Superflygal is out for the evening, the little man is asleep, it must be beer o'clock!
First on the menu is Goose Island 312 (urban wheat beer!)it's not great.n fact slightly disappointed after their excellent Honkers Ale. lacking in taste and body. ho-hum a few more to sample this evening.
Had a right good pint of Cornish Knocker last night
knew i shouldn't have written that. just spent the last hour getting him back to sleep!
oh well, number 2 makes up for it. a contender to knock 5am Saint off it's perch:w00t:
Snake Dog from Flying Dog Brewery. not as fully flavoured as 5am, but still very hoppy and weighs in at 7.1% Very good indeed. worth seeking out if you like 5am.
