Thread: What are you drinking today?

Japanese craft beer.

A wee sundowner on a Sunday evening.

^ Cheers DW.

Tonight I broke into my Cabinet......



10 Year old Masterson's Rye. Wonderful 90 proof

Looks a nice colour

Hendrix Gin and Tonic

Single malt*

* Talisker but it annoys Cryille if I just call it a single malt.

Tops have got their Nam beers at 19baht a pop, not sure if this is just my local or nationwide but take a look. Favorite out of these is 333, Sai export and then Sai special

The 333 on the right is quite Leoesque if I remember correctly.

You know there is reason why it's 19bht a can...

Saturday afternoon? Time for a G&T.

See...

I won't be doing this again.

139 Baht and only 3.6%. I could have got two 5% Leos for that and still had change for a bag of wasabi peas.

I don't even like the taste... it's way too hoppy for me.

^ Odd, I used to drink Greene King a lot back in the 70's and thought it was more like 5 - 5.5%. Maybe I'm having a "Senior moment" and it was the Abbot's Ale I used to drink but I thought it was IPA.

Bless. So it is.

I happen to like that gin, that bar and even that table.Here’s a couple more pics I found on my phone.

That's really odd Mendy that the IPA has a 3.6% ABV. IPAs in general are 5 to 6 5%.

Also it doesn't look very cold. No sweat on the mug and the head looks like soap.

Drinking a warm IPA is awful tasting.

^ its not even been to India

^^ It was straight from the fridge Stumpy but I wasn't drinking particularly fast. It's warming up fast here and beer doesn't stay cold for long.

A couple of glasses of Mont Clair with my homemade sweet potato fries saved the evening!

I would agree with Saigon's but 333 is a pretty good beeroo and it's 5.3%

Leoesque, possibly, it's definitely drinkable

^ That's good planning mate... or you could just drop in a couple of ice cubes?


I currently have a 15 minute window between 16:45 and 17:00 when the setting sun pokes through the trees to the west of our property and penetrates through to the concrete table in the pond-side sala. Assuming that Yogi isn't relaxing while cooling his bollocks at the west end of said table, the light from the setting sun has a clear path through to my bottle of Leo, illuminating its contents to display an iridescence of beautiful colours ranging from deep brown through to a rich amber.

At least that's my excuse for having an early beer and I'm sticking to it. After all, it is some kind of a holiday this weekend!

I tried a Leo Strong Brew tonight. At 5.1% it doesn't seem that much stronger than the standard 5.0% of a normal Leo but was better than last night's IPA.

its shocking to me that Chang is now weaker than Leo

That just isn't gonna happen ol Mendy. While I know common here with Leo, Chang and Singha, I could never add ice to a nice beer.

Cheers

Freeze your glasses with a cm or 2 of ice in the bottom and not only does it stay cold but you can take bets on when it will float to the top.
