    Weekend away in a very wet Windermere. In The Crafty Baa with the biggest selection of beers, ciders and lagers I've seen.

    Trying out their own branded Milk Stout.

    Plenty of choice there, I wouldn't know where to start. Perhaps in numerical order or even odd numbers only. Trouble is these days I wouldn't get very far through them.

    Enjoy your evening.

    If anyone's up for a challenge... I've started you off with three in Bowness.

    A dry, fruity start to the evening, courtesy of Hertfordshire’s Mad Squirrel Brewery.

    Bravehop by the Loch Lomond Brewery. Got it in Lidl. Perfectly acceptable!

    A new one that I picked up whilst in Rome back in December. Hatori Hanzo from Birrifico Mulkeller, a west coast style IPA. Strong, hoppy, sweet but not too bitter.

    And finally today, a very unusual one sent to me by a friend from the US. An IPA brewed with Pecans and Maple Syrup from Decadent Ales in Mamaroneck, New York.

    Eyes and tastebuds are confused. The former says it’s an IPA / Pale Ale, the latter say it’s a semi-sour, sweet, cold-pressed stouty thing. Either way, it’s good. Like nothing you’d expect from an IPA, but somehow it works.

    Was on nights last night, technically it's still morning for me right now. Will be having an ale or two later, 'photos to follow.

    Only got Bud tonight. Could murder an IPA. Any IPA..................!
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    Quite possibly my favourite of all the ales, stouts and so on that I tried last year, PBC's Dream Like Sequence is dank, pithy heaven. It has such a long finish that there's no need to rush it and every mouthful builds upon the one previous - I love it.

    Reminds me of Phipps Brewery in Northampton. Went on a tour there for a friends stag do, made a pleasant change from the usual kind of do's. Well worth a look if a group of you fancy a day out. Nice beer as well!

    Heck I fancy a beer. But it's a school night. Roll on Friday 6pm!

    Crappy 'photo, lovely beer.

    Verdant's Headband pale ale for me tonight, lighter in alcohol and strength of flavour than I'm used to as DIPAs and DDHs tend to be my more favoured non-draught tipples however this is slipping down very well. It would make a great session beer which is a bugger as I'm not working tomorrow and I only have the one can.

    Headband


    @ S Works - not too sure if I'm more jealous about the local beers or the pizza!

    I can only applaud the Verdant appreciation, glad there is another disciple here.

    In terms of the local beers vs local pizza conundrum, I have to say that one without the other would’ve constituted a gross dereliction of duty to this thread, so you’re excused for appreciating both.

    The Lancaster Black is delicious. Bought it last weekend when we were across in Windermere.

    So far tonight, a Manchester double-whammy. Cross Collar West Coast Pale from Marble, which tastes exactly as it says on the tin...





    And No.3 in Track Brewing’s birthday editions, a super smooth and fruity IPA.

    I was at the Ale House last night for a few, they've got Putty on tap so it would have been rude not to

    Putty

    Nice. How was it drinking? I’ve had two of the 8 cans I bought and it’s improving with a big of age. One I drank the week after canning was a bit vegetal. Last nights - one month post canning - was a fair bit smoother.

    Cor blimey. Does it hide the 12% well or is the booze prominent? I’m sitting on a coupe of high ABV stouts and am wondering when best to crack them open.

    It has always drank well fortunately, with no peculiarities or oddities. I had read somewhere, possibly on Untappd, that older cans are better than fresher ones, I've only ever drank draught so I personally couldn't comment.

    Certainly get the nut flavours and very thick creamy mouthfeel and can definitely tell it’s got plenty of alcohol there. You don’t need more than one of these at a time!
