never beleive the hype of the branded basterds, there are many many good things that aint hyped by advertising..

Nice bottle of Cab Shiraz.

Actually, bottle number two – having dropped and smashed the first one. There was much swearing. 👿

On the plus side, my stepson is now hugely impressed and slightly awed at my extensive vocabulary

Pint or 2 of skull attack and maybe a glass of red

IIRC Ben Bracken is a branded Whisky that went bust and had the stock sold cheap.

1994 marques de Riscal, just about at its peak with a bit of fruit and zero tannin, like a low alcohol port.
kernel brewery London porter.
Maybe an old fashioned later.

Liking the idea of this spiced rum business….Kraken a good place to start?

not suprised with a name like that– but in general its true that a major part of a cost is advertising–

a new thread is needed for imaginary brands…..

Was drinking pints of Landlord in my local before but stopped now as gonna go for a run first thing tomorrow.

After declaring I wasn’t gonna drink all Christmas this year, tomorrow will be the fifth day of boozing in a row. No wonder I had sleep paralysis this morning. Got another two days boozing scheduled as well, so may as well make it up to the full 7 I suppose 🙄

Black Sheep Imperial Russian Stout, at the Cricketers Arms in Horbury.

Was Oyster Stout an hour or so ago, Cumberland Ale now, will be homemade eggnog in a bit.

Looking at our larder, you’d never tell someone in this house worked for the Marstons group of breweries….

My cider,brewed last year, still got about 50 gallons left but doubt it will ago tonight, merry Xmas fellow peeps !

Thish….. HIC!

Broken open the Advocaat now.

Bro drinking red vino: casillero del Diablo, a Cabernet Sauvignon from chile.

Bought some sherry from waitrose in a daze yesterday, didn’t so much as read the label, or price! Selected on the basis that it looked posh, was the last bottle on the shelf, and I couldn’t be arsed to dive into the scrum in the booze aisle.

Turned out to be absolutely lovely, bollocks to the price! Tasted fantastic with stichleton cheese.
