Beer?

[CanucksTraveller]

A chap who goes for the proper Belgian beer glasses I see, albeit repurposed as the closest match on this occasion. I too like Karmelite !

Yeah I have a few Belgian glasses, somehow beer tastes better out of the right sort of glass doesn't it. I've got that Karmeliet, Bellevue x 2 (kriek and framboise), Brugs blanche de Bruges, couple more that the logo has worn off. They were all free (I go to Brussels a lot, I ask the barman and they let me take one), except the Karmeliet glass which I bought in a set with 4 bottles. Cheers!

I just found a 15% stout lurking in a case.

When LHG add flavours they really go for it.

This was better than anticipated it hints at banana which was a vague background note rather than a full-on ‘flavour’ - nice an smooth overall and hides its 7.2% abv well.

Tegernseer Hell, this is the one that I drink whenever I'm in Munich with work. A really crisp and easy drinking beer, typically Bavarian. I was pleased to find some local to me today.

A Christmas beer that the dreaded lurgi stopped me getting around to. Worth waiting for, though 😁

After a horrible ride today I went for an old faithful, which didn’t let me down.

Scottish Organic IPA this evening, it’s actually pretty good 👍

You can tell just from pouring it that it's heavy on the mangoes. London Beer Factory

New brewery to me. Glasshouse from Birmingham. Very decent

The last of the Christmas beers and a great one to go out on

Sorry, I’d finished this before I thought to post it.

Salt's North South Divide. I reckon the south's had its share.

Yorkshire Parkin Porter from Northern Monk. It's got some of that dark treacle and oats flavour but could do with a good deal more ginger. Enjoyable

Tonight's beer was a very refreshing juicy grapefruit sour at 6%abv. Pompelmocello...

Picked this up in Antwerp.

Some of the wort is acidified with lactic acid bacteria, but the idea is to bring out the hop flavour, rather than produce a sour beer.

Pretty good I reckon. Certainly difficult to find this kind of beer of this quality in Belgium.
