What are you drinking tonight 2022?

It’s alright, but not a patch on the one’s from the saison swap.

It’s very red looking.

It is. Sort of tastes of blueberries and quite dry like a saison, but I shan’t be buying it again.

A bonus beer from @Alastair70 a bottle of his 6.2% Chunga’s Revenge Marzen. Cheers bud!

You might be able to see the beer is crystal clear and a reddish tinged dark amber colour with a healthy light tan coloured head. The head dropped to a light foam over the surface and then stayed the course.

The aroma is malty (sorry there will be a short pause while my wife really needs to talk to me about nail bars in Sevenoaks ………………….).

I like my Victoria Secret Pilzener, happily do that again.

Having a steadier before heading out for the evening. A locally brewed pilsner given to me be @samale yesterday. An ideal start to what is going to be a long and entertaining night.

Although, I’m thinking a vodka martini would have been more appropriate.

Just right for this time of a Summer's evening.

Still fresh and very enjoyable at the moment, I'll be Damned!
The good lady has just said she'll have one as well, seeing as I described it so effusively.

Looking very dapper sir

I must have had a slightly more athletic physique that last time the tux was out, either that or it’s shrunk a bit in the wardrobe.

SWMBO'd likes her's poured clear.
Mine is to obey.
The rest goes to top up mine,
result!

….OK. If you need a nail bar apparently you couldn’t do much better than Sevenoaks is the gist.

So, the aroma. Very malty, deep rich malt that I’m struggling to find a good comparison for - there is a sweetness to it like malt extract maybe?

The flavour is also very malty, it gives an impression of sweetness but isn’t in itself sweet. In fact the beer is fairly dry. The bitterness is quite mild and I expect it’s the relatively low bitterness that’s giving the impression of sweet malt. I’m not getting a lot of hop flavour but this is typical for the style and despite being over 6% there’s no clue this is a fairly strong beer from the aroma or flavour.

This is a nice clean well-brewed malty beer that I enjoyed more than I thought I might. Cheers Alastair

Good for you, you OK?

 

[DavidDetroit]

Founders Better Half. Two "Halfs" make a whole. So you always have to drink at least two or in multiples of two or you'll start walking wibbly wobbly.

Yes H I am meds sorted now, but still need to ease up a bit and thanks for asking

It's possible I could now be drinking wine from a container similar to the one in the painting, maybe even with an apple. Not likely, but possible.
It's probably just Moose wanting to be famous though.

Was having a G&T in my Adnams gin glass and it’s cracked.. guttered.

On the plus side a trip to Southwold is now needed.
