[hello spiral]

lol. Indeed!

Far right is 375 but yeah, all the rest are 330.

 

 

Might also have 3 bottles of wine though, including one that Kris recommended that's 15%

Brewing up a delicious dark at the moment, bottled about a week and a half ago, so should be ready to go in a couple of weeks.

 

Haven't bought anything yet for NYE, it's gonna be a quiet night as me and the missus are both sick. Couple of ales I'm sure, maybe a nice chocolate porter.

 

And if any of you want to increase your alcoholism, download the app untappd, and drink socially with RL friends. Tis great fun.

Just managed to snag the following from the Stone Pasadena outlet:

Been on the wine tonight, I have to say my (fucking massive era) of beer drinking may be coming to an end.

 

Seriously speaking I have a reflex action towards shit that becomes popular. I fucking hate fashion trends. And beer I'm afraid seems to be going that way. I went to a boozer not far from me, it has all the latest brews and the pub was full of cunts lol.

 

So I'm getting into wine, or perhaps a decent methylated spirit lol. Either way...what the fuck...I love beer! I just hate when stuff I've been into for aeons becomes fucking trendy. You know what I mean.

Guy on the left is a favourite of mine

The monks brew is absolutely stunning (sometimes called Monk's elixir too, I've had several bottles of each and they're identical).

 

Let me know how the George stout is!

[joshuatxuk]

bought this on a whim among my usual PBR 12 packs and seasonal winter ales, really dug it

Easy night in tonight, not feeling so great. Two porters plus two relatively strong ales (nothing like those bloody Belgian beers spiral is drinking), asking for a hangover on top of this lingering cold. Oh well, 2015, YOLO.

 

[hello spiral]

Noice!

 

Heh, ended up only drinking the Zodiac IPA then we both switched to wine.

 

Looks like it's gonna be a boozy new years day!

i've always been a big fan of Chimay, and i recently found this in my local bottle king, the Chimay Doree, which is usually reserved for the monks themselves and visitors to the abbey and local inn:

My No. 1 beer of all time, i stumbled upon Joker about a year ago and had to accept the fact i'd spent years in the wilderness drinking tasteless pisswater. It's a taste sensation and you need to get this beer.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Isnt that 7%? Cripes............not supped any booze for ages

 

Although you'd usually find this in CAMRA supporting pubs, it is nectar of the most delicious kind (considering the high alcohol content):

 

[cwmbrancity]

dodgy 80's metal album cover themed indeed

 

#jameshetfieldyeeeaaaaaawwwwww

 

 

and if you saw this on tap you'd have to try a pint:

Expensive as hell, but so so good.

[Rubin Farr]

Killed an Angry Orchard Summer Variety 12 Pack this weekend. The ginseng brew tastes like sushi to me, lol

Yes indeedly doodly, one of my favourite stouts.

[Hugh Mughnus]

ergh... I just took inventory of all the beer I have . I guess I'm set for awhile... I didn't realize I was hoarding this much.

 

The ones in orange are in the fridge, we're going to work on them today.

 

Anyone else have a hoarding problem with beer or wine?

 

Anyone wanna come over and help me with these? haha

I've never tried this. It's on my radar now though, looking to see if I can order it from zyn.

Anyone here tried Ballast Point's Sculpin or Grapefruit Sculpin? They're my current favorite brews.
