Generic tea

Much beer.

Tried a new one tonight, Innis & Gunn American Oak Pale Ale. Interesting, its aged in oak bourbon barrels - can't really taste the oak, but the vanilla bourbon flavours are pretty noticeable. Not bad. :beer:

It is an odd one, isn't it? I wasn't sure what to think, tbh. In the end, I decided it wasn't for me--I didn't want to spend the time drinking it wondering if I liked it or not. :P

Yeah - it wasn't bad but not one I'd bother buying again - even cheap from B&M which is where I got that one. Too perfumey.

Have you tried the Twisted Thistle IPA? I discovered it at a pub a while back. I like it.

Yeah, haven't had twisted thistle in a while as it hasn't been in the local bottle shops. Nice brew.

Currently having a few Leffe Bruins :beergrin:

Had a treat last night - stumbled across some Thornbridge beers on the way home from my dad's yesterday and bought myself a Chiron (APA), Kipling (pale ale with New Zealand hops), and Jaipur (their flagship IPA). All very good. the Chiron went down well with a chicken jalfrezi.  :zoinks:

Feckin water now  ::)

Have a new favourite among brews: Tribute. Had it at a pub the other day.
