Sadly, I've had a day off beer. I'll be smashing it again tomorrow.

My pal is coming round. We're going to be sampling the secret santas. In addition, I have some out of date Belgian beers (which are strong, so will be perfectly drinkable) and a couple of other beers that I've been saving. Including a 11.5% imperial stout. I'm not working on Friday 😂

Today was brought to you by Bucks Fizz, Dark Horse Chardonnay, Jam Shed Tempranillo and now, a Glenmorangie as the wife kindly bought me a bottle.
 
Happy Christmas to you all. I had a lovely day. Did a parkrun this morning with my Cocker Spaniel. Had an Irish Fry up breakfast afterwards and cooked a butterflied leg of lamb on my Weber Charcoal BBQ. Weather was so mild I sat out in the garden with my speaker, favourite play lists and wife. Drank beer, a beautiful bottle of red wine, and finally a couple of Brew Dog Beers. Happy Christmas everyone 🎄🎅.

Well, it's after 9pm, time for a seven cherry martini! (3 cherry gins, vermouth, a dash of pechaud bitters and three morello cherries).

Have you tried it with custard or do you prefer whipped cream?

Only joking @Druss , I know nothing of such matters. I'm sure it's lovely. And I'm one to talk as you shall see.

In the meantime, I have reached the stage where my palate is completely jaded and so I bought some lager for a couple of lagers and lime. I was surprised to find that Kronenbourg 1664, while far from excellent, was surprisingly acceptable and I drank the 2nd half litre without the lime. I remember it being quite ghastly! I note that the beer here is 5.5% abv while the same brand on Tesco online is only 4.6%. What's all that about, then?
