Can of red bull to help me get through my 3rd 11 hour in a row.

 

[Kanifee]

diet coke but could just drink a lovely glass of red wine! also Kanifee the ruby red is very nice from kit the shop bought bottles are smoother though!!

maybe smoothness will come with conditioning, how long has it been in the bottle?

 

[Kanifee]

What a splendid drink, fruity piney aroma gushing out as soon as the crown seel was broken, smooth citrus flavour, grapefruity lemon zest flavours with a mellow and buetifully contrasting bitterness, I'm falling in love with these American ipa/pale ale. Just splendid.


Role on the weekend!

Need to update my glass selection to fit my drinking, need to banish all my laser etched glasses, they destroy the carbonation in these more refined ales.

[Kanifee]

In all seriousness though its a phenominal ale, this has jumped right in as one of my all time favourites.

 

[DirtyJester]

[Kanifee]

Not much choice in the matter I'm afraid, picking the folks up from the Airport and then the other half from work later tonight.

Carlsberg Export, which now appears to be 4.8%

 

[Kanifee]

As do all the big name lagers for the most part, keeping the prices down avoiding a higher tax band incurred by a 5% brew apparently.

Brooklyn lager, malty with peppery spice and an ever so slight appearance of hops. Very tasty lager indeed. 7.5/10

Watermelon wine. Home brew from a massive watermelon. It was pretty mad tasting but it's suddenly starting to mellow.

 

[PapaLazaru]

V&T. Slimline.

 

[Kanifee]

Innis and gunn blonde, fantastic ale with strong pepper notes and a cutting bitterness that is smoothed with a unique smoothness from the aging innis and gunn have given to this unique ale, the aroma is buetifull.

 

[Kanifee]

chimay, wow the aroma really doesn't prepare you for the assault on the taste buds, harsh biscuit and malty tones, adding in the yeast changes the flavor and melows the bite a little, enough to make it a different beast, slight alcahol warming on the gut but not un pleasant.


8/10
