I'm huggy whether I've had beer or not.

On to the second brew.

Timothy Taylor's Landlord Strong Pale Ale.

"Landlord is the classic pale ale, brewed in the traditional way from the famous Knowle Spring water using only the finest malt and leaf hops."

I generally like pale ales - Light and Bitter is a drink I ask for quite a lot and this looks like a pale. Only 4.1% it pours cleanly with a large head, perhaps a bit to large.

It's quite mild in flavour which is to be expected but it's not unpleasant. It has a fruity tang to it which I wasn't expecting, and there's a nice aftertaste as well. It's quite complex for a pale ale.

All in all, another good beer. I'd be happy being served this in a pub.

Why did I open this thread?

I'm offshore, working nightshift and have absolutely no access to ale for the next week at least

I am, quite literally, drooling now

The only one I have tried of the selection is the Caledonian - quite nice.

Enjoy the rest

Well, this is the second beer thread I have read - and they are damned good.

The only problem I have with these threads, is I want to drink BADLY.....
So......
I'm going to join you in a drink...
Really shouldn't....
but...

Ah ha...Jack Daniels or Guiness...mmm, I need to have a clear head tomorrow, so Jack it is.

Cheers Feek.

Im on the Old Empire and Double Drop tonight!

A.N.Other · 2 Dec 2005 at 20:33

Morrisons do Bombadier - the finest beer about. You (and everybody else) should sample this stuff!

Lol the blurring is because I've alreadly had some of these this evening and couldn't hold the camera steady on zoom.

lukechad · 2 Dec 2005 at 20:37

Nice choices there feek, ive just finished my first week on a new department and I deal with loads of these ales on a daily basis now. I quite like the look of the double drop and the Marstons Single Malt. I think Fursty Ferret and Bishops Finger have to be my winner for such awesome names

Enjoy them

A.N.Other, I hate that stuff, it flies off the shelf and is a real nightmare!

Feek · 2 Dec 2005 at 20:37

I think I did Bombadier a few weeks ago, but I can't remember much about it. In fact, I can't remember anything about it!

Got the Pork Scratchings in to!

Morlan · 2 Dec 2005 at 20:43

I guess I'll be joining you this evening on a few brews at home.

I'll be drinking 6 of the finest cheap stuff: €1.16 a can.

Brewed in Holland, only for sale in Ireland!

Morlan · 2 Dec 2005 at 20:46

It's got to be said. My FAVORITE beer ever.

Sex in a glass.. mmmmmmmm. And you don't get a hangover in the morning. Doesn't come cheap though

Dont diss the pork rinds!

Feek · 2 Dec 2005 at 21:08

And now to the Adnams SSB - Suffolk Strong Bitter.

"Adnams SSB is a refreshing beer of real flavour - distinctively hoppy and dry"

I like short descriptions. It's less to type.

A 4.5% brew, darker than the previous pale ale. Again, a heady beer upon pouring. No noticable aroma and the brief description on the back is accurate in that its's nicely hoppy and dry. No tangy aftertaste, just another good brew.

Looks like this weeks selection is much better than the rubbish the co-op had to offer last time.

Vix. The Centraal Bar beside the Pear Tree. What a fine selection of beers they have! I spent many a night in there beer tasting. I believe they stock 80 different beers behind the bar. The food is pretty damn good too.
