Just arranged a last trip to this place before the Iron curtain descends on beer lovers.....https://www.vanuxeem.com/en/section/52/catalogue Going to be taking back every crate and empty I have and bagging up on the fourpacks as it may be impractical to get back there again due to costs and the probable reinstatement of the Duty Free allowance.... if not at the end of this March then fairly soon after any transition period..... sigh.

Just looking at the pictures gave me the vivid feelings of 'hangover'. I never do well with that kind of beer, gorgeous though it is.

I rarely have a hangover on most of this beer, I suffer awfully on the likes of Kronnenberg and Stella though.

I'm on the Bumble tonight. In the middle of 12 night shifts in a row so no boozing for me until Monday. I have some Whitley Bay Pale in the larder for when it's all over. I had a quick look at them before I left for work today, like a proud father checking in on his sleeping baby.

Stayed back to watch the end of the cricket, so was out longer than I intended. A few Hop Houses, and now I'm just finishing off a glass of red.

However, I have just abused a Palace fan online by calling him a mammering crook-pated spack gudgeon in a skull mask. So the evening has not been entirely wasted.

Mrs TC bought me a Green Gecko, one from Lidl’s range of ales the other week. It reminded me how surprisingly good their range is. I think they have others such as Red Rooster etc.
The names are a bit contrived but genuinely nice beer and from what I recall about £1.20 a bottle I think.

Worth trying if you find yourself in there looking for that special can of Schlappenslops or packet of Flugleflaps.

I can laugh now, sorry sick sense of humour, but I wasn't laughing that day, and I had to miss a home game as my hospital appointment was on a Sunday.

Wish you well, hope all is ok.

Cheers!

Yes, have tried them on occasions, they are not bad.

Not sure what you're getting at there, nout wrong with punk, but a deal is a deal . . . . Have you tried 'when in Rome'? Quality Italian wine, in a box. The barbera is lovely, not 2.50 though as we're not in Europe ;-(

That's what I love about these drinking threads. All the pretentious people who know so much more about beer than I and dismiss any other peoples choices. I will.be drinking Italian red wine from a carton. Only €2.50 a litre. I will be using a glass.

I once questioned the price of a pint of Punk in Brighton as being well expensive.

The answer was Brexit.....:ohmy:

Aldi do a few decent beers too.
