What beer are you drinking and WHY might anyone be interested?

I believe you’re right, that’s why I retired so I could concentrate on my beer drinking … every day is a weekend …

Enjoying a pale ale from my own shed so to speak. A Saison is boiling in the background

Nice piece of kit.
Could you tell what it is please?

Camphuw · August 12, 2020, 11:48am

Lunch
A reward for looking after a neighbour’s dog.
Too hot for long walks … a pee and rehydrate …

Thanks It’s a Speidel Braumeister 20 liter. This is the new version with an integrated cooling jacket. I’ve had my fair share of problems with it, but it now finally works as it should.

Liverpool Brewing Company. As good as it looks.

Lousy beer with great company.

I seem to keep stumbling over high %ABV beers .. I have to admit that on the face of it this beer would not have been one I would have chosen .. it’s Belgian and it’s spiced .. but my beer man cajoled me into trying it and I’m really pleased he did .. a very very nice brew .. deceptively strong .. well it is 9.5% so I suppose it’s not all that deceptive ..

I thought it was rather a nice touch that they included the malt and the hops on the side of the bottle for those than can read the fine print after drinking one of them ..

When the pubs opened after lockdown, a pint of freshly poured cold Guinness was first to be ordered.
Just can’t replicate it at home.

I’ve had quite a few of theirs from a company that deliver craft beer online.and at really good price. Liked most of them to. My Nan was originally from The Black Isle so it keeps a tradition I supposem

Tooheys?

A Shipyard IPA to wash down the Indian takeaway. Goes rather well with a Veg Balti.

No pic. Bottle in recycling bin.

God no. Thankfully not that bad,

Back to the Horse and Jockey in Lichfield for the first time in 5 months.

Two session beers, neither very interesting.

Mike - I think better.

I’m struggling to cope with horizontal beer at this time in the morning

Mike_S · August 28, 2020, 6:14am

Thanks, there is some glitch posting from iPhones.

Yes it’s called the operator.
