Havana blanco. Socialism, eff yeah!
I nearly bought a can of Cameron's Jurassic IPA but I realized my wife was waiting in the car, and adding alcohol to my purchase might mean I'd need to get into a longer lineup.
Our virtual pub has been serving Hobgoblin from Wychwood, but this batch of tinnies taste a bit dull and lifeless.
Other offerings from our Virtual Pub are...
- Fuller's London Pride (good goto British plonk)
- Oast "The Barn Raiser" Country Ale
- Jever's Pilsener
- Beau's Lug Tread (I find it better in containers than on draught, actually)
- Innis&Gunn Original (a staple during the peak of the real pub, a few years before they used COVID-19 as a convenient time to end the money-losing operation)
(To forestall questions; I must purchase and bring home the "offerings" for my instance of the "Virtual Pub")
What the funk?

A pull tab on a bottle? Didn't see that coming. :lol:
Last Friday the Pub decided to offer an award-winning American Beer.
I was surprised. I thought English beer had a reputation for being flat...
I splurged on a recent beer run and bought a bottle of Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout. Holy moley, it's a thick, hearty stout, as it should be. Tasty, but at nearly 15% alcohol, it needs to be nursed. It burned my throat on the first swig. :lol:
To celebrate a recent political occasion, my wife decided we should finally open the champagne I bought for last New Year's, but which we never drank.
Wait, it wasn't champagne, it was...
Walkerville Russian Imperial Stout
My wife found it a little too bitter with a nasty aftertaste, but I found it very nice. It had an interesting complexity, with a sort of not overly-sweet sweet flavour, and while not lively, it didn't seem quite as flat as some renditions of Russian Imperial Stout.
:lol::up:
Oooh, that looks really good and the bottle reminds me of a local favorite, Pugachev's Cobra.
To celebrate me being gainfully employed again, we got a bottle of Cuervo's Reserva de la Familia and Don Julio's 1942.
I think Cuervo takes it, but it's weird how fancy bottles of hooch get when you spend too much on them.
Can I say Im still on gin. Wild Brumby!
With a few ciders tossed in along the way.
