Looking forward to trying these bottled beers from Dunham Massey brewery, who I havent heard of before. Christmas present from little Miss Idle's boyfriend. He's a good lad.

Top and bottom nice enough. Middle one a Latvian dark lager which was much better than I expected tbh. Maybe a touch on the fizzy side but very smooth and could see yourself getting quite messy without realising it.
Am slowly working my way through these from left to right, in ascending order of strength (still drinking my normal Rebellion delivered beer too).
Really impressed with the first two. As I've got older I've moved to weaker beers to save my next day head, my favourite local session beer being Brakspears Ordinary, Gravity, as it has been rebranded. 3.4% but tastes stronger due to a decent hoppy bitterness.
Wasnt expecting much from a 2.8% beer, but really enjoyed the Northen Monk Striding Edge. Bright, slightly hazy beer, good bitterness, some citrus but not excessive, a really enjoyable beer that also drinks stronger than it is.
Ready for the match. Probably mentioned these guys somewhere but they’re my local Belgian brewery here in Leytonstone. This is my favourite one of theirs, pink peppercorn rye triple, 7.5%. Liquid heaven.
Found out the Northern Monk refecrory is about 5 mins walk away from our company's Leeds office.
Love their beers , been going up there about 3 days a month for 2 years and never knew, then I've discovered it during a bloody lockdown when I'm going nowhere.
Got a Hobson's 12 bottle variety box for my wedding anniversary. This is tonight's tipple, a hoppy red ale, almost a cross between a typical red ale and an East coast IPA with its hoppiness.
Put away three litres of Rebellion's Sin Bin, their February brew, between thursday and yesterday. Very easy drinking 4.2% smooth and dark beer, which was gone before i knew it.
Generally prefer something slightly hoppier, but as a mellow, fireside ale it was spot on.
Gone local tonight. Brewed by the sister of a friend of mine. Wasn't a great beer when she started the brewery tbf but she's got much better over time.

Just a glorious picture. This thread is salivating

...would happily have opened up another straight after finishing this one.
Best beer I've had all year 😉

Since last Saturday I have rediscovered my booze buds..........in a mild way I must/have to add.
Quality over quantity wins with this baby.

Top two, excellent, (particularly the Duchesse), third nothing special, last one I really didn't enjoy at all. Which is unusual for a Siren for me.
As for the Duchesse I reckon it's one of the best sours around. Just the right amount of tartness for me anyway.

I got a bit carried away down at the bottle shop. Particularly looking forward to trying the English Trappist beer in the middle
