Tried my best but this is all I could muster yesterday, nothing like their picture perfect pint.
Thinking about it I think their glass is full of "normal" Guinness..
Beer?

Ooohhh, somebody's getting all arty today
...The Corby Blonde was in fine fettle at the Britannia in Elterwater on Sunday night , and the Hawkshead Drystone Stout at the Crafty Baa in Windermere (a fine establishment with some quality beers and some lovely Tom Waits loving ladies working behind the ba
r)...went very nicely with a cheese/charcuterie board. Hawkshead have also just done a collab brew with Siren which is most excellent. It's a spelt IPA called Thresher and wears it's 8% very well indeed. Flavourwise it has a nice subtle nuttiness from the spelt (I'm a big fan of spelt for baking), currently on tap at Tweedies in Grasmere. While I was cycling past Cumbrian Legendary Ales yesterday afternoon, I got a lovely blast of roasting malt wafting across the road-pukka! Tweedies also have their Vanilla Oatmeal Stout on tap at the mo.This is a cracking brew, a bit sweeter than the Drystone, but they haven't gone too over the top with the vanilla. I've been waiting to try this one for a while and I wasn't disappointed. Finally I tried the Rooster's Buckeye-a session IPA which packs a lot of flavour into its 3.5% ABV. Churs!

A pint of Owd Rodger. On holiday, I necked two of these rather too quickly on an empty stomach and upon getting up to leave the beer garden trod in the bowl of dog water. An embarrassing situation made worse by the uncannily perfect fit of the bowl on my foot. I was hopping around for a little while trying to rid myself of the damn thing.
I must have looked like metal Micky getting his shoes off.

Thankfully not. My wife favours simple phones that nearly run to a camera.
My daughter still has a weird sort of pendant made from welded up bicycle chain. I have no recollection of buying it but apparently I did that very afternoon.
There is a series of photos of a very small girl looking like a cheap Mr T.

Welcome to my life
Belated news on the Hardknott Rhetoric. No. Just no. It's the sweetest thing I've ever tasted, and last week I tasted a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup cheesecake. In fairness to its claims to monstrousness, there's not much it hasn't got in it, except hops. And, funnily enough, Szechaun peppercorns - but we'll let that go. JtM would run out of adjectives. If I had another bottle I'd chuck it in a Christmas cake. That's the last time I play a poncey wildcard.

Stallhagen IPA, Finnish beer in Finland. Not bad for foreign. Only €11.50 too, how's that then mossy?
