Beer?

[threebikesmcginty]

Did you get to try the Tø Ol x Cloudwater Christmas Cake Stout?

Sore point....sold out. They had Tø Ol Snowball Saison which I had that instead which was good, but a bit of a letdown after the Stout no-show

I haven't cracked open the growler yet so I've still only got 4 litres of it.

Dark Star Oak Barrel Aged Stout, it’s oaky without being smacked around the back of the skull with a plank. Despite its 10.% it tastes easy on the alcohol, it’s very nice, better than the quality of the photo (which doesn’t actually say a lot).

This is a must have, very nice.....

Drink fresh!

Get it supped

Cloudwater Tropical Stout and Dry and Bitter/Bundobust collaboration sour.

The stout is very rich and boozy. The sour will be perfect with my vada pav and sprout bhajis

 

[MossCommuter]

Seriously?

Delicious

Red DIPA

Red. Not pale. Red.

It's nice but it's not IPA

Blackjack - Ace of Spades

A nine percenter from a cask.

Bitter, strong, very bitter. Somewhat soapy

Not convinced

Cloudwater Brown

Word on the web says brown is the new DIPA, the he taste of 2018, and never ones to miss (or invent) a trend Cloudwater are ahead of the curve.

It's not brown

Meh with a capital muh

Does that mean that drinking Newcastle Brown will be back in fashion for 2018 ?

Something like that

The beer menu teased with the promise of Crimson Queen (a favourite) but it sold out n before Christmas. No Lervig stout either so I'm finishing on a classic.

So much for shopping this afternoon. I managed to buy brake pads and drink beer. The new duvet and pillows can wait another day

 

[MossCommuter]

Priorities.

Innit

The evening finished* with a pint of Dark Matter, a very very very brown ale. But by then the battery had gone on my phone.

*The look on the waitress face when tlh ordered a straight Jamesons was a picture.

Dark Matter...a Knotty problem to solve (cool for Schrodinger's cats).

You're right about the peanut butter, but the Torpedo's a good one.

Well worth sinking a few Torpedos!

Drinking one of these as well, not bad...it's my solace while I wait for my sodding turkey to cook

Symps-keep calm and drink on!

[QUOTE 5092067, member: 9609"]feeling decidedly unwell now - one seriously stotting headache, would like to get out on the bike and clear it, but it looks like there is a bout 3 inches of snow, unless that's the hangover.[/QUOTE]

Lots of snow on t'Pennines here, and rather more ice on the roads than I'd like, which makes my daily commute rather interesting...

I've been Portered and Stouted out. Could take me a bit of time to clear this lot

Chapeau! to you Sir. I've just finished my last can of Fell Robust Porter (an excellent example of the style) and a Stubble as well-NZ pale made with Waimea and Rakau hops, also well worth a punt if you like the more floral pale ales (I had it on tap in the Fell Bar recently). I still have a large stash of fine ales in case I can't get out because of snow/zombie hordes etc, including a bottle of Hawkshead/Wylam Pleasures In the Dark Imperial Stout. The night is dark, and full of pleasures...

Z is for Zachariah

A is for apricot

Evil Twin beer

With added apricots and salt

It's no salty kiss but that's clearly where they were aiming.

A long time hehehehe...

Does that mean that drinking Newcastle Brown will be back in fashion for 2018 ?

The next hot sipster trend...ye canna wack it like man! Hoppy New Year if I don't pop in again before then (working...).
