What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[samale]

It’s a bit of a bummer. I have actually remembered to bring up my camera and tripod for once. As the sun sets over Greencastle we get treated to the most amazing colours, glowing red skys and deep azure seas. I was planning on joining the local youths in the sand dunes with a big carryout and taking some photos.

I am just back from shroove beach. I could see magilligan point. The rest was covered

Were you out with the camera a few years ago when everyone seen the UFO’s over magilligan/greencastle ? Was the strangest thing I have ever seen.

You must of a serious amount of home brew that night

Batemans XXXB and Timmy Taylor Landlord tonight. Back to work tomorrow. Boooooooo!

49'er - delicious (but then I like crystal malt)
After a duck with a malbec.
East End Arms, New Forest.
A HOLIDAY!

This is the view now, don’t think it’ll get much better but I at least I can see the sea again. Time to go back inside anyway, glass is empty.

The advection fog that has covered Castlerock for the last few evenings has finally cleared. I can almost see the Donegal headland across the mouth of the Foyle estuary. Enjoying a glass of Cote d’ Rhone while it’s still warm enough to sit outside.

That’s not the easiest read you have there for a relaxing break!

Whitewater Hallion Irish Red Ale, really good.

Another style added to the to-brew list

It does get a bit head melty, I’m taking it in small chunks in between doing crosswords with my 13yr old. She solved her first 15x15 last week with a bit of prompting and now she’s decided it’s time to move up from the Quick Cryptic and play in the big leagues. I haven't told her yet how much I struggle with them!

I’ve one of these underway, will be ready to package at the weekend. Recipe needs a tweak or two, Looking for volunteers for a bottle swap and feedback.

Perhaps she can read the book and précis it for you!

I'd happily have a bottle.
I've got a citra/mosaic IPA bottled (it does the job but I've decided it's nothing special) and a citra weissbier currently carbonating.

The Citra Weissbier just got a bite! I’ll send you my address, happy to send one to anyone else who likes malty beers too.

This is one of my favourite shop-bought beers.

Chateau Lafite Rothschild ‘89 … or back in the real world, Puligny-Montrachet ‘18 premier cru - but to be fair, it is a very fine wine indeed

Can't find this thread, but one of the most impressive wines I have ever tasted was a Puligny Montrachet. Strangely in Fuller's cellars, Chiswick.
Of all the wines tasted that day, no one spat that out!

 

[Clint]

A lot.

 

[Hazelwood Brewery]

Pub lunch with a draft Whitstable Bay - cold not chilled, carbonated not gassy.

Perfect!

 

[Alastair70]

Pre golf pints, The Smithwicks is mine.

 

[Rodcx500z]

That looks grand Alastair enjoy

Looks much better than the bottled version!

I also had a pint of this to wash down the lasagne.
