The Org Bar, Pull up a chair and share. What're you drinking?

[Bibio]

been doing a lot of drinking lately.


nookiebroon.. i have not drank this in years but got a few bottles and let them get very cold in the fridge (only way to drink it) and have noticed that its not the same and to me it tastes watered down. this used to be like many other bikers, drink of the day. i have very fond memories of sitting in the peartree pub (a regular haunt) in edinburgh drinking this stuff all day as a youth.



my new indulgence is Innis and Gunn lager and i must say for a new micro its bloody good.

Aye it’s not what it used to be. Made nowhere near Newcastle nowadays. Some big firm bought the brand. Like a lot of things, it’s just a name that used to mean something. Sad.

Get yourself onto www.sixdnorth.co.uk 20% discount with 6DN20 at checkout. Making some cracking beers in Aberdeenshire. The Peleton Pilsner is so easy drinking it jumps out the fridge and pours itself doon yer throat.

Holy thread resurrection.
As you may know I struggle with drinking, but tonight I'm having a 1:4 Glenfiddich Experimental Series #02 and water. A rare treat.

Glen Ord ... just THE best scotch EVER.

This Christmas I've been enjoying Macallan 18yo, Mortlach 16yo and Ardbeg Coryvreken. Each sublime in their own way. Unfortunately I finished the Springbank for my birthday in November.

i dont know how people can drink that vile gut rot they call whisky. especially that disgusting stuff called laphroaig, its as vile tasting as parsons nose.


Innis & Gunn Lager (green and gold) its not bad.

So, who were you in the Famous Five?

... and how's Timmy?

[Bibio]

i do love a crabbies now and again, great with roast chicken.

i dont particularly like english ales due to the use of lots of bittering hops (covering up bad brewing) but i have gotten a taste for Doom Bar by Sharpes lately. for an english ale its bloody good and more like a scottish 70d/special.
