Not yet but I suspect my local Poncey Beer Emporium will have it in soon so I'll be giving it a try

What with Cloudwater and Buxton seems you're singlehandedly keeping my local economy afloat

I spoke with a bottle shop's owners in Newcastle the other week, asking them if they had any DIPA left. They told me in no uncertain terms that they did not and would not have any Cloudwater product in stock... Ever!

They said that Cloudwater offered them exclusivity in the area on all beers but they saw DIPA on the shelves of another shop three days before they received their 1st shipment.

Oops

They wouldn't have definitely got that direct from the brewery though would they?

No idea. To be honest they could have talked a glass eye to sleep and I needed to go. I bought a couple of cans of Brew Dog and a bottle of Himalayan Cider.

The Cider was horrid

Last night jollies started off with these

The Ghost Ship was the best of the four. Hoppy, but not overbearingly so.

Once they had all been tippled. It was on to a couple of these

I know firework night is all about extravagance, but at £3.19 a 33cl bottle for the Flying Dog on the right? How many Mossirlarmis is that??

Collaboration between Thornbridge and Brooklyn. A Belgian ale aged in barrels with cider lees to get a secondary fermentation going.

One of the best things I've had this year. Light sour with a lovely apricot flavour.

A triumph!

Sainsburys. £1.75 for a tiny tin of lager?! Almost too ludicrous to miss....

Its not even got the decency to be lager colour.

Its hoppy after-taste gives one the urge to grow a full beard and don skinny trousers.

Don't forget the man bun !

Longman brewery do some good traditional ales but this one, Scary Man, is fantabuloso. Malty, molasses using all English hops.

I gave this old geezer another try but I just can't like it. At least I hadn't paid any mossirlamis for it...
