Beer?

[Daddy Pig]

I know it a still early but life's been hard work today...

Lovely richness on the nose of chocolate with a hint of licorice sweetness. Taste is a combination of coffee and vanilla, deep with a slightly bitter finish from the coffee. Damned nice...
Last night was a tickety Brew Salted caramel stout... very good and worth getting another to er provide decent commentary... and picture.

At Austell HSD, nice ruby red bitter.

Is this a 'thing'?
Chap at my zesty beverage stop yesterday ordered a pint of Belgian Blond Beer.
Barmaid asked him...
"Do you want a slice of orange in that?"
Chap was as surprised as was I.
Anyone?

Liquid Cocaine. A Hungarian double IPA. That should have been a clue.

Drainpour.

I think you are supposed to drink it using a syringe...

Talking of good head...

Normally I'd say grim things about the north but ain't one of them. Hides the 10% tag very well... far too easy to binge (at least until I'm unconscious)...

Funny how you can go half way across the world and can't move for falling over quality beer outlets. Then I go to Spain and it's almost impossible

Finally found a decent beer. Costa Blanca Altea. Brewed in the town. Very nice but so little demand for anything other than generic FYP so it's been a struggle.

Line up the beers and last one standing wins... then I realise it's just me by myself drinking in the mirror...

Your mistake is drinking two at a time.

On a more serious note: my local proper pub is having a St Andrews beer festival soon. Their poster says ''beers never been seen south of the Clyde.'' Any recommendations? Obviously, not knowing which beers they've sourced, it's an ''anything to look out for?'' question.

Adams IPA, pretty decent stuff, no hop info though. Test drove a Goose Honkers Ale but it wasn't up to it so had another Adnams.

I think the bottles trying to tell your liver something...

I've been keeping it real on the Torrside...another visit to the Beer District in Buxton on the way back from the Matlock Top 10 Sportive.
Monsters:strange aeons-10% Imperial Stout (1% for every hill).My beloved monster and me, we do everything together (it fully deserves to be a top seller).
Route 366-American Pale Ale, generously hopped with Cascade and Ekuanot...it's definitely worth getting your kicks on Route 366.
Katakana-Belgian Blonde hopped with Sorachi Ace (Ace Ace baby), fruity peppery and sweet notes.
Torrside seem to be on a roll at the moment-clearly there's more to New Mills than Swizzles Matlow.

I used to frequent that place fairly regularly for work, once inside the factory it was like stepping back to the 1960's.

Great staff shop though.

Not the first fruits edition but the plain one

I prefer the fruity one
