    Look at the quality. It could only happen to such an outwardly flash cunt.

    He was with his missus and said do you fancy some so I said okay then It's not something I actively try and do.

    ANYWAY THE DRINK WAS NICE.

    Did you neck it out the bottle or does your pocket watch have a receptacle function?

    No, but it would never happen to me...or Igor, for example. Or Foe.

    A lad offered me lucozade on the train once. He was drinking large bottles of it as he said the sugar was good for his brain injury.

    To be, Magic, anybody sat next to you on a train would probably be too busy trying to think of the most polite way to ask you to stop touching yourself.

    Tesco had a Hop House 13 lager on deal today so picked up a case of that. From Dublin, any good @Giggles?

    That was Guinness' attempt at getting in on the whole craft revolution here. It's not bad, more like a session type, though it doesn't so that well as it's a bit strong for the Carlsberg/Heineken crew and the proper beardos won't touch it because it's 'macro'. I've got a few for around Christmas myself.

    I found that Hop House stuff tasted a bit chemically, but that might just have been the shit pipes at the place I drank it.

    I have also been a bit unimpressed by Meantime's London Stout.

    Meant to say that too, it's in nearly every pub around here now but I've rarely had a nice pint. Bottles are far nicer, near tastes like a completely different drink.

    I had an 8 year old whisky before and it was like drinking caustic soda that an elderly moose had pissed in.

    Yeah normally I wouldn't recommend it but the maple disguises any crap in the whiskey. I've got a special reserve from tesco to have a drink of as well, quite liked the Aldi one recently as well.

    If it's the same one I tasted from Aldi recently then it was very nice. I wouldn't know whiskey that well (only really like Jameson) but it was enjoyable.

    That's really nice actually.

    Aldis booze is great. Picked up a bottle of bourbon from there yesterday and their Baron St Jean red wine is ridiculously good for the price.

    I'm currently sampling this Abelour 10 (as recommended). 50/50 mix with water. It's alright. I can't tell if I'm really enjoying it. I think perhaps I just don't really get on with whisky.

    The O'Sheas range of beers is really nice. Fond of the stout.

    Imperial Stouts are pretty common where I buy booze. Can't drink more than two at time though.

    The Kiwis brew them that will have you seeing double!

    It's when you get an imperial stout that hides it's strength well that you're in serious trouble.

    Sierra Nevada Narwhal. That's a serious imperial

    Hard as fuck to get though.

    EDIT: And seemingly gone expensive as fuck. I didn't even pay half that last time.

    I've had a couple recently that became instant favourites and were imperial stouts.Alesmith's Speedway Stout - Vietnamese Coffee and a pint can by Evil Twin called Even More Jesus. Both were fucking heavenly.

    Oh my word, they sell Wookey Jack. Thought you could only get that in USA. I loved that beer when in California. Been looking for it everywhere with no luck.

    Nice one Gigs.

    @John @Ian either of you been to Shilling Brewing on West George Street? Been in a few times, really good selection and the pizzas are quite decent. Bit soulless inside but a marked improvement on what it used to be (Frankensteins)

    I haven't. I was in Frankenstein's once though and at some point late in the night a mechanical Frankenstein's Monster was lowered from the ceiling while Monster Mash played and the lights went haywire. It would have seemed camp at a child's birthday party, never mind a huge bar in a prime location.

    I had a solitary pint in Shilling recently. Seemed nice. Want to go back for pizza and beer one night.

    Came into Brewdog to buy beery Christmas presents and try a few beers while I'm here. Had a third of a 10.8% IPA by Stone which is pretty much exactly what you'd expect and I like very much.

    Just trying a 16.5% porter (another third) and fucking hell you could do yourself some real damage. I've had beers of half the strength which taste harsher.

    I had a meat plate thing in whichever pub it was Smoak used to do the kitchen for and it was unbelievably good. Brisket, ribs, burnt ends, all the standard stuff. It was about fourteen quid I think, and I could hardly move at the end of it.
