Beer, revisited

[centralTon]

Had the Gamma Ray and Neck Oil on draught, great stuff... I do like the Bloody Ell but at 7% odd it's not a session beer

Never had any on draught, but got a great bottle shop in Glasgow which has those and more on a regular basis. Must look out for them on draught.

To be honest I've only seen them on draught in London, bottle shop in Stoke sells the tins though and you can buy most of the Beavertown stuff on Amazon, 12 cans of Neck Oil for £27 I think

Leffe all day long. Leffe blonde is ace and makes me happy (6.6%). I've just done 3 bottles and my poo week no longer matters. It's also really nice tasting. Only outdone by leffe nectar

Last nights offerings - can't believe I've never had the Taylor's Boltmaker before. Beautiful stuff.

Also had a dreadful pint of Greene King IPA.

Greene King beers are nasty, like the Skol of the ale world.

Agreed with the Greene King ales being nasty, but personally I do not like Cumberland either. The rest are all lovely though!

Cumberland ale doesn't kinda taste like the sausages though so kudos to them former that. It's not pleasant though

 

[ritterefc]

Ohh. Innis & gunn are super tasty and super % wise too.

Doom bar, black sheep and hob goblin are also top picks

It's an aquired taste, a but like Sam Smiths. You either like it or don't. It needs to be well kept otherwise it can have an after taste.

Just back from 10 days in Italy and the highlight was Il Santo Bevatore in Venice. 20 guest beers changing continuously, fantastic selection of bottles, house made Gin and amazing selection of Cicchetti (Italian tapas). we had...

Porter House - Oyster Stout, similar to Brewdog Prototype Milk Stout,
La Trappe - Dubbel, typical Belgian Dubbel,
Birificio Brewfist - Grapefruit Saison (wow) sharp, fruity, refreshing and the perfect drink in the heat,
Birificio Italiano - Nigredo Black IPA, coffee, cream, hoppiness and a pleasant bitterness,
Borderline Brewery - American Oat Brown Ale, smooth and creamy and didn't taste like 7.4%

Each beer was 7euros for 40ml, but totally worth it...would go back.

What's a poo week, or shouldn't I ask ?

A rather nice ale and readily available ale I purchased before from Bargain Booze. Will be buying a few more of these!

spent a week in Brazil - 3 days in Curitiba and 4 in Florianopolis - lots of great beer. tupiniquim polimango on draught at Beer Boss was great.

Off the ale today have an important meeting tonight! With these .

 

[Goonymook]

for me the most recent brew that had a significant impact on my senses was the golden drac a fine full bodied and rich belgian ale and the cover art is out of 80s metal band
