Beer?

[Chromatic]

Some of the lower strength bitters are excellent, Hooky Best for example, first rate stuff and only 3.5%.

I had some of that last weekend, not bad at all.

Barrel collecting for a beer fest today. Check the new beer shop at fff.

Picked up a couple of unusual ones, the pink label is Omnipollo Arzachel session Imperial IPA whatever that is.

Sounds like a right load of poncey old bollocks.

I'd give it a go, mind.

Had some Wiper and True ales last night. They were nice enough; that's a recommendation Mrs JtM would approve of. The Wylam limonata was nicely pitched too.

Airlines...beer...don't go well together

Just flown KLM long haul. Some decent champagne, really nice cocktails, ok-ish wine (although the dessert wine was splendid), good malt whisky

.....and Heineken

Can they not put a bit of effort in?

Bad Seed Brewery session ipa (their capitalisation, not mine, the illiterate hippies).

It's cloudy, ahem, "unfined and unfiltered" but I forgive it because it's rather bloody lovely. 4% ABV.

Mind you, even I could make something nice out of Sorachi Ace, Comet _and_ Chinook!

I can only imagine the look of joy on Mrs DP's face...

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Mrs DP exists? I have always imagined her analogous to Elizabeth Mainwarring.

She does, I've met Mrs DP...or someone pretending to be Mrs DP.

Purple Panther (Hatherwood Craft Beer Company, 5% abv)

A Lidl exclusive this one, at a very guilt making 89p a bottle. 89p! Best at slightly more than cellar temperature, this is, as the label states, muscular, with a lot of smoky coffee-ish flavour, and some nice, underlying treacle/caramel. A nicely lingering aftertaste too.

Mrs M says: "Very nice."

Good to see proper cappage making a rare appearance on the beer thread
Worth 89p in itself.

This Centennial is a 7.5% beauty.

A bit of malt with not too much over the top hoppiness.
