Holmsdale FC had always sounded waaaay too Palace for my liking. Are they the team that play right next door to Bromley?ElfsborgAddick said:
As thought, the owner of this has the Pelton Arms. Also owns the Two Doves in Bromley Common, 200 yards from Homesdale FC if you fancy a bit of Kent League groundhopping.se9addick said:
Be careful, had a pint of the Alcohol Hand Gel once and it’s rank!ElfsborgAddick said:
£6.30 in the Shortlands Tavern is a tad strong.
£3.49 in the Wspoons, a massive difference that explains why they will never be empty.
Seriously though, they have Neck Oil from Bevertown, if they have Gamma Ray then get a pint of that.1 -
No ground next to Bromley. 15 minutes walk past Bromley College and turn right on to the Oakley Road.se9addick said:

However, Bromley is such that the spanners probably have more here than us, palice just smother the place.......sadly0 -
Two old favourites, and a sensible £4.70.
The Star & Garter opposite is a MUST for the CAMRA brigade.0 -
Hooligans! Loopy juice that is (or was at least).ElfsborgAddick said:
Not had this for a while, very tasty for a lager.0 -
A pint of Harvey's Best and a packet of SE7's finest! A combo never bettered.

Tried this in the Dartford Jug this afternoon, VERY heavy going, a grade down from Duvel and Delirium.
One is nice but need to go onto something less potent after.2 -
If you like whisky as well as cider, you must try this.
The local I got chatting to in the Dartford Jug insisted I tasted this.
I don't drink either whisky or cider BUT it was very nice. Very soft with a hint of whisky flavour.1 -
Inspired by an impromptu over the fence beer tasting with my splendid next door neighbour yesterday lunchtime (WFH so basically 1:30 to 3:30) I went to aldi for the first time in 18 months and stocked up with a heap of their craft beers in little tins, all priced 99p - £1.09 I think.
Yesterday's was the Freak Aleworks Phantom, and today I've had the half pipe session pale. Both very pleasant indeed.

This is one of my favourite beers, along side Kwak and Hertog Jan.ElfsborgAddick said:

My wife and I sunk a few of these on a weekend In Bruges. On draft it’s sublime.3 -
Often get the amber ale, IPA and golden ale from Aldi.IdleHans said:Inspired by an impromptu over the fence beer tasting with my splendid next door neighbour yesterday lunchtime (WFH so basically 1:30 to 3:30) I went to aldi for the first time in 18 months and stocked up with a heap of their craft beers in little tins, all priced 99p - £1.09 I think.

Whereas mine was out of beer one night and I gave him a few cans, then about 3 weeks later he brought back crateloads of Belgian beers he got for about a Euro each after working over there, and sat in the garden telling me how nice they were.
Didn't take a hint of me suggesting I've been meaning to try a couple of them....
Was like that scene in the Royle Family with Nana and the Revels. "Ooh, Delirium Red, that one's good, you should try that some time...."0 -
£1.39 for 600ml of Home Bargains finest Nigerian beer. It's certainly got a "unique" flavour going on.2 -
...this on the other hand was an absolute cracker. Soured but only quite mildly.3 -
How much was that @Bournemouth Addick as can’t see it for less than £12 which is way out of my budget.0
-
Mine too tbh, even for a 750ml bottle. I didn't buy it @MrOneLung but my local bottle shop was clearing some space so apparently had a few bottles he was knocking out around half that.MrOneLung said:How much was that @Bournemouth Addick as can’t see it for less than £12 which is way out of my budget.1 -
It's a funny old world Saint, but to me "shine shine Bobo" and a label with six different fonts doesn't exactly suggest 'premium quality. Hope you enjoyed it.Bournemouth Addick said:

Some people will drink any old muck.

Um...not really Stig. It's good to try new beers but this was a challenge. I think they use some root or herb in the mash which results in quite a strong mouthwash undertone coming through. One for the Listerine fans.Stig said:

Doesn't Listerine at least say 'do not swallow' on the label?0

Listerine was first marketed as a floor cleaner. Perhaps that's what the Shine Shine is on the label.1

It's like Ribena for beer drinkers. Got to be honest, when I started I thought it would be top marks, but half way down and I'm already thinking too much fruit.

Lovely nutty taste.

The above reminds me of drinking sessions after work at The Phoenix and The Finery. Good old days.0

Nice, but maybe a little too heavy for me. Definitely one for sipping not necking.

I'm keeping it light tonight, but that Trappe Dubbel looks gorgeous.
