Sitting in the sun at Alfie byrnes having a fantastic siren Proteus and watching all the lovely office women walk over and back between the offices
What a fantastic place to people watch at

Bornem Double from the Lidl Selection box, prachtig !

Had my first Stone last night. First few sips were bad, no realy hop flavour or aroma. Left it for 5 mins and it made a huge difference, loads of hops and intense bitter finish. Not the most refined IPA but I'd get it again if looking for a nice better hop beer.
Had a Magic Rock Salty Kiss as well. Nice but better beers of that type around. don't know much about Gose beers but it was a bit like a sour but not as good as White Hag's lemon sour.

Currently drinking my first 'Berlin' Stone IPA. It's a very good beer. Lots of pine and grapefruit on the nose and palette, big hops, a dry finish with a long lingering bitterness. Delicious.

O Brother Who What Wheat Where, American wheat IPA. Not loving it, big bitterness to start goes abit bland then and finishes bitter again. No sweetness or fruitiness in particular.

Brewdog Hinterland. It's a pity it's a limited release that's no longer available because it's a bit special.

Got a present of a few bottles of 'St Bernardus Abt 12' last night off a guy, tried that beer last year and its still like cream, great after taste and what a nice buzz from it, only have the two but that's enough for starters, have a bottle of 'Franziskaner wheat' also a great beer and a bottle of 'Tap 7' to finish it off, bit of a mix but all great beer I think and looking forward to the night

Trouble / Coisbo Milk Stout. I love it.

had a lovely session Rye Ale from Dotbrew last night. I couldn't get enough of it. Lovely stuff

How was the Guinness?

HopsAndJumps · 27-06-2016 09:04PM

Also have a stone IPA. It's been years since I've had this beer, this is a beautiful old school IPA, very bitter, nice and piney.

It's mad how much IPAs have changed over the years. These days it's all late addition hops and massive aroma steeps and dry hopping.

I can see why some people are disappointed with it, but this is and old school American IPA style.

That's just standard Guinness in retro packaging.

Yellow Belly/Hope, Castaway - Most excellent. Will pick up a few more of these.
Woodkey Brewing Anniversary session ale - Enjoyed this, packing a good punch of flavour, a lighter bodied Pilgrim.

Ronan|Raven · 28-06-2016 06:47PM

Finally getting around to drinking the bottle of Castaway I purchased a few weeks ago. Superb, what a beautiful drink. I regret only buying one now...

Rob987 · 29-06-2016 06:12PM

Enjoying a bottle of Kloster Andechs hell, followed by Weihenstephaner weissbier dunkel. Have a case of Paulaner original munchner hell (lager) on the way from the UK. Love my German beer!

Founders Sumatra Mountain Brown Ale

9% ABV. Delicious Imperial Brown Ale. Rich, sweet, coffee, chocolate, all perfectly balanced.

Creamy Goodness · 29-06-2016 09:07PM

funnily enough sipping on this now, didn't realise it was 9% until I read your post (was gulping it down beforehand).

Yep, that's the thing. It's so easy to drink.

Blacks World's End. I've had it a while but now I'm regretting that I only bought one of them. It's seriously good.

I've eight of them, really great beer. O'Briens seem to have a few left in a few stores.

Just checked, loads left especially naas for some reason, https://www.obrienswine.ie/blacks-imperial-stout-50cl-bottle.html

Nice one, might have to try and hunt some down.

UnknownSpecies · 30-06-2016 07:20AM

World's End is a cracking beer, probably the best I've had all year.

Who is this DOT brewery? Taking the P a little bit with a €9 release for an imperial stout for their first beer. Think it's a 330ml

Yeah thought it was 500ml when the guy in Martins pointed it out but checked online and it's showing as 330ml on their site. Anyway it's €9 in Martins so I'll blame them.

It anygood?

What beer are we drinking this week, too?
