What are you drinking 2024.

[Jim Brewster]

Did you know that this is just cairngorm brewery rebranding for a different market.
Can’t remember which one of their range it is now but suspect one of stag or wildcat.

Oh I didn't know that, I got them in the same order but don't remember any of the Cairngorm ones tasting like it. Nicely balanced beer malty and just right with the hops.

Just went to order a Duchess de Bourgogne and was informed that it's 2-4-1 Tuesday, so another Saison before the two Duchess' . Definitely going to be messy.

Here's the beer menu for anyone that's interested.

I could happily drink Saison Dupont on draught eight days a week

Happy to report the Lost & Grounded Keller Pils cans are back to their best

I love Duvel. I think the standard Duvel is the true nectar of the godless, and the Tripple Hop - Citra is outstanding. I was very disappointed with the 666. What are your thoughts on it, @Donegal john ?

I don't mind the 666 but I think I prefer Westmalle Extra

Dregs of the fv of largish number 3, smash with larger malt and progress not bad not the best but ok, got 2 maybe 3L, first drink for 2 weeks had a really bad dose of what doc thinks was puemonia misses had it to

On these bad boys as luck would have it you can drink alcohol

Belgian pale kicked so put on the latest experimental brew.
I'm liking german hops at the moment, had some Novalager and a packet of Kolsch yeast..I would say this is like a golden ale in bitterness but with a lemon herbal flavour . Pils, Vienna and wheat - hops are Tettnang, Tradition hotside and pioneer(UK) & Saphir dry hop. 5.3% 40+ IBU

The staff told me when I popped into the shop one day. Didn’t have a beer I wanted but found the Nessie rebrand.

Are they 4 years out of date?

 

[Rodcx500z]

No, i googled nhs website, clearly states you can drink alcohol, but you might get the ten bob bits palpatations amonst a load of other reactions so it's all good

 

[Caramel Ox]

More beer52: the other day this Baltic porter which was competent if unexciting

Today this pale ale with lingonberry. It’s a bit meh:

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

I’m still finishing my English Pale because I need the keg tomorrow for a new batch of cider - friends coming at the weekend like a drop of cider so I can’t wait any longer.

 

[dave_77]

Found this in Asda, nice bitter

 

[Rodcx500z]

Largerish mk 3 with progress 1 day in the keg, thought it was a bit meh yesterday I think it will turn out awreet

No Tiger on the drinks list?

 

[Begbie]

No Tiger on the drinks list?

Thankfully no. Every other bar and restaurant here has it . I noticed last night while out for dinner, that you can get Tiger 'Crystal'

It’s pouring down and the pub is just across from the station. So think I’ll try and wait out the rain.

 

[Rodcx500z]

Coming good now, on first taste I was not to keen on the progress smash but on second try I am thinking it ain’t bad

 

[obscure]

It’s still raining time for another, drank a hell of a lot of Guinness Zero in January so nice to have actual Guinness for a macro beer it’s still remarkably good.

 

[YeastFace]

Dry stout. Kegged yesterday after spunding. Still needs some carbonation so I cheated with a pocket beer engine (Calpol syringe).

This had a small addition of Chateau Café, and it's really bumped up the coffee notes. Very pleased with this.
