contribution to rescuing Europa from the bull of Brexit.

Here's all of what I bought. Since the shop/bar was chocka and there was nothing especially interesting on tap I decided not to have a sharpener out. I don't know that getting through all of this lot today is entirely recommended.
