Various beverages while watching Glastonbury stuff.
Hoegaarden, then a thatchers cloudy lemon cider, a beavertown gamma ray and now being sensible with a brewdog punk af.

I appear to have opened a bottle of Bunnahabhain. Don't get me to type that again later.
Might do a comparison to the last of my Ardbeg after.

Laphroaig for me, luckily that’s stored in my phone’s dictionary 🥃

Hah, my wife had the Laphroaig. Might have to see if I still like it….
We are staying up in Tayvallich next month and have planned a trip to Islay. Tours of Bruichladdich and Ardbeg planned and may visit a couple more distillery shops too. Started saving already. Those Octomores look very interesting indeed.

Love the Laphroaig! Cask strength is my special treat over Christmas. I enjoy most of the Islays, but tend tend to stick to the Laphroaig 10 as the the lagavulin price has gone through the the roof!
Really love to have a trip there myself!

Grolsch. From a green glass bottle with the stopper-y thing.
Reliving my youth.

5 cans of Brew Dogs Black Heart Stout. It's good, one of those smooth commerical stouts like Guiness but I do prefer this to Guiness.
Now going to have a nightcap of Smokehead whisky. Nightcap might come in several glasses.

It's not technically 'tonight', but a beavertown gamma ray & a magic rock saucery to the good already.
What? It's a Saturday and the rest of the family are out. Sat here in the sun chilling. Lovely.

It got me on the eye, cycling along and it got wedged behind me glasses. Never been stung until then so was a nervous 70k worrying if I’d suddenly collapse from anaphylactic shock
Better have another negroni

Sounds like ptsd.

A few more negronis are prescribed.

Bought a bag of reduced sausage rolls for 50p. That needs a beer or two to go with. And crisps.

Is this a celebratory beer or two to toast the aforementioned bargain sausage rolls?

A Brewgooder/Brooklyn collaboration Session IPA which uses African Fonio. It's bloody lovely and the closest I've found to neck oil. Still expensive at £6 for 4 and the only place that stocks it appears to be co-op. But a definite thumbs up.

Kids finished at 1 today so spent the afternoon with a bit of laundry, cleaning kitchen, played some guitar, got the pot of minced beef simmering for Taco Friday, so I’ve just started a Manhattan and there’s a bottle of cremant in the fridge for some aperol spritz later, happy Friday you lovely people

I had another 2 of those Brewgooder ipas and a glass or two of malbec. Had a bit of a thirst on if I'm honest but ran out. Had expected to go to the pub for an hour or two so didn't think more would be necessary but that didn't pan out. Probably for the best...

Finished off the fizz while watching a couple of episodes of Sweet Magnolias, now I’m going to drink as much of my bottle of sparkling Peckham Spring as I can manage and go to bed. Rock n fuckling Roll lads

Unsung Brewing Let It Out New Zealand IPA (NZ because it used NZ hops; it’s brewed in Anaheim) and The Brewing Projekt Puff Tart XL. Didn’t realise the 4-pack had both, thought it was just the Let It Out IPA. Quite like the Puff Tart XL though; and the way Brewing Projekt spell their name, makes me feel like I’m in Cyberpunk 2077.

I think that Puff Tart XL might be the best beer I’ve ever had. Granted I love fruits and juice, and the fact that it feels like a smoothie that gets you lit and not an bitter IPA with a hint of fruit is a big feather in its cap or whateverthefuck is a good phrase to end that sentence with.
I love this though. It’s brewed in Wisconsin and I wish I was there to get it straight from the source.

Fruli is pretty great for that fruity beer buzz.
Peroni 0 or maybe a couple of fake rum and ginger beers here. Rock and roll birthday weekend! Had a few Guinness 0 last night and they're quite nice.

Hazy Jane tonight. Then maybe a gin, perhaps Harris, push the boat out.

So far a metroland 'two tribes' at lunchtime (with a patty&bun burger) , then a watermelon aperol spritz, and now a 'neck oil'.
Don't judge me, we're on our holibobs.

Had a sour cherry negroni from Hawksmoor steak restaurant earlier after my sister said they were amazing while we were passing.
Just nipped in for drinks with no food.
It was definitely a winner.
