Kicks off tonight.

 

I've been the last few years, monumental piss up!

 

If you're out that way and like your beers its well worth a drop in.

[Stoney]

Fucking shit balls, We spoke about going to this - totally forgot about it

[dave_min]

Decent.

 

I've no idea where i'll fit this into my weekend plans though.

[Bluto10]

cool adult behaviour berto min

[spamspamspam]

Decent.

If you're going to the game on Saturday it'll be a good place to get a few warmers in before the game. Train from there to Aberdeen and then taxi to Pittodrie is our plan.

[Bluto10]

beer festivals are ace.

as long as its decent beer of course

[spamspamspam]

Stoney puts on a good one bluts, usually runs out of the 50 odd types of beer around 5pm on Saturday.

 

I'd like to go tomorrow night before the choice dwindles but I've got a mates birthday party to play at.

[Bluto10]

is it the 6north folks doing it?

[spamspamspam]

da ken

 

hope not

 

beer and bar is utter pish... Been twice, wont be going again. Warm, watery garbage served in a sterile, white, ikea bench filled horrid environment by part time bar staff that couldnt point you in the direction of the toilet never mind recommend a decent beer that suits the flavours and body you like.

What time do doors open on the Saturday anyway?

[spamspamspam]

1pm until the beer is finished.

 

Its pretty quiet first thing Saturday, usually. Means you can get £40 of tokens and get right round them all in an hour or so.

 

Fuck I'm going to be plastered, again

That bad?

Unfortunately aye. I was hoping for a brew dog alternative but not to be.

 

Would be ok I suppose if you're into your blonde bier but not for people that like darker ales and beer with flavour.

Shame, Was looking forward to giving it a bash.

 

I like the odd pint of Hoegaarden but very much a darker ale man too, have been enjoying Harviestown - Schehallion which is a lovely change.

I've been drinking a lot of sainsburys own Kentish ale the last few weeks.

[dunc_afc]

It is 6degrees sponsoring it. Would have been tempted to nip down before the game but I'm going to a whisky tasting thing in tunnels instead so there is a good chance I will wake up Sunday thinking we won 10-0 whether we did or not.

[dunc_afc]

I've been drinking a lot of sainsburys own Kentish ale the last few weeks. £2.35 a bottle but it's almost a full pint and its affa fine.

 

Darker I usually pick up William Wallace or black sheep from tesco.

You tried the deeside tallorchan?

[Stoney]

Will give it a bash!!!!

Have tried that william wallace stuff before it was lovely. Never used to be much of an ale fan but finding myself creeping closer and closer to the dark side

thats nae really indicative of blonde beers stoner min.

 

some of the finest beers known to man are blonde; dont let colour cloud your judgement.

[360]

I like blonde beer I think.

 

Does Innis & Gunn do one?

[spamspamspam]

You tried the deeside tallorchan?

 

 

I think so, my mate dropped a couple of bottles into me a month or so ago after he visited the brewery.

 

 

I was 17.

 

Still hard as fuck now.

 

Fat cunt.

 

I'd smack you between the eyes and you'd drop like a sack o' spuds.

 

Cool adult behaviour there Roberto

good attitude.

 

pay a little, just a little, attention to the style and youlll be an expert in no time; eventually finding the types you like.

 

there loads of beer styles out there, all with something to offer

 

think local and drink local.

[daytripping]

I never had you down as a boozer bluto mate.

[Bluto10]

its what i do best

[Clydeside_Sheep]

 

Kicks off tonight

 

 

Hope y'all enjoy it. It is a CAMRA event? (I didnt check the link).

 

 

Normally I go to an ale festival down in Troon each year. Its pretty good. You can sit drinking all day, eating Killie Pies and Pakora. (No wonder im such a fat c*nt).

 

 

My recommendations for folk enjoying a tipple:

 

 

-Black Galloway : A simple black porter.

 

 

-Claverhouse Red: A hoppy red ale, named after John Graham of Claverhouse, Viscount Dundee, who was a Jacobite General in the first rising.

[spamspamspam]

Dont think it is Clydesdale, been on the go for a few years this one.

[Geoff_Tipps]

Im heading a long to this tomorrow seen the beer list and it looks pretty special. Cromarty AKA IPA is a cracking beer.

[Mouse]

Took the day off for this tomorrow. Heading to Stoney for mid afternoon, a couple in the Marine then head up. Pittodrie one in May was decent, although bit of a clinical atmosphere. I missed last year's but my friends told me it's good fun

[Mouse]

I'm quite a fan of the William Bro's ales
