Bottle at home. Probably a mistake but it seemed like a good idea at the time. Good pour with a huge nose of yeast. And a huge taste of it too! Ok.

Can at home when I was supposed to be having a dry night. But it turned out the neighbours were coming round so this became the first stage of the wheels well and truly coming off. Good pour and tasty. But, it tastes like a good imitation of a best bitter.

Can at home. Nice light summer beer. It won't set the world on fire, but perfectly pleasant.

Bottle in a random wine bar in Oxford. Long story but as I was driving it had to be AF. The first bottle was OK as a pilsner on a hot day, but the second made my mouth go funny.

Can at home - I think from Tesco. Anyway, probably a bit early for a beer like this, but oh well. Long day, dry day yesterday so it was allowed. Anyway, everything you would expect from an English DIPA. Real length to some well balanced hops.

Bottle at home from the brewery. A great example of a classic English bitter. Very well balanced beer with malt and bitter hops in harmony.

Bottle at home from.... somewhere! Look, thereโs really not much to this beer. No real taste of texture and i can't really say much more.

Can at home from M&S in St Evenage. Just come from PC world with middle daughter where we agreed on her laptop for 6th form. With the amount I spent this was needed to take the edge off. And I bought them mini Colins. Anyway, as ever I digress. Two of my favourite breweries meant this was a must have. Good pour with a great head, but it disappeared quickly. Great immediate nose of rich malt. The taste and mouthfeel are all great, especially for a low abv. It's surprisingly rich and I couldn't do many of these, but it is good.

Bottle from a random Waitrose on the south coast. Opened while roasting a chicken to feed the family. I haven't done a proper roast for a while, what with it being summer and all that, so it was time..... Doing sausages too. Anyway, the beer is meh, with a side order of a sour taste which I really don't think should be present. But what do I know! Anyway, don't bother with this.
