Summer beers… 20:20 - Jun 20 with 2357 views | hoppy | It’s a nice warm day, you’ve not long got home, enjoying listening to some decent music - you reach for a cool beer from the fridge, and find it going down very pleasingly, (for a 5.5%)… What is it you’ve gone for? Currently making short work of a St Austell Proper Job here. Lovely stuff. Wondering what other recommendations there might be. | |

Summer beers… on 20:23 - Jun 20 with 1641 views | waveneyblue | That's a superb beer, chilled down it's amazing. Just be careful, that 5.5% creeps up on you. Another gorgeous beer (again strong) is Jaipur by Thornbridge. Highly recommended | | | |

True that, both St Austell. They do a great Lager too, called Korev | | | |

Summer beers… on 20:42 - Jun 20 with 1580 views | Dubtractor | I had a couple of nice brews from a Flavourly box set whilst providing the aforementioned decent music.... A Canute Kveik English pale from Firebrand Brewing, and a Haze Faze hazy pale from Beatniks Republic. | |

Korea would be my favourite lager. Proper Job is one of the best ales too, I’d move to St Austell if it wasn’t a s-hole! | | | |

Only because someone from Yarmouth brought it in.... obviously | | | |
Summer beers… on 20:58 - Jun 20 with 1537 views | unbelievablue | I'm cutting down, and so when I want a beer mid-week, I have a Freedam. It's a 0%, gluten free lager from Estrella (blue can, available in Sainsburys). I really like it. | |

Summer beers… on 21:25 - Jun 20 with 1459 views | norfsufblue | Anyone tried the new Guinness coffee beer, I picked up a four pack on an introductory offer and was very impressed and their 0% Guinness is probably the best beer I tried compared to its alcoholic equivalent | | | |

Another one for cider. Not been able to stomach lager for a few years now and although I was enjoying beer, namely Ghost Ship and the odd other, apparently anything I like is bad for triggering gout attacks and nobody wants those. Believe me. Cider it is, and the odd glass of wine. | |

I think cask is 4.5%, bottled is 5.5%. Like Adnams Broadside, it's a different brew in a bottle. | | | |
Summer beers… on 23:03 - Jun 20 with 1270 views | Basuco | Paulaner Munchen Hells or Peroni Gran Riserva (warning, it is 6.6%, very smooth and slips down very nicely). For ale Chadlington brewery Oxford Blonde or Oxford Blue, or Bowman ales Lovely Jubbly. | | | |

Definitely says 5.5% on the bottle. I moved on to a can of ‘Memphis Blud’, a 6.5% grapefruit infused IPA from Aldi, and again, from the fridge. I’m not sure who brews it for them, but it’s quite a nice drop too. [Post edited 20 Jun 2022 23:07]

Summer beers… on 06:33 - Jun 21 with 1137 views | Sikamikanico | Depending on mood... Stour Valley Gold from Nethergate just outside Long Melford Almost anything by Roughacre in Clare Supermarket Ale wise it'll be Proper Job or Ghost Ship. Lager I normally end up with Aldi's Rheinbacher. | | | |

Korev is amazing, there’s only a couple of supermarkets up this way that stock it though. Tribute is also nice, along with Doom Bar…. The Cornish know how to make a decent beer. | |
