Your last Pint?

Also I agree, good thread. I’m currently on the plonk while cooking but will crack open some legit beer later.

Have a good'un all. Currently on some standard Guinness but had some great Christmas ales the other night I forgot to post about. Santa Paws from the Wolf Brewery was the best pun name.

 

Have a few Bavarian beauties in the fridge the in-laws got me but may save them and hit the spirits later. We'll see how the night goes.

I don't normally drink indoors but obviously this year has been different. The recommendations on here have been great and I've tried some real good gear. Thanks lads and enjoy a few tonight

Final beers of the year - Finished early so I could watch Tangled on Disney+ and have an early night.

 

Pressure Drop - Lunar Park (very nice neipa)

Orval (As good as I remembered)

Burning Sky - Shake Some Action (named after the song, I knew it!)

 

Happy new year

Which county boozer has the best selection of Leicestershire beers do we reckon? Not a pub but Bryter moon deli in Silver Arcade has the best selection of local cans I’ve seen, better than The Offie, surprisingly

Careful, you’ve made Big Mo into a form there and some folk don’t like that

Had a box of festive ales bought for me for Xmas. There were 3 bottles of Greene King mild. When I was a kid lots of blokes drank mild, you never see it now. 

 

Not bad actually, bit like porter.

My Dad always goes on about mild, and how the stuff today is not the same as once sold.

If you ever see any on draught, probably only in a working men's club, I'd give it a swerve. It's probably been in the pipes for weeks.

Lol. Me and my mates tried Mild in our teens, circa 1970. We used to say it was the beer from the slop tray under the tap. Done a bit of Googling and it seems you can get Mild beer kits that you brew at home. I think Mild was a lower alcohol beer, quite dark in colour and was quite sweet.

Yeah I seem to remember it was around 3% or something

My dad used to say they tipped the slops in the mild, he also said they emptied the Ash trays into it as well. how they got in a sealed barrel, I don't know.

A few cans from the offie this evening. Very enjoyable both of them

Still pretty popular in the West Midlands iirc - Holden's mild is very easy drinking like most of their other bevs if you're into cask. Bathams do a goodun in all.

Had them before, very nice. I’m off the booze for the next few weeks.

Both king breweries of the Black Country. Batham’s Best Bitter is a nectar

Big fan of both mate - Golden Glow by Holden's is like drinking squash, only made the pilgrimage to the Great Western at the start of March just before things got serious, what a place.

 

Had Batham's Best at their boozer in Hagley, ridiculous stuff like you said, almost sweet, so easy to get down you.

 

I know the Ale Wagon in town gets both on fairly regularly but they don't last long.
