Entries



Not 1 repeat this time which surprised me, also 5 entries from Polly's and 3 from Tiny Rebel which did not surprise me.
Jesters played by both @MikeTheNative & @Russinating gave them a good boost.
@touch takes the 2 bonus pts with exactly 50 check-ins. If he hadn't joined Untappd, he would have missed out


3 rounds to go!


Next round: X - X-Rated - The label or name must reference something x-rated! (9th Oct)
Note that judging is at the discretion of the me so if the beer is named after a colloquialism I have not heard of, it won't be allowed.

Bonus pts - 2pts for Mo(i)st Check Ins

Thanks for the results.

Still very close up the top.

I think that’s the third time I’ve used that one. I promise I won’t use it again.

Hopefully you did guess…. I’ve dropped enough hints that it would get used multiple times

I didn't as I have a tendancy to guess before looking at the previous entries and completely missed the hints , I went for Brecon Gin.
I have my guess for next week though.

I thought about jester’ing this week but thought 120 check ins wouldn’t be fre enough and I was right.

I just need @weringo to mess up and this is still mine for the taking!

 

[Sonea Fifer]

Here's my entry for this week:





Thinking I'll change my entry for next week - not that it makes much difference to my place on the leaderboard

 

[Ahleckz]

This was mine, I only had a sip but it was decent enough. I bought it for my partner and she enjoyed it (I was on the Arran 10 behind it). Liked the fact it was only 99 calories as well. (Women and their diets eh?)

 

[Martynt74]

Mine was really, very good. An absolute animal really and one i'd definitely be buying again should i see it.




I'm strill struggling for next week, although given i've got last place pretty well cemented it doesn't really matter much (I'm disregarding @Feek and @Lysander in this summary for obvious reasons )

 

[MikeTheNative]

I've got one but I think it's going to be not 'x-rated enough'.

 

[Bickaxe]

I'll show the beer to my independent adjudicator and if she sighs or gives me a look, then its fine.

I think this theme will be ditched next time as its getting harder

It's fine, I'll probably not going to be able to get another in time anyways.
I'm going to Tiny Rebel brewery bar on Saturday but funnily enough they have been told off recently for having a beer too on nose.

 

[weringo]

Bit of a last minute purchase this one. Fortunately my local bottle shop had a can of Polly's

 

[Shadowness]

LOL! Literally read the description of this one and immediately thought "Here come all the Polly's!"

 

[MikeTheNative]

This wasn't great, not that bad either but just didn't have anything going for it.

 

[touch]

By coincidence, we were on holiday in Wales a couple of weeks ago so I managed to pick up some local beers.
Both of them had a low number of check-ins so I thought I'd miss out on the bonus point. This is the beer I entered:

I added my own check in and that brought the number up to around 45/46 then I watched as it went up by 1 or 2 each day and finally reached 50 check ins just in time on Saturday evening!
