I see Heineken are buying a share of Beavertown.

One just launched here in Ireland at the weekend. Hoping to get my hands on it during the week.

I can’t think of anything more beige than “King of Hummus”. What next? “The Emperor of Unseasoned Boiled Potatoes”.

“And don’t forget, in lieu of tips, make sure you leave plenty of religious pamphlets...”

A couple of years ago I did a vertical tasting of Fullers Vintage- every year going back to 2007. 5 years appeared to be the sweet spot. Anything older had just degraded (rather rapidly).

3rd option- why are you using a straw at all? You’re not in kindergarten...

Kinda the same as hot-stone steak places.

The problem of “the chef has already properly seasoned the dish” is that season is only to the chef’s taste. If they were any decent chef they would understand that every human being’s palate is different. This also explains why sometimes the dishes are too salty- the chef’s palate is not good at detecting salt…

Do you not have beer mats?

My mother was a terrible cook, which is why I and my sister were the ones who ended up cooking every meal.

It’s “corkage” and it doesn’t refer to the fact that they have to remove the cork from the bottle.

Unfortunately, after seeing all the film adaptations of his work (Watchmen, V For Vendetta, From Hell, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) I’d have to say that Alan Moore is right.

I wouldn’t say overrated, but nowhere near as good as V For Vendetta or Marvelman.

That seems quite gammonesque...

Very well, thank you for asking.

I spent the weekend judging homebrew at the Fourpure Brewery - so after the judging was complete, time to hit the taproom. And I have to say, drinking Juicebox from the source was incredible, but the canned version is almost as good.

omplete and utter non claim to fame- a friend of mine was the last winner of the Great Irish Bake Off...

The potassium in tomato juice also helps with jet lag...

The plastics start to leach into the water.

No love for Phantom 2040?
