Sticking with the theme, my last "Panela" Colombian Coffee Porter from @thornbridge.bsky.social . I'll miss this as well!
#BskyBeer

I'm on my last Masham Ale from @thornbridge.bsky.social and Theakston. I'll miss it.
#BskyBeer

Nice!

I love STF!

Cheers Keef! Happy Saturday!

I love Harbour, need to do a revisit.

A couple of @thornbridge.bsky.social beauties to round off the evening.
#BskyBeer

The last of my beers from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social , and I can't recommend the brewery enough. Every beer has been top quality, blending innovation with tradition and serving it in a pint bottle.
"Golden Dawn" English Pale is decent up front, closing with playful blackcurrant for the win.
#BskyBeer

Did my first ever Parkrun today. I wasn't particularly aiming for a time, although I hoped to get under 30 minutes. My latent misanthropy made overtaking essential, so I ended up getting faster as I went along. With some effort I think I can take 5 minutes off this.

I'm no expert but I have had it and really enjoyed it. Definitely had a Belgian funkiness to it.

@8sailbrewery.bsky.social Best Bitter tonight. A good bitter finish, rounded off with a bit of maltiness. Another quality traditional beer from the team!

Next up is "Coco Cocoa" coconut chocolate porter from @thornbridge.bsky.social . The coconut dominates, but it's not over-sweet.
#BskyBeer

That's an easier find in my local corner shop- I'll give that a go.

From @thornbridge.bsky.social , "1838" pale. Another Union brew, with the creamy smoothness that I've come to expect (and enjoy). A lovely beer.
#BskyBeer

I'm in agreement all round! Cheers!

I tend to pick up Staropramen, Brooklyn or Kirin Ichiban from Morrisons's. Similar to you, I used to like Tyskie but haven't enjoyed it recently.

Another traditional style and recipe from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social , "Black Widow" dark ruby mild.
#BskyBeer

An old-school "Victorian Porter" deserves an old-school glass. Another great beer from @8sailbrewery.bsky.social , who seem to relish in crafting a range of both traditional and contemporary beers. Roasted coffee flavours dominate, and it's yet another winner from the team at 8 Sail.
#BskyBeer

Gutted! This is really good. I don't go too heavy on the ABVs generally, but can make an exception for a beer like this.

"Ouroboros" double IPA next, from @thornbridge.bsky.social . Weighing in at 8.4%, it's obviously a different beast to my last drink. Tropical and piney, with a thick-cut marmalade finish. Excellent.
#BskyBeer

Direct from Thornbridge. They've been advertising 15% off this beauty recently- you might get lucky!

It's a cracker!

As I've run at the beers so far, I'm having an AF "Green Mountain" from @thornbridge.bsky.social to save me peaking too early. This is such a great beer in its own right, and a wonderful reminder of how far brewers have come on the AF journey.
#BskyBeer

A new one for me from @thornbridge.bsky.social , although I've seen it for a while. "4th Rifles" pale. One of their collabs with a restaurant chain, I guess I'd describe it as a dialled down Jaipur. Would be ideal with spicy food.
#BskyBeer

Kicking off the evening with "Bayern" pilsner from @thornbridge.bsky.social served in a Lukas glass I was sent a while back for being a monthly subscriber.
I'd forgotten how great this beer is!
#BskyBeer

Oof! Sounds bloody great!

😂

I'm using up my annual leave, so took a run along the finishing stretch of the Essex Way. 23k in total: muddy, slow, and all in all a beautiful day for it.

You're really pushing the limits during your period of booze abstinence!
