Yeasty Boys Love Bomb, about half way down and thought; "that's going down well" Can says 7%, feel I should be in the park shouting at the pigeons!!
If at first you don't succeed you're running about average!

Oooh, Kwak... Like central heating in a bottle, that stuff! Lovely, but makes me feel all warm and sleep after about half a glass.
Coffee with Suntory whiskey in it for me this evening - not much of a fan of it on its own, but it's delicious in coffee or a hot toddy. And makes me think of Bill Murray every time I open the bottle.

Re: What are you drinking now?
IT might not just be about beers but I am.
I'm a simple man with simple tastes when it comes to the imbibing of liquids.
Water or beer.
I drink a lot of water. I love water!
I drink just ever so slightly too much beer. I love beer.
Never tried tea or coffee. I'll have a glass of orange juice if I feel a cold coming on. Happily knock back a coke during bikepacking trips. And have been known to enjoy a glass or eight of red if no beer is available. I probably have, on average, two hot chocolates per year.
But on the whole, given the choice, I'll stick with either water or beer.
December 1st is going to be a lot of fun but I don't understand how/why they made November so damn long this year.....

Just had a very potent planter’s punch. One excellent rare good side effect of COVID is that the missus has discovered mixology.

Re: What are you drinking now?
Exactly, that's probably the mark of a good cocktail

Re: What are you drinking now?
Not quite sure why I got this, it's a little too powerful. Still, the sun's over the yardarm so I'll just have to drink it. Ho hum.

A particularly fine Chenin Blanc that Helen spent a fortune on and I’m quaffing like a pint of cider

Having looked up the brewery and found it on the map... not there. Sadly, it's as invented as I thought. Missed opportunity there

If he can recommend something that's in my fridge, I'll be impressed!Hopefully Landslide will be along shortly with a recommendation for us

Meanwhile, at Landslide Towers, this is pretty decent.

Stout. Fine. Chocolate? Certainly. Orange? Unusual but not without precedent. Pastry? Pastry??

Re: What are you drinking now?
Fair play for giving it a go. It's good to experiment. Maybe you could have frozen it into a tennis ball shape and put it in a kids xmas stocking. "This isn't a normal chocolate orange..."
