Somebody wants their fair share of beer.

I read recently that Duvel bought them, I was quite impressed with their saison and now I know why!

This has been in my 12° C kegerator for hours, and I would say it's over carbed. Tastes ok, but nothing special. Wouldn't buy again.

12 C is my summer

12 C is my summer

It's my summer, winter, autumn and spring. It's perfect ale temp

Lagers, etc are different.

In fairness I was in Liverpool recently In the ship and mitre drinking cask. My son's both said they couldn't drink beer that warm.

Well I bought this on advice based on the what country makes the best beer thread. Wow I have to say I am very impressed with it. I thought it was 6.5% and was stunned by how rich it was. Apparently I misread and it is 9.5%. Highly recommend this one, I may even prefer the neutralness of the yeast and the restrained roastiness compared to other rich stouts and porters.

I've been looking for this for ages, where did you get it?

That first looks evil

Oh, you’ve no idea. He’s still my favourite but.

I love them already. We have OOD names (OOD for Out Of Doors cats--feral cats, basically) like Butterball, Thumbprint, William Wallace, Starbuck, Gul De Cat, Xerox.
Then indoor names which, now I'm comparing, aren't all that different: Crunch, Dashel, Hogarth, Moose.

These pair are definitely OOD cats, but as long as I keep feeding they’ve promised not to try to kill me.

Managed to finish my Witbier to clear a slot in the kegerator for the pale hopped with Nelson & Citra.. new combo for me

Another round of 1698 with the Mrs down the pub listening to a band.
They are actually quite good.
My constructive criticism is that they either need to make the transition between songs smoother, or fill it with a bit of banter.

Is that Shep's 1698? On cask? Please tell me it is... I love the stuff in bottles and dream of a sesh on it on cask in a boozer.

 

[jof]

Only in bottles, even in the pub

Didn't know that but cool. AND Moortgat can now be used for a cat name when the need arises: "Moortcat"
The beer pictured is pretty subtle in flavor considering its knockout punch, and it's become a regular for me.

Callow youth.
Like good wine (and beer) they will mature and improve with age.
Well, we can only hope!

A place called Tipsy's a bit west of Denver. Not too close to you I would imagine. I never did see these over in the UK, although I wasn't particularly looking very hard for it either.

Been collecting my daughter from work and poured a pint then the wife rang and asked me to collect her from a works do. So finally getting a pint of 60min ipa. This gets better and better.

 

[marshbrewer]

Not too sure about this one either. It's ok. Not having much luck tonight!

Sorry folks, mealtime got in the way.
What a coincidence, having just arrived home from a Croatia trip, these just-out-of-date bottles from the fridge were all Croatian brews, and required consuming.
#1 Medvedgrad Summer in Zagreb similar to the bottle of theirs I had when there. So Weissbier like.
#2 only a 4.4% session Varionica IPA but full of flavour and aroma, the orange (+tropical) aromas were very enjoyable.
#3 and last, is an amber Varionica IPA that was redolant of Seville orange marmalade.
Perhaps it demonstrated its out of date character more than the others.
Still very drinkable, so it was.

Doing my bit for the jubilee with a London porter. Says it’s a historical recipie with sweet malt and a smoked finish. It looks like a brown ale and tastes like ........ smoked bacon. Not a fan of smoked beers. Should have read the label
God damm you Lizzie.

Last one for the night, a homebrew.

SAISON!!!!!
