Beer

[machin05]

Just had confirmation that this has arrived for me, safe and sound back at the homestead - https://beerbods.co.uk/shop/the-great-heck-brewery-box/

Today is a good day (apart from work being shit and the inevitable stress of lot of urine on the floor and sofa again this evening...)

Struggling to cope with the Beerbods selection?

 

[machin05]

Yeah, I'm not a good drunk.

Looking forward to the Sunshine. Finding myself craving last weeks Yakima IPA though, having a BBQ tonight and it would be the perfect beer to enjoy in the garden with the sun going down. Very jealous of your Great Heck brewery box.

There's still one box available....

Pub lunch:

~ Ale House Rock - 6.2% American PA. On tap, rather than a bottle, very enjoyable.
~ O4 Colombo - 4.0% pale golden, very hoppy (so not the best choice tbh).

Back in the Wordsley this weekend; here's hoping I find the time for my first Batham's Mild in almost two years!!!

Try the Red Lion just off the Brettell Lane - it's very nice in there.

Sweet Lord, save me from temptation....

Oooft. Smells amazing.

Very, very nice beer. This beerbods thing is a revelation!

Can't wait 'til they start shipping international (probably at a hefty price hike, but surely worth it for the UK beers that otherwise wouldn't make it here).

It's another beauty, ay it. It's getting nicer with every sip!

Powerful bitterness, superbly balanced with sweetness and a touch of sour grapefruit.

Have you emailed them?

 

[Alan]

Have you emailed them?

Nah, it said somewhere on the site that they were working on international memberships tho so I left it alone.

I don't know why but I wasn't expecting much from this one, maybe because the label is so naff, but it's a stunner.

UK + BBQ = ???

Barbecue.

Have you noticed that the label reads the same upside down?

 

[Alan]

Hah, well yes, I just didn't think y'all did BBQs.

Yeah, good thing it's not bottle conditioned, would've ruined my Thursday. :icon_lol:

I dunno, maybe it's the colour of it, just looks a bit rubbish.

It's very rarely nice enough for a BBQ up here. Perfect today though, not a cloud in the sky and just windy enough to keep away the midges.
