What are you drinking tonight 2021?

Neck oil on tap is usually a great tasting session beer.

Hotel bar has Neck Oil. Slipping down nicely but the missus says it tastes of Brussel sprouts! Well it is nearly Christmas.

Hmmm, Looks like the dog's bathwater and tastes like sprouts eh? Should make for some fragrant and tuneful duvet-lifting behaviour later.

Tonight's offering, a barrel aged imperial stout from Clan Brewing.

It's roasty stout meets sherry and raisin from the cask conditioning. Quite a burnt acrid finish, which is nice. A little bit thin for my liking though.

caramel and date, the bottle says toffee and raisin.

I don't know if I could tell the difference between toffee and caramel even if given a piece of each and no blindfold.

green bottles are all skunked

Heineken is that way here every time I've had one except once. I drank them anyway.

We do as well as we don't like to waste money. It's a shame though.

It's a shame though.

They've got to know by now, I would imagine, that it's a concern. It's no secret with the people I know it has a better chance of being skunky.
It has made me diligent to keep my green 500ml flip tops in the dark 100% of the time until they get poured.

Irish Red and a lamb dhansak. Big bold aromas hint at the delicious flavours that become evident from the very first taste. A regional classic that never fails to delight.


The curry ain’t half bad either.

Day 9 of the beer 52 advent calendar (days 1-8 will have to wait to fri night )
Amundsen super Santa Choco shake stout. Nice coffee and chocolate aromas but a little fizzy for a stout and a bit too thin on the mouthfeel. No head after the first mouthful. Not the greatest offering I’ve ever had.

 

[Little Rock Brewing]

Pint of London Pride, hand pump. Smooth but not punching to be honest.

 

[Alastair70]

Trying a proper pint of Irish Red for comparison purposes. I didn’t set out to brew a clone, and didn’t look at the Smithwicks recipe when I designed mine, but must do now. They are actually very similar. If I’d went with EKG as originally planned I reckon they’d be hard to tell apart.

 

[Little Rock Brewing]

Just had a pint of this too. Pretty flavoursome and festive.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

Can’t remember if I’ve posted this because we had this earlier when I was really busy but here is todays Brewdog advent calendar offering. It was really good!

Lovely stout from the white Hag

That pump is enough to get anyone to try the beer! Just looked it up - not a fan of the style but I'd still try it lol

A first for me. A white stout.
the ghost of Neapolitan white stout from suagatuck brewing. Tastes of chocolate vanilla and a hint of strawberry. Strange tipple this one. Nice but the jury is out. Why not just make a stout ?

I had an alphabet white breakfast stout and it's the only thing I've ever had that I couldn't drink. Was foul lol. Haven't tried this one though.

There is a slightly off putting taste to it that I can’t place. It looks like iron brew and neither tastes nor smells like a stout so not sure how exactly it is a white stout I will finish it though. Rude to pour it out.

 

[Tess Tickle's Brewery]

I know what you mean. Made me gip.
