I've got a Polka, Belgian Champagne Yeast Candy Cane Pale Ale 6% which sounds abysmal but you never know. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised by either the beer or the Albion performance, or both.

It's a bit early just now but it's unlikely I'll get through watching us sober.

The only booze I have in that is not to be "saved for Christmas" is some Jamshed Shiraz from Tesco at £6 a bottle. Goldstone1976 and Machiavelli should turn away from this horrific admission of a guilty pleasure right now, since I will lose every shred of respect I might have one had. This is a sweet, jammy red as per the title. It tastes as if they have shipped in the bloke from Ribena as head taster and tried to make a port. it is the least complex wine known to man, with the possible exception of that pink Zinfandel stuff that Dorises drink at barbeques. However, it needs no food, indeed pairing it with food is a crime punishable by two weeks in the stocks and a lifetime ban from Laithwaites. Furthermore it is "quaffable" meaning an entire bottle can be consumed during a 90 minutes football match without a second being needed to appreciate what is in one's mouth.

So I'll probably have that.

I have a bottle of Waitrose Plonk di plonk Bordeaux, just in case. It's actually pretty good and in the £6 bracket! ( I'm no wine snob )

The wine shown under my user name is now, and has always been, in the top 5 that I wanted to try. It's the only one I haven't. Maybe 2021 will be the year that I finally say "**** it, I'm buying one"?

Good thing about football is it's a great excuse to drink during the week.

I am halfway through a socially distanced (by several hundred miles) Burgundy en primeur tasting. I have 42 bottles of samples of 2019 Burgundies to taste. They are only 20cl each but I have to make notes...

For some reason, when I got in from work I decided to finish building a stud wall ready for plastering. Found a few tins in the pantry . . . Quickly knocking up a thai curry and game on! C1BE566C-4AEB-4F75-BD68-D2B1D36FD2E5.jpeg
