Two of my Barkley Perkins Draught Lager, then the last but one of my disappointing brown ale. It's nearly gone!
What are you drinking tonight.

Not tonight, but my wife just took me to Budapest for my birthday at the weekend, and I grabbed two bottles of beer at the airport Spar. At about 80p for each 500mL bottle, I wasn't optimistic, but it turned out I'd hit the jackpot. Soproni Demon caramel malt stout. Fantastic dark beer. Doesn't seem to be available in the UK, sadly.

I’ve spent the day brewing with the Campervan Brewery in Edinburgh. Great day out and I think I had all their range I’d not tried before plus two guest ales too.
Now in 6degrees north for the northern monk takeover night.

that is their best beer, it's all downhill from there. I could tell you about how Tesco's was raided for ingredients for one of their other beers, but i'd have to kill you.

Had that on keg and it was lovely. Also had one of their pales and that was ok. Tried a few of their cans and they weren't so good.

had A st barnadus Xmas ale(odd I know but damned good) Finishing off with the weakest beer on the menu which Is the very good 2.8% striding edge from northern rock
I've had a batch of 1939 Barklay Perkins Sparkling Beer, and 1928 Barclay Perkins IPA carbing up in my custom built temperature controlled storage facility (brew fridge and builder's trub water bath in garage) for a week so I cold crashed one of each in the fridge to test for carbonation. Sparkling Beer first. Beautifully clear and fully carbed.
It's young, but really nice. Different. Very happy with this one.

On the 1928 Barclay Perkins IPA now. This needs another week in the brew fridge to fully carb up, but it's nearly there. Tastes very promising.
To reward myself for all this hard tasting work, I shall now venture into my secure liquid storage facility (my garage again) to get some homebrew. Probably an ESB.

Split batch wheat beer with 3 different yeasts and a can of Weissbier from Lidls. Only doing it if my partner in booze crimes is up for doing all 4.
I've already started with a truly awful can of Lidl Festbier that tasted of nothing but bad can. They do a huuuuge can of the same beer as part of a masskrug. I'll be getting blitzed whatever.

Couple of my own recipes tonight, ESB then Best Extra Stout. ESB is ok, but won't brew it the same next time. Best extra stout is the best thing I've ever brewed. So I had two.
