Right, as I know one or two people on here are partial to a bit of fine tipple (not to be confused with nipple) on any (or all) days of the week, I thought it a good idea to create a safe, happy environment in which people can talk about their [s]dependancy on[/s] enjoyment of alcoholic beverages without fear of being called an alcoholic/drunk or worse.
Tonight I am mainly drinking very distinctive, top shelf plonk from breweries that couldn't be classified as micro-sized even if I were the one and almighty God looking down on the peasants of the world like a boy on an ant hill (Yes Woppit, God watches us 24-7, 365 days a year and come the end he will judge you!)
I am drinking this:

This:

And this:

[/img]
Please note that I am not drinking all of the delectable beverages listed above at the same time. To do so would spoil the distinctive fragrant nose of each drink and would be quite uncouth!
If you too are enjoying a clean, crisp pint of something frothy this evening, please share with all what your poison of choice is and what method of consumption you choose to employ (mouth, eyeball, nostrils etc.)
Farewell to all.
I'm drinking red wine in accordance with the iDave diet. I have 2 glasses a night otherwise the diet doesn't work.
I'm off the britneys this week. So for me, it's:

OP - DAB = Class! The rest? Oh dear....
After a few too many icy cold Estrella over recent days, it's a Pure UBU and a Brakspears Triple for me.
Im on Manchester's finest export - Fosters (or atleast I will be when they have chilled to a drinkable temperature)
Houns... you want to ask for that pint topped up. Barmen have been sacked for serving pints like that in Yorkshire
[img]

😥
bwoolymbr; I spent an entire evening in the Dab beer tent at the Munich beer festival - great beer and nae hangover!!!
Enjoying my very good summer find at Majestic ATM. Have stocked up already

Quinta de Azevedo Vinho Verde 2010
Only £5 a bottle at the moment and very good at that price it is.
Ton...do you want me to drop you off some very fresh decaff coffee?
Pure UBU
good call Flash, not a bad pint that, albeit a bit rich for more than a couple
.
after 5 laps of Regent's Park this evening, I went to the Green Man on Portland St and had a pint of this
[img] 
[/img]

and a pint of this
[img] 
[/img]

Conrad.........it would be greatly appreciated mate.
DAB is ace! 😀
Tesco (speshul offer innit) Leffe Blonde here. When I lived in [s]the Motherland[/s] France, people in my local would all go "ooooh" if you ordered a Leffe, like you were a city boy made of money. 😕
[img] 
[/img]
CHB, pic was from Google, but mine was poured from a can so not a full pint
Brakes, you need to change pubs.
Life's too short to drink bad beer.
Co-op French stumpy's going down a treat here 8)

Ian
Can of John Smiths followed by a drop of merlot

It's not a school night for me though, shift work means that I'm currently on my days off and as Foxyrider said; it's on offer.
Stella gives me wicked hangovers. Peroni is lush. Like magners best though.
Brakes, you need to change pubs.
sometimes the best pub is the closest pub 🙂
thejesmonddingo..........tesco mate.
Not if it sells bad beer.
emsz Magners is pish,try the Henney's,they do a sweet as well for the laydees lol
Intoxicants are an abomination, Satan's handiwork, eschew such abomination, that ye may prosper.
Satan's plan is but to excite enmity and hatred between you, with intoxicants and hinder you from the remembrance of God, and from prayer: will ye not then abstain?
Not in Penistone mate,I'll have to try a big city one.
Ta,Ian
We had curry so
[img] 
[/img]
will ye not then abstain?
maybe tomorrow
You'll want to settle down....
I'm having a can or two of Punk IPA.
They do it in stubby cans these days, get in!
I usualy stock the beer fridge with a selection of badger ales, my favorite being the golden champion. [img] 
[/img]
However, If I lived near my sister in ross-on-wye, Id mostly stock up on the local micro brewerys selection. Kingston Brewery in tinton, just up from the abby has a fine selection and I perticually like this one!
[img] 
[/img]
If you live anywhere near, I recomend a trip for a tasting session, followed by a ploughmans in the little beer garden behind the brewing shed overlooking the valley. Awsome!
You'll want to settle down....
until tomorrow
I'll just keep moving barstools

+100 man points can-uk
Drinking at 8am does not mean that you have a problem, no matter what people may say!
Nothing for me this week as I am saving myself for Stourbridge Beer Festival on Friday (and possibly Saturday if I play my cards right!).
Saying that, I might pop into the pub for a pint of this tonight though:
[img] 
[/img]
A beautiful dark brown brew with a foaming head.
Happy Donkey's beautiful Italian Espresso blend.
[img] 
[/img]
I,ve been drinking a weird concoction for the last 5 weeks, green/peppermint tea with goji berries, brewed at the same time as the tea then honey when it cools and add some red wine.
I now only drink about 1 bottle of red wine a day, so all good!
187ml bottle not a full one!
[img] 
[/img]
Stourbridge beer festival?! How come i didn't know about this until now? *Googles*
What time you heading to it tomorrow Lunge?
on chill for the weekend
[img] 
[/img]
Houns, early as I can! It gets very busy from about 8pm so I get there eariler to avoid the queues. Saturday is much quieter but there is generally less beer left. Free entry on Saturday after 5pm as well.
Beer 🙂
I'm off tomorrow so may head down in the afternoon

The old purple tin,
The old purple tin,
Sweet testament Lord,
To the state that I'm in,
I've drunk it all day,
And I've drunk it all night,
The old purple tin,
Oh Lord, lights up my life

Last week I made Strawberry & Cream Vodka
The weekend I made Murray Mint Vodka
Yesterday I made Rhubarb & Custard Vodka
Oh, with the left over Vodka I poured it into a jar of Strawberry flavoured Rock.
Somehow I'm a bottle down, just from taste testing..
While on the subject of AA how many people have appreciated to much then tried to ride home and stacked it?

Riding home from the Swan in Enford one night, I think I may have swerved. I woke up in the ditch at about 0900 the next morning.... 😳
Good work!
The reason I ask is I have two levels of drunk, very and extremely. Now while very drunk I seem to be ok riding home, on the cycletrack may I add!!!!!
But the other day I was extremely drunk and I ended up getting on the wrong side of a bin in a park!
Worst crash I have had to date!
Mrs BigJohn and I always ride our pub bikes into town, and back.
We have now become quite good at falling off gracefully, in a relaxed fashion, but because I ride fixed there was once a pedal interlocking moment that had a muddy ending.
I also remember a nasty incident when I had my guitar slung over my shoulder, wearing flipflops with clips'n'straps (not a good combo) and when out of the saddle over that really steep railway bridge by the pub the strap slipped down, trapping my arms. No real damage but a bit of a scare.
My normal pub tipple is Mine Beer from Blindman's brewery, which is a farm near Frome. They've brought out this special: Buzz Light Beer
