Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

I've never had a De Molen that was anything short of awesome.

Interested to try their pale stuff at some point.

Might have to pop to the Monk brewery tomorrow then.

:D

I had an awful pale beer they did recently but it was a collab with Beer 52 which might explain why it was shit

Still a couple of places left on tomorrows adventure if you're quick, a ride out to 18 East London breweries with 6 proper stops along the way

Joseph Holt Sixex, very bonfire night ale.

Any pub recommendations in the Aldgate East area, I've got a couple of hours to kill Friday.

Yep, 10 minute walk is The Craft Beer Co, epic selection.

Another option, more of a regular boozer, this one had Punk IPA on tap last time I was in (two weeks ago).

Nice one. Thanks, should be able to waste some time in these.

The Draft House is also worth a look, 10 min walk, decent burgers too

Goose Island's Bourbon County will be on sale in the UK on black friday. Not sure where yet though.

I'm making my xmas cake this year with Renaissance Stonecutter Scotch Ale. Mmmmm.

We might be there with @Cupcakes just waiting to find out what time he gets into London.

Rich will be there from around 8pm

I'd be all over those barley wines. Mikkeller smash it out the park when it comes to the stronger ones.

I'm with you on that! Nice quiet Friday evening with some barleywines.

Tru say

Can confirm barleywines are tasting mighty fine

Was there earlier and had some Spontancherryframboos and some of the stout, quite tasty!

Can't see past Rain Shadow still. Did get a Barrel Aged version tonight too, 12.2 so stronger, one for Xmas I think. Be good to compare it against The Living End Bourbon one too, might get messy though.

Fantastic selection at The Plasterer's this eve. Wild Weather Jack Daniel's-aged Strawberries and Dream pale ale, amazing nose, if not super exciting. Really enjoyed 12 Second Panda IPA. Fourpure Deucebox, unbelievably good orange DIPA. Tried a few crazy-strong Odyssey kegs, Dr Green Thumb DIPA (9.2%), Fiendish Breakfast (9.9%) and Double Dank Zombie Blood (7.4% - my fave), but finished with Magic Rock Dark Arts. nom

Lidl Lewisham has a load of those £10 Van Steenberge brewery 6 bottle packs

On clearance @ £9 now

Anyone know anywhere central (London) likely to have Brooklyn Brewery Black Ops in stock?

Not quite central but the Bottle Shop had some last time I checked.

That will do nicely, thanks
