Seat68 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 This thread being resurrected makes me feel happy. Normality has returned. For the record a nice bottle of Hardy's crest red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarely ever go without a couple in the cupboard. Probably my favourite brewery. Helps that their bar isn't far from my work so have had a few scoops in there after the office... on the odd occasion I do make it in there! Longhorn, Mad Goose, Lawless and Bunny Hop - all lovely!

I love the Mad Goose, and I quite like the Longhorn, not too fussed about the others. But if you like most of their products, it's worth using the code from the Villa View podcast because I think there's a discount, can't remember if it's 10 or 20% off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted February 24, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 24, 2022 I'm drinking a Chardonnay currently. Not had a bottle in years. Won't have another for years either, almost like a dessert wine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 What about our very own beer made by purity? Can't say it's as nice as mad goose, but the looks make up for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some hero on here gave away a code for a free keg last year (just had to pay p&p) so I'd guess more than a few of us sampled it Its alright, I'm assuming they sell it in parts of the ground, I'd take it over the usual stadium beers any day of the week 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found out today I won one of these Have had it before (the free keg + postage mentioned earlier) as well as the ground, it's not a beer I would choose unless the choice is limited, but it's an ok ale. Especially for free 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted February 25, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 25, 2022 couple of whisky samplers for myself blair athol 14y which isn't worth the big price jump from the 12 year (which is bloody gorgeous) hence i'll stick with the 12 year tamdhu 15 year which was lush. not worth the £80 price tag mind but managed to grab a bottle on sale for £60 got a sampler of glendronach 18 year which i'm saving. kinda hope i don't love it as it's hard to come by currently and over £100 a bottle now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks tasty Yep I realised after tasting the rum on its own before making this that a lot of the flavour from the cocktails we’d been drinking on holiday was from the rum itself.

That said, the 15 is stunning as well (I actually prefer it) and is much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
