A long time ago, way back in history, when all there was to drink was nothin but cups of tea. Along came a man by the name of Charlie Mops, and he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops.
He must have been an admiral a sultan or a king, and to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us he's filled us up with cheer! Lord bless Charlie Mops, the man who invented beer beer beer, tiddly beer beer beer.
Ahhh beer. Love it. Love cider, love wine as well. Adore a great single malt. But sometimes you just need a really good beer.
Well pumpkin beer for sure is my favourite ever and I think the US has loads of great microbrews, but I love UK beer! (And Irish- a cold pint of Guinness hits the spot so many times!!!)
Campaign for Real Ale pubs will give you such a good sampling of proper beer (IMHO!
)
I regulary imbibe in beers at home from the following places:
Black Isle Brewery - Local, organic, the lady who does the tours knows us (
oops ) and darn tasty. I love their Scotch Ale and their Wheat Beer.
Cairngorm Brewery - Also local and their Black Gold is like drinking a sweetend pint of Guiness - its lovely. I also love the Sheepshagger
Orkney Brewery - Dark Island, Northern Light, and Skull Splitter are all delicious!!
Black Cuillin and Red Cuillin make regular appearances in my home, these are from the
Isle of Skye Brewing Company I'm always up for trying different cask ales and things on tap in the pubs...
Of course, if I'm in Germany, this all goes out the window, because German beer is just lovely and in a league of its own!
A local shop here (
Farm and Household, the best store ever! Who needs Lakeland!) has brew supplies- I wonder if I should give it a bash...
Yay for beer!
