Great night out with my best mate Sakis, he became a fancy director, so doesn’t have much time for plebs like me any more 😋 Made up for lost time though, a little drunk, always amazes me how I cycle home 😬 And apologies to the other diners, we were very noisy and irreverent 😂 #BskyBeer

A few beers at home for a change - the Lupulus was for the missus (along with a 500ml Kasteel Rouge) - “cryo pop”, I was expecting something fruitier, but some distinct aniseed notes The new Chimay, nothing special, reminded me of Duvel 666. The Bertinchamps is new too, too much %ABV #BskyBeer

A new Val Dieu, a bit like their blonde with a squeeze of lime juice… Next up Brussels DIPA challenge, which is best? Well they’re surprisingly similar despite the surgeries look. The Double Delta leans on caramel, malty notes, where as the Senne is a little sharper and a touch sour #bskybeer

Graspop Metal Meeting with my kid, they grow up fast folks. 34C, 4 days, hard for an old man, but lots of great music, beer, crappy festival food and the metal crowd are great!

Peeps, there’s a new Duvel, had no idea what I was when I bought it, was worried it might be “peach infused” or something dreadful Turns out it has some extra fancy hop added, but yikes, it’s nasty, bitter as feck - “citrus” they say, more like grapefruit oil, yeurgh!! #BskyBeer
