Beer, revisited

[verreauxi]

Classy Wetherspoons, apparently ran out of gallon in Essex.

That's some old school bar-fightin' right there...or should I say old stool.

Been enjoying these over the past few days. They are good alone, but I'm also into mixing "down" the Gose's with some PA or IPA to cut the all-out sourness. These are excellent mixed together:

I've only ever found two things that were watermelon flavo(u)red that I like...an actual Watermelon and Jolly Ranchers, which don't taste that much like a watermelon. Nobody can seem to do it right.

Not sure this one gets it exactly right, but it tastes like "watermellon simulation", which is good enough for me. Plus, it's beer!

@COYBL25 and @paulf they're now selling 10% Faxe in B&M in Speke!

We don’t seem to have a general booze thread so I’ll ask this here

Been thinking of giving Sake a go. Any fans of it here who could recommend a reasonably priced brand to start with?

Try FFS ; moving swiftly on, I've had it a few times but haven't noticed much difference, but I couldn't honestly tell you the brands.

This a certainly in the category of "don't need/luxury item" but I picked up a few of these can coolers from RTIC (relatively inexpensive) and they really work well keeping your beer cold on hot summer days. I have them for both 12oz and 16oz cans.
