What are you drinking tonight 2024.

I prefer the canned Tribute I find it seems to have a softer carbonation level than the bottled version not as nice as good cask Tribute but still one of my favourite commercial beers.

I just picked up a tatty box of 10 tribute reduced to a fiver in Sainsburys. Beer tastes even better at 50p a tin

A pilsner to finish

Having a couple of night caps, the next one is much better

 

[Donegal john]

Decent ipa with a Thai penang curry

And to finish

 

[Donegal john]

A few whiskeys from glenfiddich after a bushmills trio. And washed down with a Belgian triple.

Testing the strong bitter. Has been in keg for a week but will be transferring half to a polypin to have off the beer engine, and bottling the rest.

Cheated on this one with a Pocket Beer Engine but gives an idea of what the polypin version should look like.

Deep ruby colour, quite clear despite how it looks in the dimpled mug. Fruitcake and a touch of spice. Rather pleased with this.

The flavour of this is very distinctive, I’m not sure I’d say that I’m a big fan but I’m glad I bought it. Strange mouth numbing effect, it isn’t from bitterness as that isn’t high

A pint of Yorkshire Bitter, there isn’t much to love about winter but the fact that it makes the utility room the perfect temperature for bitter is one of them. This was a CML Yorkshire Bitter kit and I was surprised just how much dark crystal it used (5.5%) but it really does suit the beer, combined with a relatively low attenuation it gives the beer more weight than you would expect for a 3.4% beer, and being 3.4% means Incan have a few pints without regretting it, basically a nice solid session ale.

Really enjoying this, I don't think I've had it in cans before, very nice indeed.

I had a bottle of that last night very nice pint.

Cheers everybody

 

[Donegal john]

Nice stout. Very chocolatey don’t get any salt (thankfully)
@samale what didn’t you like about it ?

Another belter

A Mangrove Jacks Mango IPA which is 18 months in the bottle. I had just two left. Really really nice.

 

[Druss]

Got my first subscription box from Beer52 today, not exactly wowed by the three I set aside for this evening.

Probably the best of the trio, nice fruity flavours and long lasting pleasant mouthfeel.

A bit 'meh' and kinda cheap tasting.

Nice flavour but far too bitter for my taste.

I had this one on Thursday, think my tastes have changed, found it a bit sweet. Though it did the trick and I slept very well afterwards!

Courage Directors one of the better easily available malty ones in my view. The image through the glass is David Gilmour at Pompeii which is worth a listen.

 

[obscure]

A glass of port as why not.

 

[LesTom]

Day 4 of my advent calendar, a very nice porter although it's a wee bet on the thin side.

Day 5 of my advent calendar and an amazingly good IPA

Don’t know how to tell you this. But that’s a bottle not a glass.
