My Oatmeal Porter. Really enjoying this. Good balance between drinkability, malt and hops. Decent complexity too (good thing given the ridiculous grain bill - it was based on a DEYA Hokum Stomp recipe).

The first bottle was a bit flat (swing top not perfectly on) so I had to open a second from the cellar to check it was a one off. Every cloud and all that.

Went to a beer festival on another Island called Herm. This is the menu, what would you have chosen?
Very nice! A better selection than you’ll see in most places. I’m drawn to the Rev James but would probably want to work my way through the lot - then make a choice on which to stay on ;)
 
I’m starting with something different tonight and it’s the last bottle I brought back with me from Norfolk. 750ml, 8.5%, Ripper. It tastes quite nice but is difficult to place - it tastes strong, there are Belgian esters, it’s oxidised (in a good way), it’s fairly bitter, and it has a kind of Centennial vibe to it.

Pictured here with today’s loaf, a very airy olive bread with 3g of carbs per slice.
