Your Pint of choice this evening

[Muppet the Cat]

No, apart from the lady after a saveloy. Very persistent.
You’d like this Cat. Amber Ale 4.8%
Lovely. Brewed about 8 miles away in Sudbury

Tbh, not one I've heard of or come across before, Foxy....but sounds nice

Did Suffolk Pride come before, or after London Pride ????

Nor me till today. From Waitrose.
They have a stout from them too but I’ll be stocking up on this. Proper Ruby ale. Lovely gear.
London Pride came first I reckon

Aldi Coffee Porter is like £1.29 a bottle (500ml) and it's lush! That said, I'm normally an IPA drinker (or Amber/Ruby) but am on Guinness tonight...

[60sUnited]

Getting back to pleasure....I am drinking Abbot Ale Reserve @ 6.5%....4 x 500ml bottles for £6 at Tesco.....tasty and doesn't seem too strong.

[Muppet the Cat]

A particular favourite, if not my very favourite

Only 5%
A lot of those Belgians are quite pokey
Where from?
Of course you have the glass for it

[Jaydog]

You said to me the other night Cat about London Pride or Suffolk Pride, who’s been brewing longest. I don’t know but Suffolk Pride is made by Mauldons since 1795. It’s on the neck of the bottle. Never heard of them till now and they’re just up the road. I’ve had quite a few now tbh!

I know, I tried a Chimay Triple (which I picked up in Tesco) last week which was 8%.......it was OK, but I don't overly enjoy the stronger-really strong ones.

You see the Leffe Blonde and Brune everywhere and I notice they've started doing the cans and 330ml bottles here as well. Blonde is even on tap in the Spoons near me. However, you try and find somewhere that sells the Ruby. Asda used to but stopped a year or two ago. I now have to order it from Amazon, although in the last 6 months it's gone up from £20 to £26 for 6x 750ml bottles........but still worth it

(and I came across the glass in a charity shop for 20p )

Give it a try, Foxy........lovely stuff !

Yeah I will. Ruby ale is growing on me.
So it’s an Amazon job. No problem.
£1 a bottle increase is quite a lot. Hang on a 750ml bottle. Nice

That sounds pretty established then

Yes, thing is when you polish one off......the good lady wife seems to think that justifies her drinking the same size bottle
of wine

That’s ok. Keeps them quiet. I didn’t say that mind you. Keep that one to yourself.

[Muppet the Cat]

A Batemans ‘Victory Ale’

Definitely more in hope, than expectation

[Muppet the Cat]

Obviously, I will have to be cracking open a bottle of this for every match here on in

[Rook]

A couple of cans of Kestrel Super!

[YorkshireSquare]

A pint of Crysencio Summerville please

[Muppet the Cat]

A couple of cans of Kestrel Super!

Blo*dy hell, do they still make Kestrel

[Rook]

Blo*dy hell, do they still make Kestrel

Yep!

9% strength of foul tasting Super strength Lager, guaranteed to get you smashed out your head, for £2:30 a can.

I'm not fussy with my alcohol choices

[Muppet the Cat]

Some differing beers ( as well as a bag of Mini Cheddars ) on that table, Sara

[Muppet the Cat]

No beer (or two) on a school night rules don’t apply when you’re away
