Davkaus Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I wasn't going to let a bit of flag shagging ruin a good beer, so I've been trying out Sainsbury's "Coronation Ale". 7% english "special" ale. It's alright. Nothing too exciting, I wouldn't go out of your way to hunt it down, just a good, malty bitter with a bi of weight behind it, goes down far more easily than 7% should do. Not often you can get anything approaching "imperial" from a supermarket that isn't either a horrendously sweet stout or some awful overly-hopped mess of an IPA (looking at you, Brewdog), so it's been a bit of a novelty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robby b Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Nothing. (Boo). Wondering if any of you lot miss the good old days when 21 units was officially the weekly limit as declared by the government's medical officers (like till about 10/15 years ago, I think). I find 14 much more difficult to do. It's quite a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted March 10, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted March 10, 2023 I probably do 14 units in a session DIPA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've still ended up doing 14 or 15 units in a single session several times a year but I really shouldn't, because of a health issue and simply because I'm not young anymore. :s Last night on the old vino was 11, doh! Got carried away. Again. So now starting a mini wagon for two weeks to try and make up for it a bit. Edited March 13, 2023 by robby b 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was quite a stretch since a bottle of wine is about 10 but anyway. and ‘session DIPA’ being a lower ABV ‘DIPA’ of around 7% or a standard 8%er that is just incredibly quaffable.

Hmm, I'm gonna have to try one of those bad boys! I guess a can of 8% beer is about 4 units, depending on the size of the can of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lagunitas IPA has been a very popular IPA around these parts for quite a while and I think also has a national reputation now. Ballast Point beers are also pretty big in California, with Sculpin IPA being the most popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robby b Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) Singani. "It's truly, truly a sin". With ice and fresh lime juice. Salud! Singani is the national liquor of Bolivia, made from grapes, distilled ones I think. It might be some kind of brandy, I can't remember. This particular brand's in a bottle that looks like a grenade. Bizarre. (A strange transparent grenade). The thing at the bottom is a grape. Just ate it. Not your average grape! Better than a worm, like in Mexico?! :s Edited March 17, 2023 by robby b 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
