I'm not going to tell you that if you bought a case of it at Makro last week you got two free Duvel Tripel Hop glasses . Because it would make you jealous and sad and I wouldn';t want to do that, would I? :whistle:
:cry:

So, I have been a good lad today. Went early to the Lidl sale to bag a few bargains and followed that with trolly duty at Tesco with the OH. Only bargain there was Smirnoff vodka at £15 litre, so I got 2, just in case.

Off to the pub now for some lunch and..... BEER! ^_^

Hi all - been away a bit but can do some reporting back!

Right now I'm drinking this:

and it's splendid, the smoke (from chipotles) is subtle but definitely there - really rather good.

In Normandy I didn't drink much beer at all, it was all about local cider with rough labels and rougher after effects.... (worth it though)

My local deli has got more beers in - everything from red willow above (a couple lined up from tomorrow), a bunch of left bank (I think that's what they're called, they make lambeth walk stout) and some Huddersfield brewery beers which seem great, but they rarely make a beer a second time.


What I'm really looking forward to though is the de Molen festival at the end of the month - DP - you still planning on being around?

Lovely stuff
I drank a pint of Meantime 'London Pale Ale' last Monday - not bad, and I didn't know it is from Greenwich!
Saw the bottled stuff in Sainsburys the following evening too.

Yeah, it's good stuff. There's quite a nice Meantime Brewery bar in Greenwich, just near the Cutty Sark. Always worth a visit at the weekend during a cycle up the riverside path...

I've just discovered a local micro brewery sells 5l mini kegs & they are bloody lovely

I'm expecting delivery of another one today 'Wandering Weatear' Only trouble is they need to be drunk within 4 days once opened ^_^

Cool - so how does it work - do you need a hand-pump arrangement to get it out?
If it's like others I've used, you turn the red knob at the top to do something with the pressure, then the one at the bottom pulls out and there's a thing to turn to get the beer out (and, if you're me, get it slightly wrong and fire beer all over the kitchen floor....)
