I am entirely off beer until I have lost the weight I want to lose...

I am entirely off beer until I have lost the weight I want to lose...

On a happier note, my delivery of beer arrived today.

I'm restocked with:

La Trappe, Rochefort, Delirium, St Bernadus, Orval, Duvel and a couple of others.

Edit: and a Geuze Boon, quite excited, haven't tried one of these before...

 

[longers]

Because I've bloody well earned it I went round by the health food shop tonight and picked up three bottles of beer I like and haven't had for a while.

Orval

Well, I'm off beer!

I have to eradicate all forms of anything tasty and vaguely enjoyable from my diet for the next few weeks and gradually introduce them one by one. So I'll just be watching from afar.

That's a bummer, Mort. Is this one of those 'find something that's disagreeing with you' type things?

Fingers crossed for you it's not the beer if that's the case!

I don't suppose that I can mention the Orval I had last night was an incredibly tasty beer then? The Delirium Nocturnum was good too!

Hopefully you get the right answer and quickly too!

I like the fact they call offies health food shops round your way, longers. Come on then, spill the beans - name of the beer please?!!

It really is a health food shop!

That's an old photo as there's no canned beer anymore and quite a different range.

The beer was 3 different bottles by the Millstone Brewery. All good.

I can vouch for the fact that it does sell a very good range of bottled beers for a health food shop. Not been in for a while now I brew my own

Just purchased a couple of bottles of Orkney Brewery Skull Splitters, well worth a try if you haven't. It's quite a strong beer at 8.5 abv and comes in a 330ml bottle. The taste is lovely, reminds me of a Thomas Hardy Ale almost, but not quite as meaty if you know what I mean.

Great headline on the front page of one of the commuter papers here today:

"Wife beater beer: British men slap their wives after Belgian beer"

I kept it local last night:

Cor! My first visit here and I get offered a beer, not bad at all.

I'll have anything that is over 3% but under 5.5% abv, and NOT called Pilsner Urquell

Something like an Old Speckled Hen or Taylor's Landlord would be nice.

Taylor's Landlord.. marvelous, I'll I have one of those too... welcome to CycleChat...*raises glass - 'chink'*
