First for the evening, my Hoppy Pale ale of Kent.
Rich and ...... hoppy! Cheers

Moving quickly on, my Camden Amber ale. Deeper Citrus flavours.
Then SWMBO'd demanded a glass of red, before the lamb was to be served would you believe!?
So of course I decanted the organic, Green, kind to forests etc. Claret for her:
A bottle of Carrefour's best.
And it's really good Claret!

Nightcap.
So, what's your verdict on the Experiment?

I bought my Braumeister direct from Germany skipped the 20% tax was sent in the post for 80 Euro.Peculiarly we bought the Lindemans not in England but on a day trip in a Calais booze store!
There are even apps. now to reclaim the lesser French VAT as you pass through the ferry or Eurotunnel customs zones to make it fully duty free.
It makes economic sense for us as we live close to the Channel port of Dover.
And of course we buy French cheeses to bring home too.

Agree with 531Man it is a question of economics but there are some very good Australian cheap wines less than $10 a bottle about 5 quid. McGuigan Black Label Merlot is $7.00 a bottle I used to buy a fair bit of Wolf Blass Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz an expensive wine I used to get with a discount but there are others far cheaper and just as good.

Tonight Nancy Naylor Landlady not many of these left, not much of my bottled beer left full stop, apart from stouts.
Followed by a Cali Common.

It’s a very tasty whiskey, but it doesn’t have a taste of hops. Which is probably a good thing!

This was a present from my brother. He works in Glasgow Airport. The duty free do staff sell offs when lines are coming to an end. Every now and then he picks up some corking bargains.Seen one in aricefe airport last night a special edition glenfidich a snip at only €210

A lot of these whiskies are airport specials and you don’t see them outside.
When in Wales do as the locals do, anniversary today 35 years and birthday Thursday
Wheeler dealers and a nice dry stout.
Ingenious use of a fridge bottle shelf there.
