Turned out to be quite easy to work out which batch it was - it was labelled Marlish Porter
. Checked when I made it - August 2015 so 8 years old.Definitely going to test it later.

I'm so glad the lights are LED strings these days. The hours I've spent going through multiple tree lights pulling each bulb out and testing it to find the one (or sometimes more) bulbs that have blown and then trying to match it up with the collection of different sized, different voltage, different shaped spares
.Not as much time as my father-in-law though. One year the mother-in-law convinced him that checking bulbs was a dangerous activity so he turned the electricity off. They took so long trying to make the lights work that it got dark and they had to use a torch to see what they were doing and couldn't understand how they had definitely found the blown bulb but the lights still wouldn't work. Eventually the penny dropped that having electricity switched off wasn't a smart move. Nearly died laughing when he told me the story.
For some reason the fused one with the white tip that was supposed to blow first never did. 
I would happily drink out of a stoneware stein…you would have to guess what everyone was having on this thread though!I should have read the rest of the thread before my previous post
Crikey, your right now I think about it. The fuse one was rarely (if ever) the bust one.For some reason the fused one with the white tip that was supposed to blow first never did.
I have a stoneware Stein. It's used for my toothbrush.
The afore said blending process.
Pre-sterilised hosepipe, so pretty much anaerobic and aseptic transfer.
Result - one cask of KCB.
Meanwhile a preprandial of my Kent golden ale.
Tasty.

Nothing wrong with the people it was just I had to drive
Sharing this one. Smells and tastes exactly like a drifter chocolate bar. Huge fan of this one.
So this was a major f**k up by me; I don't like smoked beers and guess what? - I didn't read the label and it ended down the sink 
Had these in Lidl again and really enjoyed it last time.
May have to try brew a märzen. Really like them, but never brewed one before

Lamb Delicious stew with Chilean Merlot. All delicious.
The aforementioned Marlish porter. Tastes like coffee !!! And chocolate ice cream.

Not the German stuff. I'm always on the look out for Victorian Mochaware pint mug for the vintage pint pot collection. Not enough to pay £80 Ebay prices though.
Couple of lagers this evening followed by the weekly sample of my Goldings SMaSH. Still far too watery for me but mellowing out a touch…
Edit - estery not watery…

You pay a lot and finish with flat beer. It’s only a gimmick
