What are you drinking tonight 2025

[Donegal john]

More up my street

 

[obscure]

I was drinking a Pinot Noir with the roast lamb but now having an after dinner Negroni.

 

[Leon103]

Starting with a sour

 

[Chippy_Tea]

Starting with a Master Stoat then onto a Ruby Beer for a change.

 

[micklupulo]

The beer is Dark Rock part grain Malvern Pale Ale

bottled May 2024. The glass is by the

Mws Pws (noun before adjective I suspect!) brewery which is Welsh for Purple Moose whose beers are worth sampling!

Err fat finger here...

Onto the second of the beers @dave_77 very kindly shared with me - a Belgian Single.

Pale gold colour with a tight white head and good clarity. The aroma is predominantly spicy phenols with a little citrus. Flavour is similar, with the citrus notes coming through a bit more along with some honey, biscuit malt character. Finishes very clean and quite dry, very refreshing.

This is right up my street and is a cracking beer - I can see why it placed well at the Scottish Nationals.

 

[Leon103]

This is very nice

 

[LesTom]

A bit of a find from LIDL

In a happy conincidence there’s an off licence 5 minutes from the house we’ve just bought with the best bottled beer collection I’ve seen for a while. A fee for this eve…

Time for another brew then!

Finishing with another beer from Maverick

 

[Druss]

Very cheap single malt, in fact, such a cheapo one that I'm taking it out of my collection to make room for something better.

Still very nice for it's price point though (about £18 from Tesco if memory serves), way more complex than it has any business being at such a bargain basement level.
