Beer?

If you're only on the way to Orkney, you're not in the dark yet. And if you're driving there you're a nobber. Take the train or fly - far quicker and far more relaxing. And you can drink while you travel.

Little Bitter That (Brew Foundation, 3.8% abv)

One from this year's Nantwich Food and Drink festival. Billed as a session bitter, this has a lot of biscuity malt, a fair bit of caramelly sweetness, and the citrussy hop finish of a good best bitter, and doesn't seem insubstantial or light. Definitely punching above that 3.8%, and jolly nice.

Mrs M says: "Very nice."

It looks like it's called Artic Convoy, but the picture on the pump is of warships rather than lorries. So either it is called Artic Convoy and someone hasn't done their spell-check, or else the background of the photo is even more blurred than it looks.

[edit]

Looks as if someone's hurriedly corrected the pic on their website..

Stewart Brewing just mentioned on twitter that they have a new collaboration beer with de Molen due out shortly; should be good

The Stewart beers I've sampled in my Beer52 boxes have been braw so far! Tweedies in Grasmere have a 7.8% IPA ffrom Eden Brewery called Psy . Cho on tap...probably not one for a skool night! I did try a 1/3 pint measure Friday night and it could definitely make your head feel like a Dothraki horde just went through it if you overdo it. I have a bottle tucked away in my stash ready for my days off anyway.

I reckon it's time to call time on stupid fecking mini kilner jars showing the colour of beer. Twattery.

Take a lump hammer in with you and crush their mini kilner nobendery.

I do not frequent establishments who partake of such twattery; should I ever encounter one, I intend to take the jars with me to the loo.
