My issue with pumpkin beers is they're never spicy enough. They need to taste like a festivity in a bottle. The Van Hunks has a slight plastic taste to it that I can't describe any other way. Not a huge fan of the Jan Pampoen either.

Just had a Brewdog PunkIPA.

Still not sure if I enjoyed it or not. Very fruity.

Oh and don't forget Honingklip

Will be hitting that one

Don't like their beer. Especially when it's not ice cold out of the tap.

Yeah, I'm not crazy about Honingklip either.

Hmmm is that a stout I see over there. Don't think they had that when I was there. I did enjoy nibbling on the roasted malty grain pieces tho.

They've always had a stout.

Honey Dew is good, had that in London a few weeks back, and 1st Light is another good one.

Heh yeah that Stellenbrau Lager expiry date was Dec 2015 but was still good and not too bad a lager. I'm not too excited about the Weiss and the Robsons, but will probably try them tonight. Devils Peak always good and so is Brewdog, and that Honey Dew is looking like a good choice ice cold out the freezer later today with this warm weather.

Anything in your fridge for today?

Yeah stout. I'm a stout person. Not a very present stout though.

Time for something festive.

Anyone use www.leagueofbeers.com? Looking at getting an And Union gift set, need the glasses

So the Robsons East Coast Pale Ale is nothing to write Santa about - not something I'd bother with again.

The Fullers Honey Dew is nice - can't really fault it for anything but probably won't buy it again. Just because there's too much local beer I'd rather buy regularly. Although those Innus & Gunn went down really well with guests over the holidays and I reckon they'll be the only imported beer I occasionally buy the year ahead.

So much nope

Was it bad? I remember it being quite light and drinkable. Might be drunk/confused.

I wouldn't even give it to a girl it was that bland
