Time for a Saturday evening livener, and a small yet focussed dab or two of cheese.
@scatterlings__ continue to wow with their mixed ferm focussed saison loveliness. Vidal is an especially good match with this goats milk gorgonzola.

Rattling through a few of the #SWSadvent beers this evening... A tale of two beers here one of which is brilliantly drinkable in its simplicity. The second of which is decadently contemplative!!!

Just a little evening snack...
The "Eve" goats cheese was liquid pretty much straight out of the fridge. But oh so delicious.

My incredibly sore feet say it's very much time for a post #ISBF9 cool down. Naturally with a lovely plate of contemplative cheese.
Tonight accompanied by a little something from @idealdaybrewery.

A very civilised end to a rather lovely first #ISBF9 session.
Cheese courtesy of the ever lovely Birmingham based @Curds_Whey. Beer something delicious from @AmpersandBrewCo... Bohemian Rex, an Amber Czech lager.
Excellent accompaniment to this Doddington cheddar.

Up next it's time to start getting my taste buds trained for the Heritage Beer session at @salfordbeerfest on Friday evening. Trained as it happens by one of the breweries that has been a stand out for me over the last few years... @STFermentations.

Sat contemplating just how uniquely good this @OtherworldBrew White Oak IPA is with a stunningly tasty bit of 30 Month aged Comte.

Picked up this wee surprise from @STFermentations earlier via @StirchleyWines, and well oh my!
Bursting straight out of the glass as it was being poured, it was immediately evident that this is no ordinary Belgian Blonde. Rippling with fruity esters and tropical accents...

Having had the chance to try the prototype of this beer at #ISBF a couple of years back... This is seriously accomplished stuff!!! A lovely sherbet-like citrus note on opening. In the mouth this is orange and pithy grapefruit all over the place.

The great thing about beer, especially those with a more experimental leaning is that you never really know what you are going to get...
On the face of it a blend of Tripel & Lambic; billed as a "Triple Saison"... It's so much more though. Woody, acidic yet full of balance!

It's been a long hot old week; but as we fade magically once more into the weekend we have one or two new beers from De La Senne.
🍺 Petit Boulba - 2.8%
🍻 Wadesda #9 - 8% (w/ @CantillonBeer)
🍺 Brusselier - 8%
On the shelves right now!!!

A fantastic book that one, I picked up a copy many years ago (sans) slip cover in my youth. A fascinating occasional read!

Happy Gyle 1000 to those upstanding hepcats at @atombeers.
This is quite the statement; not big and boozy as the strength would imply. More so this is an exercise in balance, and a credit to the brew team.
Rich and decadent with a twist of cherry. If there was a BA version...

And now for something completely different...
A big thick robust porter with a sweet kiss of cherries; Negative Charge from @atombeers. It's a bit alright this full of roasty notes with a silky sweet cherry finish.
Picked up from that @StirchleyWines

A nice easy drinking rice lager is how Friday is shaping up... Komorebi from @atombeers; the perfect starter for ten.
Light, refreshing with a distinctly crisp citrus laden finish.
