Well I wouldn't be likely to post here. I don't drink shorts (or wear 'em), I don't like wine and I regard real ale as fit only for washing out paint brushes. Sticking to lager thanks. :D

And i,m on the wagon...... more or less :(
Its written in the scriptures.....written there in blood.;)
Nope - just had a slug or two of the Auchentoshan that was on offer in Tesco. http://theartofsound.net/forum/showt...Saturday+night (post 1843)
Cut back on the wine drinking, but when I get around to it I post the 'slurps' we've enjoyed over the last few months. :)
(It's too cold for lager now - it's a summer drink.)
You've been rather remiss, old chap, as you used to regularly post pics of what wine you've been drinking... ;)
I drink various types of imported lager all year round, and real ale only on draught (preferably in a nice country pub, in one of those pint pots with a handle, or a tankard), as for me the bottled stuff is shit in comparison!
I also rather like Crabbies alcoholic ginger beer :)

A wee glass of red with dinner tonight
Curry tonight - so water only.
There are (white) wines you can drink successfully with a curry, you know ;)
Failing that, have you tried a nice big glass of mango Lassi? That's what I have sometimes - great for cooling the heat from chillies [which water only aggravates]! :cool:

Went to this brewery on a 10 day beer tour of Bruges and Brussels and surrounding bits. That was 25 years ago.
Of all the beers, this was for me the best by a margin. I've just ordered 20 bottles of it.
It has a problem, though. 330ml bottles and 9% but you cannot taste it is strong. I actually think it is stronger than 9% in practise. 3 bottles and you are pretty pissed but at the same time amazed at how good it tastes. If you do 4...:D
It is stunning at the right temperature.
Watch it f^&* this guy up... when you try it, by the end of the third bottle you will be staggered. He's just had a few sips, LOL.
He's overplaying the sourness aspect IMHO but it is there, no question, but then there's so much more:) Complex tasting in extremis. I have exhausted the Beers Of Europe stock pretty much with the single 20 bottle order. It is hard to get here. It is a small brewery, acres of copper everywhere. Amazing to see.

This Broglia Gavi from Waitrose is an absolute steal reduced from 14.99 to 9.99
I have been disappointed by the quality of special offer wines from Waitrose in the past but I'm so pleased I took a punt on this -
beautifully ripe summer peaches and zesty lemon, it didn't take long to see this one off ...

Just a heads up, Asda have an offer on some wines at the moment, 6 bottles for £24, worth a look :)
