Beer?

A couple of choices I made this evening that might prove suboptimal tomorrow morning

A bit darker than my normal beers, but not bad and sums up December - "Bah Humbug" with no further information as it was on a handwritten pump label. Follows on from a similarly dark pint of Sharp's Sea Fury.

Last night it was a bottle of Hobgoblin Ruby ale from Waitrose on offer,Aldi my normal buying place had none at all bottles or cans nor did they have Harpers Ruby Red which is fantastic.

Really enjoying the standard Leffe at the moment. It is extremely decent for something so widely available.

Renegade brewery was a control on the Tale of Two beauties audax in November. I decided against sampling their wares mid ride, but thanks to the Christmas miracle of internet commerce…

Whilst I was in Tesco yesterday, stocking up for the journey home, these two jumped in to my trolley.

And I'm glad they did as I love a bit of Helles.

If it's this one, then the ABV shown certainly matches what was handwritten on the pump label

As for the Adnams glass, the pub has just changed hands and has been supplied by Adnams previously (they still had the pumps but not the beer unfortunately) so it looks like they were using whatever came to hand.

yes it is 4.3% at the moment, but I think it was originally Wychwoods 6.0% bottled beer, might have been 5% in cask or 4.8% something like that, but its Marstons so theyve been dropping the abv, but this is the current pump clip

but did it taste Christmassy in that way that they havent just produced a red ale, or a beer thats high abv, but that it tasted like Christmas pudding/Christmas cake/mince pies, because theres a bit of cinammon and a banana marzipan flavour to it ? because if so thats absolutely what it was.

Time & Tide Tinseltown IPA. Merry Christmas.

My nearest pub that sells cask beer is out of cask beer! What's more, it is shutting at 6pm (arrived at 5:45). Here's a swift Gipsy Hill Hepcat while I make further plans...

Northern Monk's Beyond is absolutely delicious, and now they've gone and doubled it, fantastic. 🍻
