Finished my degree on Monday so my brother brought me this back from the states for me.

Looks familiar, there's some lad on Twitter mouthing about it...

LordEoin

had a long day at work and decided to splash on a fancy beer.
Cobra king caught my eye , flashing awards and promises of a 'superbly smooth, double fermented superior beer'
tastes like rice crispies and smells like cornflakes. pale and clear. a head like piss-foam in a toilet bowl (doesn't last as long though). 7.5% abv with a strange sweet country wine fruitiness to it.
At €6.99 for a 750ml bottle I won't be buying another. ever.

Thornbridge Black Raven tonight for me. Had to stop the other liffey brewers from drinking it all by drinking it all myself,fookers did not even ask for it to be stocked😈

Is double fermented like double hopped? - everything's better if you double it.

Going to give these lads a lash tonight



I tried the common recently - not sure what I was expecting (never had that style of beer before) but it was basically just lager.

Actually I tell a lie - I've have had WW's Kentucky Common, which is completely different but was also a bit disappointing.

A friend brought back a pack of four big bottles from San Fran and gave me two! I also had their porter, very nice!

Down in the big smoke for the weekend and went to devenneys rathmines for the first time. Great offie but dangerous cus only half the beers have prices marked!  :)

Had a can of beavertown smoked porter. Lightly smoked but delicious.

Opened a bottle of St. Mel's spring bock. Really dissapointed - weird TCP taste. Maybe just an off bottle.

Next up: Schneider weisse tap 5!

Qs

Having my Janet's Brown. Still too young but it'd want to improve if I'm going to enter it into the GCB American Ale comp.

Of foam and fury. First time trying this and not disappointed.

Bubbles

Saison Dupont for a kickoff this evening, followed by some lovely Via Maris..
