Followed by a curry 🙂
Doubtless followed by a couple in one of our locals. 🙂

I rarely drink but after this week I'll be getting a few ales out of the beer store in the garage! Some Badger, Cotleigh and an IPA or 2 I recon.

A couple of small somethings from the following list with lunch and perhaps I'll fill my growler for tonight.

Catherine's Pony!! This BrewDog/Beavertown collaboration gives you an Imperial Smoked Porter sporting a berry nose and delicious notes of chocolate coffee beans fused together with a vibrant hoppiness.

Brewdog - Dead Pony Club, 5AM Saint, Punk IPA, Libertine Black Ale, Jackhammer, Dogfight, Cocoa Psycho, and Paradox: Isle of Arran.

Guesties: Summer Wine Brewery's Barista, Brodie's Milk Chocolate Mocha-Port Barrel, and Wild Beer Co's Ninkasi.

Early start today Ton? 😉

[i]it could be a night of john smiths smooth flow[/i]

I once woke myself up from the smell in my halls of residence student room after a night of John Smiths smooth flow 😯

I'll be stopping off at Waitrose to pick up some Friday night tipples (I'm thinking something from the Bristol Beer Factory), then a night on the sofa with the little lady and a dirty Friday night takeaway. Maybe have a cheeky pint of whatever the Twelve Bells has on tap on the way to picking it up.

Singha Beer in the Thai at the Travellers tonight to celebrate my youngest lad's 14th birthday, love dining out with the whole family - 4 grandparents and the 4 of us.

john smiths smooth I'd drive to get out of drinking it! Have known me n raine argue over who was driving home from a do to get out of suppin it needless to say she won G

Forgot to say
Brewery tomorrow meeting up with lowey n the bummers and poss kieth to end a month of abstenance (may sneak a quiet one in tonight tho)G

Whatever local ales are on 4 for £5 at asda. I'm heading straight to the gym after work do I have left mrs Crispo to pick me up a selection while she is getting stuff for tea.

Should imagine it will be consumed in front of a film turned up extra loud as the neighbour has just moved out so we have an empty house next door!

Post lunch update

Wild Beer Co's Ninkasi is a lovely light and frothy Saison style beer with apple juice and champagne yeast. Very nice.

Summer Wine Brewery's Barista was nice, very coffee flavoured dark beer which was a bit like drinking a cold coffee (in a good way... a very lovely cold coffee).

Brodie's Milk Chocolate Mocha-Port Barrel was the absolute stunner of the day. Beautiful smooth full flavoured imperial stout style beer with loads of coffee and milk chocolate with a hint of spice from the port barrel... the growler was filled for this evening and as my wife is out and kids will be in bed I shall be drinking this and watching The Return of the King on DVD. There is some of this in a rum barrel which should be equally interesting in the next few weeks... thank you for the amazing beer Mr Brodie 8)

I tasted the BrewDog/Beavertown Catherine's Pony collaboration and liked it, but they expect to have it for a few weeks so the beer's above which were ending soon or limited supply were what I chose to sample.

It's a hard life.

1 x Gallon of English Pale Ale
1 x bag of Black Country Pork Scratchings
Venue: Royal Oak. Tettenhall Wood. Wolves.
1 x usual Saturday hangover.

White or Blond

Robh - As people who've met my missus will know, I'm partial to Blond 😉

justme - I'm out on the bike tomorrow afternoon and I'm hoping to pop in to the brewery to see your good self and Lord Lowe. What time you aiming for?

Ahhh, Pontecarlo...... I'll be at Sandal RUFC tomorrow mate, few cheeky Nigerian Lagers I think.

Currently enjoying a Kelpie Seaweed Ale, bit of a risk getting it but it's paid off. Not sure I can taste any seaweed in it, although that's probably for the best 🙂

Recovering from an ankle injury. Sat on the sofa watching films, just started with a bottle of Cobra.

Old Hall in Whitehough for us later.

Always a fine choice of cask beers.

Well I just had three bottles plonked on my desk from a nice chap from Skye Homes; Black Cuillin, Hebridean Gold, and Oyster Stout, all from the Isle of Skye Brewing Company. Still job hunting though, unless it's damn good beer!

Staying home, an hour on turbo and maybe a Becks blue.

Maybe a cheeky Balvenie later on 🙂

called for a pot on the way home.
dissolution ipa on in the cross keys.......too moreish,, 😀

Badger Golden Glory, at home on the sofa after a loooong week at work.
