At our local to watch the match with my favourite beer and a meal to follow.

I may be drowning my sorrows after this start.

Yeah I have to confess I’m not very committed. On days I go to the pub all rules are suspended and I think I’ve had about a dozen pub days this month (someone has to keep the pubs afloat while everyone is doing dry January). I’m off to the pub again in a few minutes so I’ll probably not be posting tonight. Have a good night all. Cheers!Nor have i and never will, life is to shortthe other day my wife said just think 50 years ago you were 21 and i thought feckin hell thats scary
That is so true!Nor have i and never will, life is to short
I also don't have a lifetime to drink bad beer.
I'm a year older.

A very easy drink 6.0% pale ale, luckily only have one as it could be dangerous.

Came over to Wales but brought a beer from home. Not quite as sad as taking baked beans to Spain!

Only had a half bottle left, so that'll tide me over nicely for the remainder of the evening

A souvenir from the north. The label on the back claims it was VOTED THE WORLD"S BEST PILSNER but I think the Czechs might disagree! Not bad though.
Starting with this happy supping good people
At the beginning of April I am taking part in the "Kazbek Cup" competition in Zatec (CZ) with a DIPA.
Many microbreweries will be presenting their fantastic beers for tasting, and I'm looking forward to judging them.

Sounds great
Are you entering a beer or are you on the judging panel?

Im drinking the closest thing yet to the memories I have of childhood bitter (well 15 years old, I was a late developer)
It's a 4½% abv 35 ibu beer coloured beer made with 90% Red-X and 10% caramalt. Bittered with challenger, one version has late EKGs and the other aramis. I can't make up my mind which one I prefer. Red-X is a lovely malt with a dry toastiness which is not quite reminiscent of amber malt, the cara gives a bit of body without the cloying sweetness of crystal.
It pours with a lovely head.
Was going to attach a photo, but it's gone!

I added amber malt to my house bitter I've been tinkering with on and off for a while. A definite improvement! I also used challenger hops which I like. I think the bitter will be next on the list...or the Tribute!
The Mrs brought me home a few of these from shopping this evening.
