Some more Courage Clone for me.
Must get an actual courage to compare.

Not a beer but, my first pint of my first turbo cider. I don't know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting it to taste this nice.
Strawberry, kiwi and red grape. Get a real nice strawberry aftertaste. Also its lovely and fizzy which is a relief after my ginger beer turned out flat.
Cheers all! Love this hobby :)
Read your post and decided on Admirals Reserve for me tonight. Lovely, malty, full bodied brew. Going down a treat just now...:drink:Just cracked and admirals reserve bottled the end of September. ..clear as a bell and mighty tasty...huwb. ..just you behave at that office party..not for me unless it's just the lads and no bosses...seen some right kick offs over the years between employees and management. .too much ale,bosses who are bastards all year and think a drink makes up for it and dick heads full of drink..
Cheers

Just opened a Belgian ruby from some pack of Belgian ales I have had a while. Quite nice actually
Difficault to go wrong with anything Belgian, one of my favourites is Leffe Nectar. Trouble is, it's almost 3 quid a bottle in Morrisons
Well on wednesday I found** myself in thornbridges brewery a 15 min walk from bakewell.
me and mrs doj did the tour and had 6 x 1/2 pint tikkies between us. she had lord marples (ooh er missus) and I had Jaipur,halcyon,something forgettable,an 8% thingy,any another halcyon. I asked what the samples were so I could buy a different beer to try out as many as poss they were the ones on tap . but in the tour room they gave out the same damn bottle of 8% that i'd already bought. however mrs doj was incapable of drinking anymore so the 1 bottle between 2 was all mine :twisted:
Finally at the tour end a 750ml bottle of serpent was opened, now there were 6 of us on the tour , 2 were driving and the remainder only drank the small sample they had left so I had the difficult task of finishing the bottle off. It was a Belgian beer meets cider result with american bourbon. It was a superb niche style 17/20 easily but worth ��ã15 a bottle? - A bit overpriced considering what ��ã15 could get you in other niche areas.
So it was well worth a visit, made better by the fact neither of us was driving!
**it was no accident :-)
