Where did you get that

Here's a Coopers Irish Stout after 23 months in the bottle. Liquorice and feels stronger than the 5% ABV it was when bottled. Must have one on Friday!

Half of bitter before I have to go shopping. Might swing by the bottle shop and see what commercial bitters I can find.

Having shop bought while I wait for mine to condition, I am finally learning patience, so who doesn’t like a 1698

Last one tonight after yesterday's session. Nice punchy aroma in this one..nice beer, a little soft for my taste but good beer all the same

1698 is one of my favourite beers.

First taster bottle (330ml) of my Pale Malt Saison (Target hops/CML Lille Saison yeast) small batch. A week in the bottle .... needs a bit more carbonation, and it's hazy/cloudy, but don't mind that.
Sure it will get better over a few weeks. First impressions:
- light malty flavour (pale ale only!)
- nicely hoppy but not overpowering
- refreshing/hint of fruity, a nice summer drink (ice cold perhaps)

Just got home, turned up the heating, and poured myself a bottle of beer. Bloody nectar! Even the aroma is amazing.

Feeling sooo tired (it’s like 02:30 for me now) but I can’t have only one beer tonight. This one next. Tomorrow I’ll clean my beer lines and get my own beers on tap.

I wish I’d have known you were going to Dubai. We go every year. Trick is to stock up on “cheap” beers and other alcohol in duty free on the way out of Dubai airport 😉

There are a couple of bottle shops there (and the odd Irish bar) but they are not well known and certainly don’t stand out on the high street. The local Brit workers are the key to finding them.

They used to have a "Beers of the World" selection at the airport, but when I was there in February, there were only the usual (non)-favourites- Heineken, Peroni and Sol etc. Most disappointing...

I now have some beers back on tap and I’m enjoying an unexpected sunny afternoon in the garden with a glass of bitter. It has just a touch of haze in the sunlight but is the first glass from a fresh keg so maybe it will clear properly after a few pints.
