Het Waterhuis in Gent is a favourite boozer of mine.

Actually, put a splash of lime in it and it's a decent drink on a hot day.
There, I said it

At last I made it to Partizan Brewing's taproom. Last time I tried to go there I cycled right past it and found a different brewery. Their lemon and thyme saison was, well, lemony, thymey and very saisony (by which I mean it had that kind of murky wooden bit in the middle and end of the palate.)
Their Apricot DIPA was strong (high 8%s), lush and generously apricoty. It could have been a bit heavy for late afternoon but the fruitiness gave that all important feeling that it might count as one of my 5 a day. It looked very much the colour of @rich p's Gaston. Classed in the lush category.
Followed by a Cyclic Beer Farm Saison. Less woody but it definitely had a chilli and pepper tang to it. I gather that the beer comes from Barcelona, brewed by an ex-colleague of Partizan's. I decided not to have a fourth 2/3rds so I might go back tomorrow and have a glass of their Raspberry and Lemon saison, which had just come on. I had a little sample and it seemed worth a proper go, nice and tart....

That reminds me of the little milk bottles full of orange juice that we used to get in school.

Paul's Boutique burgers, either near station or in the University area near some decent bars including Rock Circus, is worth a visit - excellent burgers.
Yep, I got fed up tending to it. Slight regrets, but life moves swiftly on.
