Beer?

[srw]

A couple of Mr Sainsbury's (what does the J stand for, anyway?) "Taste the difference" bottles last night. A delightful 5.9% British-style Marston Union IPA brewed by Marstons - a proper bitter without any of your fancy yankee hops, and a London Porter brewed by Shepherd Neame. A bit unbalanced - too bitter in both hops and burnt malt without enough underlying sweetness. I'll stick to London Porter brewed in London, I think.

I didn't even look at the caps.

Cumberland Brewery Corby Blonde in the Britannia , Elterwater t'other night. A very nice easy blonde!

I proposed to Mrs. Jg in the back bar at the Brit. It was bloody freezing - I had a dew drop hanging from my neb. Seem to remember I was on a pint of Coniston Bluebird with the future Mrs. Jg on a half of the same. Happy days.

It was disgraceful - so I have heard. Heaven forbid that you get to meet any of these beer 'experts' in real life - apparently.

Porthole mirror boss. The Danes think very strange things about authentic décor in London pubs. It reminds me mostly of various pubs/bars in Dublin but the last thing cph needs is another Irish pub.

But it is too far to visit it regularly. My after work watering holes, Mon-Thu make me a very happy - hic! - man.

Mind you, grandeur-wise this one took some beating. Pound coin for scale. I did ask for a large one!

On the town with teef and rich. Started at The Harp, called in at Byrons then headed up to The Old Coffee House. We drank a lot of beer and talked a load of old shite, great stuff!

I don't remember that! The two helpings each of Lagunitas were good, but not a patch on the draught Kernel 5.2% - our session beer (citra - for afficionados. 'Afficionados' are not Mexican food btw) The front 'window' at the Harp is non-existent on fine days, so we were able to inhale cigars, cigarettes, perfume diesel and conviviality from the comfort of our barstools. It would take a fair while (and a few quid) to rinse one of each beer in that pub. 'Very nice'.
