  • It's the jackhammer ipa rebranded, or so i've been told?

  • I think it's actually the double Punk (cnut) IPA.

  • Last night's tipples:
    Thornbridge Cocoa Wonderland - super chocolatey porter. The aroma is thick enough to spread on toast. Would quaff again.
    Chorlton Brewing Co. Dark Matter and Yakima Sour - both a bit too sweet and fruity for my liking, though the Yakima had a nice sherbety edge to it. Wouldn't seek them out in the future.
    Epic Pale Ale (New Zealand) - pretty standard new world IPA with mucho hops. Nice, but nothing mind-blowing.

  • Need to try that Thornbridge porter....

    My workmate has left me a bottle of Weird Beard's Something Something Darkside in the fridge. Looking forward to that!

  • I have a bottle of Something Something in the cupboard here. Must.. resist..

  • Fuck.. just carried the box of cans I ordered from the loading bay. Idiot!

    Thought it was the USB adapter I ordered not a billion kilos of beer that I can't even drink.

  • Had an Epic Hop Zombie IPA that blew everything else I'd tried out of the water yesterday evening. It was up against Northern Monk & Buxton and was still a proper stand out.

  • The WB Something Something Darkside was exceptional.

  • Apparently alcohol is bad for healing broken bones. deletes thread

  • Find another peer reviewed study which shows that alcohol is good for healing broken bones. Believe that.

    #fuckyeahscience!

  • When I snapped my wrist, I took a lot of vitamin C. It's meant to increase the rate of healing in the early stages.

  • I could probably do with more of that. I'm already smashing calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and Vit D as well as protein so that should help.

    In terms of beer, I carried a whole 4 cans of Punk IPA home last night.

  • Mallorca, anywhere with decent beers, or am i gonna have to suffer pissy lager?

  • Beavertown's Heavy Water went down a treat last night

  • I didn't read about your break, but calcium make come in handy later when your bones have bonded, but in the short term, I don't think it makes much difference. Have a search for Vit C and bone healing. Anyway, back on topic!

  • First job was in Didsbury so thought I'd take a slight detour, gonna bosh one of these after a cup of tea as a pre polo warm up, probably the jaipur.

  • How much??!!££

  • Good value for 10% I reckon,

  • They had a brewdog mikkeller bottle at £15.suttin, that was 15% ish too though.

  • ^ Burton Rd? I'm headed there on way home tonight gonna grab some of that Cocoa Wonderland I reckon. Enjoy yours.

  • Yeah, I thought I hadn't been there after you posted about where you got yours, Google mapped it and was quite excited about going in a new beer shop. Arrived and realised I'd spent a night drinking outside it, heavily, after watching the polo worlds, left my bike next to a tree I threw up on a little.

  • Also thought I'd got lucky inside when I'd searched the whole shop for the X, eventually found the thornbridge section and there were 2 left behind some other beers, thought about buying both but they're quite expensive (but good value). Went to pay and there was 2 crates in the window by the till with about 8 more bottles on top.

  • Buy them all.
    Deliver them to me.
    Profit.

  • ^^^ they should blue plaque that tree.

    I copied your two plus a Left Hand "Fade to Black".

    The Choc Porter is ace.
