tongue_tied_danny Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I bought a couple of bottles of this American style IPA from Sainsbury's. It's brewed by Marston's. Pretty nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Ordered a 24 can variety pack from Thistly Cross (with a nifty six can holder bag as well) and will give the Elderflower and Whisky Cask versions a go for the first time this evening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big fan of Thistly Cross, especially the ginger version. Will be interested to hear what the two debutants are like 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Jean King Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Basking in a post curry 2017 Croatian rose brandy out the back. Like liquid alcoholic Turkish delight. Bought from a guys garden shed on Korcula along with some cracking Walnut liqueur. No idea what it was like in 2017 but has matured perfectly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interested to hear what the two debutants are like My mate's wedding was in Dunbar last year and right next door to where they make the stuff so the venue had Thistly Cross on tap instead of Strongbow or Magners. Which was both very good news at the time and made for a far lighter hangover the next day. The elderflower is very good, with a distinct but not overpowering elderflower taste. With a slight carbonation and added ice it would be fantastic on a warm summer's day, which sadly it is not on the Clyde Riviera this evening. Hopefully the Scottish fruit ciders that came in the pack are done just as well. The Whisky Cask claims to be matured in Glen Moray 12 year old whisky barrels. It's got a caramel or brown sugar like flavour without being too sweet and goes down very easily for 6.7%. It's a bit more interesting than the traditional or original varieties but I'm not sure if I prefer it to them or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 A neat glass of Ron Diplomatico Exclusiva Reserva, an aged Venezuelan rum. It's absolutely glorious stuff, like drinking a dark chocolate and coffee cake and IMO far better than most whisky you'd get in that price range. A definite upside of the pubs being shut for so long is being able to upgrade the house stash by just buying the good stuff on Amazon instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Clyde Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 El Dorado 15 year old rum. Quite nice, but at £50 a bottle I'll probably stick to Lambs Navy Rum in future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
