Back once again with the ill behaviour... and some smashing ales above since last I posted. Top refreshments gentlemen
Returning home from a haircut I found myself in need of a cool beverage and I happened to read that the Dog & Bell in Deptford had East London Brewery’s Cowcatcher APA on. Sadly I missed it (it’s one of my favourite cask ales), but was happy to find they had another ELB cask that I’d not had before, Bow Creek, a West Coast style IPA. Suffice to say it went down fast and well.
Later that day I found out that not only can our German chums brew some awesome beers in their own classic styles (more of that in a mo), they also turn out a mean Hazy Juice bomb too.
The Mrs has knocked up a chilli and I selected Roam Brewing Co’s version of “All Together”, the Other Half inspired worldwide IPA which is helping support hospitality professionals who have been hit hard by C19. Slightly sweet malt profile and a very smooth mouthfeel made this an enjoyable accompaniment.
Another single-hop bomber from Cloudwater followed, hoppy and piney notes with a little earthy edge.
I also had a few more that I failed to snap, but come last Saturday it was German lager day in the sun, with these three old favourites.
Assuming the flight isn’t cancelled and neither Germany nor the U.K. ban travel, I’ll be in Dusseldorf next week, supping some local brews and reporting back!
Too hot, needed to cool down.

It's Verdant. £4 is amazing for how good it is, and canned yesterday. It's a rabbit hole though, no turning back

Absolutely delicious

This, plus it’s not filling the coffers of the big brewing giants or loss-leader supermarkets.
Beavertown = Heineken
Camden = ABInBev
Fair play the others, but I’m afraid I just won’t buy big beer beers now, or anything from anyone in red on this list...

I’ll be taking great care of who I spend my beer money with in future, and I hope everyone here will consider the same.
Nothing exotic just my usual Bass Ale
Apologies for dirty glass wife's fault

Walked into town to go to the bank this afternoon, and of course it's always rude not to visit one's local and say hello . . .
F.T.F.A.
Had few sours tonight , all very nice!

Bud.
My shipment of Ghost Ship failed to arrive!
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Starting with this one
It’s a bit complex as a starter to be honest
Nice flavour though. - like tiramisu in a glass
Might try this evening...12%!

Just talked myself out of one of those as know I will consume more beer. Love the idea of leffe on tap, beautiful.
Decided instead I will just treat myself to a few pints in some local-ish pubs over a weekend. Wife doesn’t really drink, so becomes the driver home, bless her.
Had my first pint of rebellion since lock down at the weekend, was beautiful. Can’t wait for the 2 free pints at the brewery to open up again!

Catch-up from last weekend then...
A good run!
I’m dry this week because - all things being equal - im off to Düsseldorf on Thursday for the weekend. Should be plenty of German beers on this feed as a result.
FFS.
I am doing my best not to drink beer mid-week and this thread just keeps popping back up again and again!
Just off for a few mid week scoops at a Brewdog in the West End
all you can eat hot wings as well...
Thursdays are over rated anyway!

Been into Leeds today with three sons to Whitelocks for fishfinger sandwich & chips washed down with a pint of New Folklore from North Brew . Then went to Thornbridge &Co’s The Bankers Cat and had their Market Porter.

Thanks to Kirk280 for the Marble Brewery recommendation...
Thankfully, I’m off work at the mo.
