They are excellent.
I picked up my sister a bottle of Brewdog's new Abstrakt for her to give my brother-in-law for Christmas, an Imperial Baltic porter. :drool:

I'm on the Brewdog. Elvis Juice and Punk :cool:
Got 8 mates on Untappd already. Cheers boys.
Starting my account with two 1-star reviews might not be the best start in life, but at least I’m honest. Things can only get better.
Tried that untapped thing. Couldn't find any whatevers in my area. Uninstalled.
I’m just gonna use it to rate beers I have so I can remember which ones I like.Quote:

Fandan described me using it in a bottle shop in town in this thread without realising it was me.
That must have been awkward.
'There was this total wanker, right...'
Just had a nightmare phone call with a dickhead of a client. This has caused me to open an Amstel at 11:30am.
I'm surprised it wasn't that but it turned out he was as nerdy as me but without the commitment.Quote:

We have a ball tearer of an Imperial Stout atm.

Quite a kick, but it's dangerously drinkable in comparison with the %.Quote:

More on the chocolate side but not too strong of either.
Near finished it now. By the end of 2 litres it's fairly raw stuff, don't think I'd go that strong again. The Antwerpen Guinness is spot on at 8.
No more Imperial Stouts and IPAs for a bit. :(
Im going to be fragile for another day or two after forgetting Im 133 years old on Saturday night.
Yesterday’s advent calendar beer was a double chocolate stout. Plus one of the early ones was sticky toffee pudding ale. Not tried either yet.
God bless alkaseltzer
As mentioned in the food thread I was sent a package from Switzerland. It included five beers I’ve never heard of, nevermind tasted:

Unfortunately the one on the far right leaked so I can’t have that one, and I’ve just seen the one in the can described as “piss but piss from Home” by a Swiss person on Untappd :D, but I’m looking forward to trying them nonetheless. Especially the CHOPFAB, as it’s got good reviews.
Quite like a red ale so that one should be good, hopefully.
I've had a couple of Swiss beers. One was bang average and one was pretty decent so on average it's positive so far, I guess. The can looks like it'd be piss before opening it so no surprises there.
I got a nice delivery of free beer yesterday :cool:
Some recruitment agency sent me a bunch of beers too :cool:Quote:

And yes, that's even more so than usual.

Christmas Party tonight and I'm hanging like a bat. All as intended.
Giggles :cool:
I may be too ill for pints now, I think I tipped the balance too far, could be a G&T or cider night.
I've got this tonight:

Fucking love To Ol.
I've never had an imperial stout, but as soon as the word 'sweet' enters the mix I'm thinking this is just a snob's bucky.
Anything good is just a snob's version of something cheaper and nastier, shirley.
Bought some Koko Kanu for £15 today. Really nice, refreshing Christmas drink.
6 pints in and all is well again.
Snob's bucky or not, this is bloody smashing.Quote:

Maybe need some kraken as well to tramp it up to the right abv.
Little Indy beer/whisky shop near me was selling some cheap cherry beer (kriek) so I've grabbed a couple of bottles for a quid each.
Thoughts on fruit beer? I had lindemans in Brussels and thought is was great.
If they're not a sugary mess then fruit beers can be the business.
They're going for a barrel-aged thing with the rum chips so be sure to dip some wood in it. Any you have/can find lying about should do it.Quote:

That’s close enough.Quote:

Can some of you faggots at least acknowledge that there are other fucking alcoholic beverages other than BEER.
I’m going out next Thursday and working Friday but because of who I’m with we’ll end up drinking all kinds. Feel free to make any suggestions for Christmas drinks, that don’t involve gin.Quote:

I can tell you about the cocktails I barely remember drinking last Friday if it'll help you dry your eyes.Quote:
