Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

Any love for the Kernel brewery here? I like their stouts a lot, prices are good too.

The Kernel are the best brewery in London.

Yeah I think so as well.
Fav place to drink is close too at Moor Beer Vaults =]

Yes and yes.

It’s very good and felt like a step up from what else was around when they first released it in the same way that Cloudwater’s DIPA Vxx series did. Now it’s an annual release and I don’t think will be very hard to get hold of as plenty has gone out to shops

I realised that I still have one of last years in the bottom of the fridge, for shame.

They’re the best. 5 for £11 in stokey Londis as well, not sure if that deal is on all the time anymore

I guess it’s all gone to cans this year, plus they’ve moved to a bigger facility so are making bigger batches across the board.

I remember seeing someone on Twitter getting upset about a pub in Bristol selling out before he could finish work and just wondering why anyone in their right mind would do such a thing on a public website

If you ever feel the need to see plenty more of this & start to think that perhaps even the gravel thread is too rational, knowledgable & coherent, can I recommend trying the UK Craft Beer Forum over on Facebook

You know what to wanna do with that right? You wanna put a corsenDONK on it.

Local brewer has run out of NE IPA and lager, and some other fruity numbers. So, I am drinking his new 5.7% Rye Ale. Surprisingly drinkable.

Ha, they actually used that gurn guy on the can.

Rapidly going through the Belgians I managed to pick up on my way back from France.

I saw that as well; I'm rather tempted, but £2o a bottle is past my pain threshold...

Just got the kiddo to sleep, ah.

I'll keep it for sharing, when we are allowed.....

You won't be far behind 😀

My problem is I've already got a cupboardful of headbanging stouts and barley wines; I'd organised a bottle swap and tasting with a bunch of my mates to clear the stash back in March, so that plan didn't work out...

Went for a run to finish at the bottle shop and it was closed 😭😭😭

Champagne and wine it is then

Ha, managed to sneak another and a scotch although the kiddo woke up at 4 and I'm questioning the wisdom of my choices 😂

Sad news. I feel even more lucky that my order made it here now.

I'm into lambic - tilquin is great =]

Love a lambic. Got this for later. Plus another Westmalle dubbel. Might also give the overworks sour stout a try too
