Maybe it's a bit out of fashion or maybe I am wrong but Directors on draught seems rarer these days but no problem getting it in a bottle which though not as good is still very acceptable.

It's the pre-kend so I've had a few lost lagers, a few Aldi ales, went to weatherspoons and had a shipyard with a madras and a guest Amarillo golden ale, then more lost lager. Might finish with a Hazy Jane
 
Walking home after a good few cocktails and a couple of g&t’s and we found a tap room that was closing. The fella working opened the door and talked me through all the beers on offer and sold me a few for takeaway.

First up is cosy nights a 8% vanilla porter
Then a mango coconut and pineapple smoothie sour 5% from arpus it’s exactly what it says on the tin. It’s a smoothie. Lovely fruity and thick.

Husband has the week off after the Bristol trip so we're sat in the garden (cooking) as you do with a beer. This one is a Darke and Strong Winter Beer from @DocAnna. I don't listen to the nonsense that says you can only have lighter drinks in the Summer!

I think this is my favourite from the selection of beers that Anna sent me to try.

The can says treacle and fruit flavours and that is definitely accurate. I love love love a super malty, medium to full bodied beer and this delivers those characteristics.

I would liken this to a 5am Saint, but I think this is better!

Thanks again for sending Anna, stunning beer!
