    Well because I've started driving to most matches, matchday drinks are post-match for me.

    Currently I'm sampling a nice pale ale from Dig Brew (Digbeth, Birmingham) called Die Bjorn Die 5.2%.

    This will be followed by a couple of St Austell (Cornwall) Proper Job IPAs 5.5%.

    Been trying out some more of the province's craft breweries. This one's from Kitchener -- no wonder that they do a Helles, then!

    [​IMG]
    They also have a nice session (golden) ale, and several other styles I've yet to try. If we are going to make a habit of yesterday, one will need them all!

    The absolute king of bottled beer. And not far off the top in draught either, just edged by Boltmeker.

    At a provincial town in South Estonia today. Most exotic offering from the shop was this. 99 cents a can.

    @TallinnBantam@TallinnBantam will be appalled but when I am in Corinth, I tend to drink Fix on the beach and the tavernas. Mythos is not too good.
    As for today’s game, nothing, not even my morning coffee (can’t remember the last time I didn’t have coffee on a morning). Actually had to leave at 6 to take the high school cross country team to an early morning 5k run so I missed the whole game. Well chuffed when I saw the score. Oh, and a couple of very good times from my runners.

    On the darker stuff, as it’s getting down to 5c now the nights are drawing in.

    Had a (small) Wellington Helles with the dinner burger; and shall try the (larger) Newark Helles again in another half-hour or so at supper. I e-mailed Newark about their cloudy Helles, and it is indeed a deliberate stylistic choice. They only lightly filter the beer, leaving some of the yeast in. But the 12-pack I've got was from just before they started the filtering, so I have the full cloudy works! Must remember to pour gently, and keep the tins upright for a while before opening. Something different at any rate, as I've simply never come across a Helles yet that wasn't bright and clear.

    If you have any spare casks you don't know what to do with, I'll be glad to take them off your hands...

    Paulaner Munich Hell tonight for me.

    No game yesterday but still managed to get into the Record Bar early evening for a couple of pints of Bingley Brewery's Moo Moo Porter.
    Soon be sitting down for my Sunday Roast Beef. Think I'll be washing it down with a bottle of Saltaire Blonde.

    Nice to be able to celebrate a victory, rather than have to drown one's sorrows! Time for some:

    I'm on the Strongbow Cider. That's not changed for over 40 years!
