Only because Het Uiltje’s Old Enough to Drink a 21% bock became infected and had to be drain poured. Disappointed it wasn’t in the order. Now with Borefts in Sept cancelled I won’t get any of de Molen’s 25.1% Bommen & Granaten double Ijsbock either. Maybe BrewDog will bring back Sink the Bismarck. That was 41% and the second strongest I’ve ever had. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewC Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Just in case you all thought I was a total looney. Something from the other end of the scale. These guys do sub 3% beers that taste just as good as many stronger ones. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny777 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I managed to get this delivered from an online order. https://www.cideronline.com/online-shop/cider/draught-ciders/20-litre-bag-in-a-box/_product/62/20-litre-bag-in-a-box-ross-oak-cask-cider/ An acquired taste, possibly, but this might be due to the whisky barrel maturation (is that a word?). 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just picked up a couple while shopping and just opened the first. Very nice.

Back in the early 70s/80s in the era of Merrymaker trips, we went on an excursion to the KWVR. But we first went to a pub overlooking the railway that served the whole range of Taylor beers (only a few of their pubs did all of the range). We settled for watching the trains from the pub. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
