Just a few cheeky Asahis tonight 👌
Last one before lights out.
Last night was Pale Armadillo from the local Tempest Brewery. Lovely!
May the craftbeer gods strike me down for this…
…for while I have sinned, this was actually rather good.
Haven't had the King round for a while . . .

This stuff is about as delicious as a stout can be, in my limited experience, but, I wouldn't want another this evening.

Ah, I just took a look at the label, from Hebden Bridge, it seems. In all my tripe to that Yorkshire, I have never been there. Early September should rectify this failure.

Starting well…
Not bad, not great.
As above. This needs to punch harder on ABV to really grasp the balls of West Coast IPA-ness.
Another favourite not sampled for a while . . .

Old peculier is excellent from a can.

This was excellent.
One of our local pubs has been given a revamp and apparently it’s owners are connected to Loose Cannon Brewery. Which is a good thing as it’s a change from the endless Brakspear pubs hereabouts and they also keep a guest tap. Loddon are local too and this was very pleasant.
Things got a bit fruity after that!
Lingonberry, Blackberry and Cranberry. Tart, sweet and sour. Very refreshing and surprisingly drinkable at that ABV.
Currently on holiday in Dorset/Devon and picked these up from the local Co-Op.
'Legend' was delicious - hoppy, nutty, slightly caramel.
'Crispy Pig' wasn't really what I wanted. I should have checked the label because it had essence of apple. I could imagine with a pork roast it might work, but if I want apples I'll drink cider or apple juice.
Six more to try over the next few days.
Shooting club tonight, in the local pub, so Pedigree it was. I scored well too, limited myself to 3 pints.
These are more like it …
Granville’s for a quick one , Wilde Child Ornate Precision - classic British golden ale

Last weekend saw a flying visit back to the old County, ostensibly to see family but, in reality, to pick up some beers from two of my favourite breweries. And this is one of them. Mmmmmmmm.
One for the appreciators of the dark.
This stuff is magic. I had it with sausage, mash and peas with onion gravy. Perfect match.
And on Thursday I enjoyed a number of refreshments from this menu at Farringdon Tap:
Köstrizer Black Lager was awesome:
As was the Rothaus Weizen:
Loose Rivet. NEIPA
And a couple more from the limited list

A nice pint of the greatly named small man’s wetsuit.
Followed by a deya/ arbour collab
Back home and trying a more local brew, which is delicious…
Dropped into my local brewery tap on the last leg of yesterdays ride. A quick half of Citra Quad sesssion IPA.
And a little later on, my 2,500th unique beer since I joined Untappd in 2014…
Clean and crisp

Brew dog AF. Rarely touch the live ones these days.

Great beer that is smooth and super light, for such high alcohol 5.9%---best part of the deal, brewed by my son!
Fahr Brewery
In Cornwall on my hols. Cask Proper Job, fresh as a daisy. Happy days!
Thornbridge seem to always knock-out solid West Cosst pale ales. This was no exception.
And my love-affair with Burning Sky’s wares continues apace…
Yet another excellent product from Hadrian Border Brewery, just along the Tyne from Newcastle . . .

Thornbridge & Brew York have made an excellent example of West Coast IPA in this one. Piney, crisp, herbal bitterness, the citrus marmalade tang of orange peel and a big, bold mouthfeel. Packs a punch.
