The Ale Thread.

[VirginInvader]

So far this week, I've been enjoying:
Hawkshead IPA
Fuller's ESB
Shepherd Neame's Bishop's Finger
Badger's Tanglefoot
The week is young though. I'm hoping to pick up a rather large stash of Brakspear and HSB tomorrow.

I'm currently enjoying one of these,



'tis very niiice

Those bad boys are ace, good stuff! I just found a bottle of 1698 under my bed (yeah, that's how I roll), so I'll be cracking that open now.

Brew Dog's ok. ish. I've only ever had Trashy Blonde, but it's seriously shit value for money. My dad bought me 2 330ml bottles of it and he worked out he'd paid the equivalent of 4 quid a pint

[Applecore]

3 Bottles of Hobgoblin for £3.99...Good ol' lidls round the corner!

Wow, gotta get myself down there, that's fantastic!

Quite a lot of Supermarkets have 3 ales for £4.. In fact, it's a good way to check out new stuff. T'is what I did

I got myself some Walsall brewery, Davenports for tonight. I have six beers from the same brewery, so hopefully ill find one I enjoy.





Davenports Original Bitter - im not even kidding right, I love this ale - both me and my dad (I give him a shot glass worth of every pint I have to give him a go too) are hoping that the rest of the beers are this good. Very deep flavour and goes down really smoothly.

Should be into Spoons for a few ales tomorrow for my pre-Gama Bomb sesh. Any reccomendations?

[Applecore]

Try the guest ales
Also, a generally safe (and often cheap) option is Ruddles County. Something like £1.35 a pint in my local 'spoon

The Wychwood one, Wychcraft? (The one that's Honey'd Ale) was quite nice...as was Fursty Ferret.

Go to the bar, observe the taps, and go from left to right.



DO NOT TRY THIS AT THE SQUARE PEG, BIRMINGHAM - The Square Peg in Birmingham is the longest bar in the United Kingdom. You wont even get a fraction up it, apart from the fact that alot of the beers get duplicated as you go up the bar anyway, so theres not much point.

Bottle of Marston's Oyster Stout at the minute. It's alright, but nothing special. Like most Marston's beers really.

I dont know, I quite like Old Empire. I know what you are saying though.
