Pembers Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) Not a big beer drinker at home, usually stick to my whisky collection and maybe have a dram every other night and a beer or two on the weekend. I like darker beers and haven't had any in a long time thanks to being stuck at home but treated myself to a few bottles today, nothing too exotic and i'm not sure if they're any good but i'm sure they'll be better than the tins of Fosters sitting in the fridge.

villa4europe Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 did you buy a crate of each brand and then mix them up every weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they're mostly fresh releases every week, placing an order with the local beer shop as they come into stock and collecting every so often. Might not be considered as essential for some, but I beg to differ! It's just go in, pay, take and leave, 1 person in store at a time anyway.

They generally around 10zl ~ £2 per bottle, or double that for the imperial stouts and more again for the barrel aged ones. Well it's become quite a passion, and one that can actually continue if not grow right now, as well as being pretty much the only thing to spend money on apart from food. I will clarify again that I'm not the only one drinking them though! The missus is into it (almost) as much as me, which is brilliant.

It's actually only about £50-60 per week for both of us, not sure why I thought that needed to be justified. Definitely would be spending more in bars and on taxis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) I've got a few ingredients in the fridge that are close to the edge, so I've made myself a little early morning brew- Fresh ginger root Halved clove of garlic Sliver of Habanero pepper Squeeze of lemon juice Teaspoon of turmeric 2 teaspoons honey Half teaspoon of fresh cracked black peppercorn 2 cups boiling water This will be delicious or totally undrinkable...hang on..... Well, I was wrong, it's somewhere in between. The turmeric is really strange on it's own without the other curry spices. The ginger and honey are really nice though. Altogether sort of musky. People say the health benefits of turmeric are activated by cracked black peppercorn. And the other elements are all good for you. Except for the honey maybe. But without the honey, it would be a bit difficult to finish. Edited May 12, 2020 by maqroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
