Had a glass of wine in a very fancy house with a fancy carpet. Me, not having had an ounce of alcohol yet, dropped a full glass of red wine on that nice carpet.
If I had been drunk, I would have at least had some excuse. Mortifying experience,.
What are you drinking tonight 2022?

It’s a brand. It’s an American ipa by vocation brewery in England. Very nice beer it is

Oh dear. I hope you opened a bottle of white wine to help clean the stain.
I once spilled a mini bottle of red wine on a passenger on the plane beside me. I feel your pain
Another pint of my old ale.
Better photo this time.
The only malts in this are pale (Plumage Archer) and Munich. No crystal or other malts. Look at that colour!

Funny. Another reason beer is better: sticky but less obvious staining.
The thing is I don't drink or appreciate good wine but it was a stupid toast or something.
I would have preferred the plane scenario in front of strangers, maybe.

IKEA is big here but this was not IKEA. This was direct from, er checks label, Belarus.
Could explain the difficulties!
We've had to tangle with a few items from IKEA and the time allotted was not how it turned out. I still love the place.IKEA is big here but this was not IKEA. This was direct from, er checks label, Belarus.
I have to say, IKEA does it really nice. The store isn't that close to us but doable, drive-wise. We have so much fun walking around and a lot of the products are very cleverly engineered. There price range goes from low to high-ish and that's a nice option.

The plane was terrible.
I was waiting on the food to come around back in the days when you got food with your flight. When I seen the flight attendant coming with the hot food I opened a bottle of red wine and poured it into a glass. I then settled in to wait on the food and procedded to fall asleep. I twitched in my sleep and my hands hit the table that hard the wine flew across the isle and landed on the white shirt of the man in the seat across. He did see the funny side thankfully but his shirt was ruined. Embarrassing
I started laughing halfway through that story. It doesn't get much funnier. Phew!
This is me tonight. Pretty usual, something out of Missouri. They make a fine, fine beer. Trying to take the worst photo imaginable. Getting close but not quite there yet.
Well my friends, I've been very naughty and not brewed since before Christmas.
Fortunately I still have beer in my Corny's (hurrah).
This is a glass of my MO + WGV smash in the February sunshine...
Perhaps just a touch too floral, but pretty decent stuff, if I say so myself :-)

Beautiful colour. Looks delicious. Never tried WGV, what are they like?
I’ve been trying to work out what it means 
Brewing today so early beer. Thought we’d try this as never had it before. I think it’s tasteless compared to Alastair’s one 
Hi Tess i think whitbread gold verietyI’ve been trying to work out what it means
Ahhh! Thanks Rod!
Much better!
Thankyou! I find flavours hard to describe, but the WGV are like a very faint elderflower or lychee flavour - light and springlike?
