Beer as cycling fuel?

[Dogtrousers]

All an advert for beer fuelling I suppose ,never seen a fine ale bottle in a hedge.

I've seen plenty of beer cans and bottles. Picked up a fair few when out on walks.

Yebbut fine beer? Have the idea it would usually be rather pissy lager or cider
Congrats again for your collecting , I loathe littering

looks less steep in this photo, otherwise i would defo had two pints in one order! first phot looks like a 30% gradient from the arch. What's the pub btw, is it worth me cycling out from Hemel, I do quite like a Landlord?

It's the Half Moon in Hitchin. Very cycling friendly pub! Lots of parking, plenty of outdoor seating, and real ale.

Got into the habit in the summer of evening rides with the riding buddies with a pint a mile or so from home, Very refreshing.

I had a pint of Old Speckled Hen a couple of miles from the finish of the London Marathon one year. Lovely and refreshing, I finished quite well despite being passed by someone dressed as an apple as I approached the finish 🍎

I know it's a year since this post, but the Half Moon is a very fine pub that I have frequented many times, with and without the bike.

I enjoy a bit of whiskey whenever I drink beer. How does that enter into the equation?

May have to make a visit when we play Blueharts away.

On paper they certainly go hand in hand for a nice leisurely summer afternoon.. however, on top of the fact that beer doesn't agree with my anyway, I find typically I feel great once back on the bike for a bit, until the blood sugar crash kicks in and the alcohol wears off. It will also absolutely cause you to pish your way through your water supply too.

Nice to have a few when out, but I think selling it as a fuel is somewhat optimistic

Found this beer in Maine , US. This past summer and found it near my home! it's a peanut butter ,dark chocolate, and coffee milk stout. Very thick and a great dessert beer.

On a decent length run I enjoy a pint , usually Guinness, but I prefer it near the end .
Maybe an hour from home.
