Beers of the World - Mk 5 *** RULES AND SIGNUP HERE ***
Soldato
Yeah, i am. I thought you were in a pub which had a suitable entry?
Yea I got drunk and didn’t buy one, figuring I’ll be able to get one from my usual places. They’ve now sold out!
I thought Q was pretty easy if you know what to look for....
Soldato
Q wasn't easy for me, I could only find 1 option. Visited the brewery to pick one up during a massive cycle yesterday.
Any tips for opening the bottle without explosions when it's been rattling about on my bike all day?

Open it upside down or under water.
I have one idea but can’t find a good picture of the back of the beer online, and the shop is inconvenient as hell.
Am I missing something obvious?… There are a handful of craft beers with Queen in the name but none are for sale in Glasgow!

Does it help if you read the description of this round again carefully?
Nope! Can’t think of any with a Queen image on the label.
Also, I was hoping it would be OK to have the word Queen anywhere on the label but looks like that’s not allowed either. @Bickaxe , can you confirm if it says Queen anywhere on the label it’ll be allowed?
bah!
Soldato
To be honest, i'm struggling to think of one with a picture of the queen on too.
Seems there's an obvious one though so looking forward to seeing which it is
I’ve found a pub serving 1 beer with King in the name, and another beer with Duchess in the name. But no Queen!
I’ve been in touch with a brewery who have given me a list of pubs in Edinburgh that have casks of a beer that works… What’s the farthest someone has travelled so far for a beer?
Commissario
My Q entry is in and there's no denying it's a thing of beauty.
Beer name only.
I'm only saying it's easy as I had about 5 options at the time.
This might be another of those rounds where it seems easier than it actually is.
Maybe images of the Queen are banned in Scotland?
Bah, think I’ll have to have a miss this week.
Soldato
Unusually, I had several options I could have used for my Q entry.
I am pretty confident there will be no duplicate for me this week and I am hopeful I have the strongest

I fully agree
Results delayed this week as we have friends over.
Will sort it tomorrow afternoon.
And as I know you are all wondering, Feek scored 0pts.

I don't have any red gin
I have quite a few Scottish gins though. Let's see how things go
Soldato
Pink is just a shade of red isn't it?
