Too soon to bust this one out again?

I was going to give this one a go as a first try on the grainfather as it’s relatively inexpensive if I fuck it up.

But does he say 'Heil Heinrich' every time he sees him in a race?

Thanks. Can’t believe I didn’t check on there

Where’s the live stream for this? Nothing on the UCI YouTube page

Made in the week. Such a great dish

Hopefully that’ll work for you. I’ve found cheap capture cards a bit hit and miss in the past

Camera Live & Cam Twist?

Yes thanks @Chopsicle. I’m no.10 on the list but my request for a medium in olive got lost at some point. I’ll reply with that to your DM when it comes through though. Ta

Best of luck! Deya stout is great. Neither maple or pecan jump out as obvious flavours when you taste it but it’s got a nice sweet/nutty/roasty vibe which is spot on in my opinion

Went to the shop and glad I did

Nearly grabbed a can last week but went for a couple pales from them that I hadn’t seen before. I’ve heard good things though

Got a can of haze in the fridge for this afternoon, it’s one of my favourites of their output too. I’m all over the stouts at this time of year but enjoy the juicy IPAs all year whatever the weather

He dressed his team like golf wankers.

Wallop! Ultimate pub snack. Although “pub salad” aka a packet of crisps with Tabasco all over them will do in a pinch

Hopefully I didn’t put that idea in your head and you came to that conclusion of your own volition!

The margins are neither here nor there. My point is that is a wildly over-hyped beer that's no better than any other DIPA that Verdant or anyone else makes. When you compare it to the Deya beer I mentioned it's just not as nice in my opinion, so the fact that it's £2 a can more expensive makes for an underwhelming experience rather than a price scandal. If they're selling out I'm genuinely happy about that as a supporter of independent businesses and a Cornishman myself. I'm just baffled by the hype around what is just another DIPA.

So, based on last night's sampling...

The only way is up from 8% so I decided it was time to open this bottle from my last trip to Belgium in 2017. So, so good!

Grabbed a can of Verdant's Putty from my local shop yesterday and cracked it last night. Tried really hard to be objective and not hate it because of the hype. But it's just a nice DIPA, thick and full bodied, nice juicy taste but that's it. It still suffers from that cloying sugary build up by the end of the can that every DIPA I can remember has. A lovely beer but the hype and the price (2 for £12.50 where i got it from, but some places are charging £8 a can) is not justified, not even close IMO. Saturated in Motueka from Deya, 8% and £4.50 a can in the same shop, is a better beer.

+1 please!

There’s a card for that
