Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

Tried to get here last year but with GF in tow, it didn't happen... Leftfield do some good beers as well... Smashbomb Atomic IPA by Flying Monkeys is fuckin amazing

It’s not for me!

Ta, like what they do.

Cloud water x Duration is v nice 👌

Here, hitting the 1/3rds hard!

Engine Engine no.9, Timequake, & Dark Arts plenty enough for me.

Can of Bearded Lady Dessert Edn for Xmas day.

For those who like fruity beers, Beavertown Dead & Berried is well worth a try...

Beer Merchants are opening a bar/bottle shop in Hackney wick and are crowdfunding it

For every pound invested they give you £2 to spend on beer - so 50% off. Thought some on here might be interested. It's on my route home, this could be dangerous

I suspect that Amsterdam will now see significantly less LFGSS tourism:

Don't look at me, I've never used one.

*looks at hippy*

For serious

I found a new beer in my offy, it's by Plato, apparently started in a lock up in Nettle Market.
Not bad at all.

Very good Bristol stout

Interesting porter which is sweet and tastes of biscuits.

LOL...

Just discovered this, quiet literally the best bitter. My corner shop only ever seems to have one bottle at a time but that's probably for the best.

ahhh. . . poor man's Black Velvet. A very strange man introduced me to that a very long time ago. I don't remember much except waking up in a hedge somewhere in SW10.

Must try that...
Never been to SW10

hehe nice one

Had a St Peter's Whisky beer on Sunday, quite nice, subtle.

However... my palate was a bit over-stimulated after our weekend beer tasting (2 of our club of 8 enthusiasts sent over some boxes from California when they did a beer tour)

I once lived in SW10 for about two weeks. Had I known that I only had to check the hedges, I could have met Charlie five years earlier.

The bottle shape is fantastic too

yes! reminded me a bit of Portuguese Mateus wine bottles ;)

I'll go hunt for the bitter

They do a honey porter that's bloody marvellous.

I'll see if I can find it.

@peter_v their bottle shape is based on based on an 18th century bottle found near Philadelphia I think.
