Thanks (and to DP) for the suggestions - hopefully 12 Days will turn up at some point, that sounds just right for Mrs M.
Beer?

Das Weizen (Schwaben Brau, 5.5% abv)
An Aldi special this, picked up by Mrs M, I suspect at a very reasonable price. Pretty lively (see those heads) to the extent that the flip cap popped in a way that made me believe, briefly, that it had left the bottle entirely. It's cloudy, and what you'd expect from a wheat beer, light, slightly orangey and refreshing, with little sense of that fairly high abv. I have to say that I prefer something earthier and more full, but this would do ok as something easy drinking on a hot day. Nicely average, perhaps, is the best verdict.

Cotswold IPA in middle-class Jericho, Oxford - Willamette, Amarillo and Hersbrucker hops, awfully yumtus.

Are those prices per pint?Tempest OktoberFest today, which I forgot about despite posting about it on here...
Top class if they are.
Edit: I've just noticed the figures in brackets, what a knob.

I'd be gravitating to that Imperial Stout and then probably gravitating to the floor in a heap sometime later.Tempest OktoberFest today, which I forgot about despite posting about it on here...

For a minute there I thought I was back on dial up broadband.

Inferno (Oakham, 4.4%)
No Mrs M tonight, so a repeat of a beer we've had before so that she doesn't miss out. It's very nice.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Here's what a real Indian Kingfisher looks like. Much less bland. Even without the 8 bread rolls.

I'm getting a sense that Mrs Marmion and younger Marmionette are upping the pressure to get hamsters...
