Not sure what has shocked me the most, liking a Berliner Weisse or liking a beer at 3.2%?

Pretty much what I was aiming for, although I guess it's infected so a bit more of a tang than expected. Nevertheless, dang!!!

If I did a synhopsis of this summer's drinking at Deptford's finest pub, Le chien et cloche, I'd have to say I've been particularly enjoying west coast American hops. Light, pale and infinitely post-ride ( or otherwise warm and thirsty) quaffable, they always leave me with a taste for more and a taste of grapefruit. Citra, Mosaic and Cascade are the varieties I remember the best. Would it be sacrilege to say that the west Pacific coast has stolen a march on traditional UK hop varieties? Or should I see whether they're equally enjoyable in the winter?

For me I think those varieties are perfect for summer thirst quenching but I tend to head for the dark beers in the winter, something a bit more warming.
Talking of darks I tried this last night, I can say that it was a wonderful beer... 12.8% and so silky smooth.

Currently sipping a dark German... ok as a thirst quencher but I'd expect better from Waitrose

Session IPA that has Pacific Jade which the bar tender assures me is the best thing to happen to beer. EVER

Also motueka. One of those two things, or both, make for a very good, refreshing, quaffable thirst quencher
