A couple of quarts earlier, a brace of each . . .

When it's hot and sunny something a lot colder than the temperature that ale/stout/porter should be quaffed at is needed . . .

This has been excellent this week in the Vic . . .

However, confined to barracks tonight so starting with this...

That's a very "healthy" %age z. A few of those and it'll be zzzzzz ! ;-) I'd best look out for that when I'm in there next. :pig:

That's "Tropical" not "Fropical", it's to remind me which daughter bought it for me. Very refreshing after several hours in toiling in the garden to escape today's pantomime . . .

...

Thanks Alan. 7.5% and quaffable sounds dangerous . . . I'd best get some! ;-)

What's your opinion of it Alan? It's in my local branch and I may give it a try.

Had a very pleasant early doors session yesterday . . .

Main course
...

A quick train ride back to the Palatinate to visit the Vic . . .

Walked over town to get nearer the station only to find that the Bridge was shut for an apparent cellar refurb! Not to worry, nipped down Castle Stairs to Sandhill and along to the Crown Posada . . ....

Up the Toon to pick up an order from the North East Art Collective, pop in if you're up here there's some excellent work to view and buy. The Mean Eyed Cat is just around the corner, incredibly rude...

A new one (to me), an Easter gift . . .

Very nice too.

Great choice Alan. I drank cases of the stuff during lockdown, they had a good discount and free postage.

It's superb. I just had to have a 2ᶮᵈ, and as it's started raining I'm having a 3ʳᵈ before the train back to the Palatinate! :pig:

Had to pop up the Toon for summat, chores done so it's into the Mean Eyed Cat to get the weekend underway . . .

The well cooled Saltaire went down nicely after a couple of hours in the sun getting the lawn into shape, just in time to watch the Toon dispose of Brentford, now then what next from this selection? ...
