What are you drinking tonight 2021?

[An Ankoù]

Having a good sort out. As I've got a decent stash of beers, the ones I don't like very much tend to get sidelined in the forlorn hope that they'll improve with age. Or there might be an odd bottle of something that should have been drunk long ago. So these are all being brought to the forefront and they're going to be drunk or ditched. Among which, Greg Hughes Oaked Brown Ale and the Christmas Chocolate Porter. I think I did a cracking job on both of these and they're just as they should be; trouble is I don't like the styles. Luckily, both will keep until I have a beer festival. Among others are my trial with Bodacea hops, which hasn't cleared after 6 months and a stout I made with Voss kveik, an 2 year old PET of Coopers Pale Ale and a couple of GH Pale Ale vintage- both of which are probably past their best.
Out with the old and in with the new, I say.

Looks good, a few too many bananas for my taste though

Those bananas are for display purposes only, Sir.

Well the stouts out, I'm getting on it!

I figured I may as well pair my music choice with my beer. Heavy Metal and a Cast Iron Billy.

Time for some homebrew, a Belgian pale ale

Plenty of dubbel and tripel word scores.

“TOXIC”

You’re welcome.

Nowhere to put it.

I managed revolting for a triple word score.

On my chocolate stout now. ZERO head which puts me off, but it tastes quite good.

I’m not going to be a spectator any more. Inspired by @Mrhandsome I’m starting with a stout, in this case my 6% sweet stout.

Yep a nice sessionable 4% ideal lunchtime at work material in the days when we had a thing called pubs.

Currently on tap is Admirals Reserve which is going down rapidly.
Later I might have a cheeky bottle from Sainsburys of Cranborne Poacher

Found three bottles of my Vienna IPA hiding in the shed. Excellent news!

The wife has just gone to see her sister for a couple of hours. More boozing time for me!

Well, well well... in return for some advice, a surprise bottle of this stuff just arrived from a very good mate!

"Rockstar Pineapple Grenade" overproof rum (....65%) OMG it tastes amazing - but it is veeeery strong
