Shambles. The wife reckons our oven is on the blink, hopefully it will last past Xmas, otherwise it's Turkey cooked in the caravan.
It was a shambles alright. It's a shame because previously I've had fantastic cover from BG with same day service on the odd occasion. Perhaps it's a one off..
I’ve been telling my wife this is impossible for years, which is bizarre as she normally doesn’t believe a word of my excuses.
Hmm so this was left over by friends, it’s ok as a mid week beer (3.4%).
Mrs Clint gets things in her head and sooner rather than later it gets revisited.
It's all done,fridge is delivered. I'm patiently waiting for the "6hours" standing time to expire so I can switch it on! I'm drinking my kegging dregs of the Pipster Pale while waiting...just up my street...bitter and fruity!
But...to be truthful I'm glad to see the back of the integrated fridge...and not long ago,the washing machine. Just the dishwasher remaining.

Nearly there, half day tomorrow !
Getting in the Christmas groove with a proper job.

Tonight I’m drinking my 4.6% Brown Ale “Mind The Gap” - brewed to fill the gap between my bitter and my porter. It looks like Titan because Titan is based on a stronger version of this beer.
This is different, but pretty good.

Beer to watch the football and it's a trial DIPA from Maverick Brewery. This is cracking, the aroma is filling the room.

Why the name change? When I was in the UK in September I noticed amber ales. I associate amber ales with sweetness.
Below the Amber it has Bitter?

First beer off the ranks, India Pale Lager, Not one for those not keen on hop bitterness, I think the lack of ABV emphasises the hops this is going to be a satisfying summer thirst quencher.
Second drink of the evening is my kegged London Pride, even though using a floating dip tube, it is not as clear as I would like but still a very nice drop.

Amber sounds more trendy. Bitter sounds more beards and jumpers.

Or flat caps and whippets?
Yeah that too! If you look round the supermarket bitter or I should say decent bitter isn't to be found. If I was for the first time going out to buy some bitter to try and bought John Smiths,Tetley or Boddingtons, all which are a shadow of their former selves,I wouldn't be impressed! Tasteless hogwash....but they now match the majority of lagers available.
