Salty kiss...

... At least you have something to clean the worktop with
Oh dear. Is it that bad? Should I have the extra strong mild first?
 
I have been to Lords, ladies and gentlemen.
It was such a heavy day, it might more appropriately be called lourds.
It is a sweaty kick-off to the Euro footy, so I raise a glass to a) Ian, who had already 'gobbled' and b) to say that this 'Gold' is a refreshing glug - 4.5%ABV with a good, refreshing grapefruity finish. (Probably needed after a couple of Pouilly Fumé and Vosne Romanée with scotch eggs and samosas.)
'Gold' is available chez Aldi for just over a 1/2 Mossirlami per 500ml. Bargain.

I am having the extra strong mild first, because I thought it would go better with a steak-and-kidney pudding.

It's a mild. It's brewed to an 1832 recipe but it's "extra hopped". It's a reddish brown colour. It's 9.5%. It's a collaboration between the Buxton, Oedipus and Oproer breweries.

It's farking amazing. I can't even begin to unpack it, but I like it.

I can't decide whether Oedipus should have fed it to the Sphinx or drunk some himself before going to the crossroads. So here's a burst of Stravinsky in Japanese and Latin to confuse even more.

Did you try texting 020 3322 4252?

"Hello. My name is srw. I'm from Buckinghamshire. I need help. My issue is that I can't decide whether to open the next bottle of beer yet."

Too slow, Lords - I did.



I'm allergic to beer in tins, but this isn't actually at all bad. I'm not sure why it's Gooseberry Gose (whatever Gose is - fancy schmancy foreign beer probably) when it actually contains more Sea Buckthorn than Gooseberry. I don't know what Sea Buckthorn tastes like, but the goosegogs are definitely evident. As is the salt.

Presumably the one pant on the tin is what you're supposed to end up wearing after having the eponymous seaside snog.

Possibly one to take on Poseidon's chariot.
