It's like bud light iirc, or, really, most big brand American lagers.
So, you know, either tolerable or the worst thing since Hitler, depending on your view point.

With the review “not as good as Bud Light”
Had anything by Whiplash, @Giggles? Just drinking their excellent Scaldy Porter.
My Beer52 box this month is from Korea. Some lovely stuff so far.
Tiny Rebel's birthday collab with Yeastie Boys to make a strong Belgian pomegranate and molasses ale is ace.
As is Brewdog Old World Russian Imperial Stout ( @Queenslander ), like a dark chocolate orange but booze.
Had a bottle of “Efes Draft” tonight. Not the usual Efes, which i like anyway, but it was even better and really really nice.

I've a few bottles of Wicklow Wolf Arcadia. 9 for €27 and it's very nice.
Might be going a beer festival on Friday. Just looking at the ale and foreign beers on offer.
Banoffee Bitter seems like a winner.
Also the whole event is actively encouraging rating all the beers on Untappd, which is something I do all the time anyway, so I won't look like a mug stopping to take a pic of my beer.

Wait, you take a picture of every one? Even I think that's nerdy.
EDIT: Also if you like the dark stuff get yourself in about some Broken Dream by Siren.
I try to but sometimes I forget.

Got some Maltsmiths larger, not bad at all!
So I was at the Australian National tonight and there was this loose carnt losing in the TAB and abusing everyone in sight. So I told me bartender mate so he called a fucking bikie to escort him out... I may have dobbed on some tragic cunt who then got the fucked beaten out of him. I have never felt more of a Queenslander in my life!!!
If you'd posted a picture of a racist kangaroo that post could not have been more Australian.
Starting the sitting-in-the-house-drinking festivities with Fionn by White Hag. A double IPA and it's damn tasty.
Got some imperials waiting for me too.
White Hag.
Are Fionn and White Hag women or drinks or both?
They were giving out bottled Guinness at work today. I think it's making me like Guinness again. EDIT: Nevermind, it's Guinness XX I like.
Another one I had last night was Left Handed Giant "Deeper Water", which must be up there with just about the tastiest stouts I've had at a normal strength. Only 5% or so but it was fucking lovely.
I've had an imperial stout aged in sherry casks by them and it was lovely.
Galway Bay are excellent too, in my experience.
Tried and failed to embed a picture of their outstanding 200 Fathoms imperial stout there. It's brilliant.

Two cracking stouts to end the weekend on. Neon Raptor "Jaffa Cake Milk Stout" and Lervig "Toasted Maple Stout", an imperial.
I've had a couple of imperial stouts by Lervig now and these guys know what they're doing. Great stuff.
Not if it contained the last drop of drink in existence...
Edit: I have major issues trying to post images on here from my.phone, but I'm drinking this and it's ace.

Another beer festival lined up for the weekend, which coincides nicely with the Grand National.
List of beers.
Anyone ever had Oracle? It's the most sessiony session ale ever. Tempted to bookend every pint with it.

Jarl is also very sessionable. Not that it's really weak enough to be a proper session beer but I tried that Pump Up the Jam recently which is there too and rather liked it.
I like the sound of that Gingerbread Milk Stout and the Oatmeal Express.
I'm well into Session Pale Ales recently. I just like drinking a few beers and these days I can't handle those double IPA's with like 8% alcohol in them.
Having a few World Top Against the Grain. Nice and light.
Ireland is 70 today so gluten be damned I'm sitting down to my second pint of Smithwicks after work to celebrate. I forgot how nice it was.
I got a thing from Beer52 that gets me discounts and such in brewery taprooms but somewhat predictably it's not all that much use if you live anywhere other than the South East of England.
What the fuck are you even meant to do with that?

In a bar in Liverpool where you enter through a phonebox and my wife’s cocktail arrived in a shoe ornament.

I'm on the Sierra Nevada.
Sounds like some Eyes Wide Shut shit's about to go down. Abandon ship, Baz.
Yeah Lucky Buddha is pretty shit.
I'm on Brewdog vs. Fierce's "Neighbourhood." Imperial stout with some blackcurrant through it. Pretty swish.
It was the only beer they did in there, unless I wanted Hop House 13 on draught.
Later went to another wanky cocktail place (Alchemist) and told the missus I wanted “a wanky beer, anything but lager” and came back from the bog to the news of them only doing Amstel or Heineken. Obviously she’d halted the order so I could have a look at the cocktails - chose a mocktail but they didn’t have all the ingredients so I ended up with a lime and soda.
Thankfully the gin place we went last had a good list of decent beer and I ended up with a Hawkshead Porter. Was ice cold too. I wish it had blackcurrant in it now though.
