darrenm Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 There's no better feeling than the deep relaxation from sinking a few Old Speckled Hen lying down on the settee on the evening after getting back from a long, hard run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I maybe might have a medicinal single malt at home but can't drink beer/ale at home. I need to with people and in a social environment. For me tonight, its ribena and a film! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted December 4, 2015 Moderator Share Posted December 4, 2015 Next time I see some, I might try it then snowy. I think they do a blonde one as well, or is that it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted December 4, 2015 Moderator Share Posted December 4, 2015 I don't like Doom bar, Bateman's makes me ill and Hen, I've already mentioned. That Golden Pippin is a good drop, though. My current faves are the Thornbridge ones - Jaipur etc. plus a few american pales - flying dog make gorgeous IPAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Bishop's Finger is a fantastic beer, it's become one of my favourites. Only £1.25 a bottle, too. I tend to have a few bottles of Punk IPA in as well. They're both Vegan beers, too Edited December 4, 2015 by Davkaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted December 4, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 4, 2015 Nice stuff, Mr M. - apart from the Martson's. Can't stand any Marston's. Generally I agree. The Victory Ale is the exception that proves the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
