Not right now, but earlier it was RCH Old Slug Porter. Very fine, and better than some products of Weston-super-Mare (Jeffrey Archer).

And to impinge on the 'forumite spotting' thread, I was sitting next to andrew_s OTP. But that's quite common.

To impinge on the 'interesting and unusual bikes' thread, there was a stainless steel Moulton with a Rohloff and Gates belt drive in the bike park. Very spendy.  :thumbsup:

G&M Imperial 1991 Speyside Whisky. I really like it. I think I'll have another one. Cheers!

Yes, very tasty. Avoid their Czech lager, though, it's rather a pale imitation of the proper stuff.

I've probably said this before upthread, but their IPA is also exceedingly tasty. They're quite open about who brews them for them, I think this is done by Marstons.

Marstons do the 'Simply' brews for Tesco whose IPA is very similar to Pedigree*, but with added citrusy, late-boil hops for aroma. But I'm not sure who does the Sainsburys house brand, though it'll almost certainly be one of the big boys.

*Aldi selling this for £1.25 a bottle at the moment. Hardly worth the effort of brewing my own at that price!

Sainsburys used to do a fantastic Weisse Bier about five years ago. It had more than a hint of coriander in the after taste. I don't think they do it anymore though.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Thwaites Tavern Porter. The first one I have had for ages, I do enjoy porter as a winter pint!

If like me, you don't like your ale too hoppy, this is quite acceptable.

Right now, the half of a bottle of Fuller's London Pride that mrs Cudzo didn't drink earlier. It's better than I thought it would be. More interestingly, this morning I had a coffee - that makes two coffees in three days and I haven't gone hyper! It's unheard of (for me)!  :o Mind you, the one this morning didn't even taste like coffee, I think it was warm milk with some coffee colouring. They called it 'latte', isn't that meant to be coffee with, um, coffeeness in it?

I'm sure Cudzo's telling the truth.

Breakfast bomb, via aeropress inverted method. I got them to grind it, but I definitely need a grinder.

Aeropress - gateway drug, no doubt.

Well I had a couple glasses of Ogio merlot earlier and was meant to be going to bed but then I saw sloe gin mentioned so now have a glass of that. Not homemade though I'm afraid.
