28th November 2011

It's almost the end of the month, which means I have no money left. So this weekend I bought one or two (three) cheap beers from the book.

Baltika 6 Porter (Russia)
Not as good as the American porter I had last week, but still nice.

Velkopopovický Kozel (Czech Republic)
The beer that sends my spellchecker in to a frenzy (no, I do not mean Leopoldville, whatever that is) The book only said Velkopopovický Kozel and the shop I went to had three different kinds, so I bought the cheapest. Delicious and economical.  

Meantime London Pale Ale (England)
I love pale ale, but this was my first ever "London Pale Ale". I would definitely recommend this.

  1. If the book just says Velkopopovicky Kozel, it means the svetly one:

    Now you bought the cerny, dark, which is not as good, IMO. The 'svetly' version (I think it means 'light') is definitely one of my all-time favourites. It's also the favourite of Vaclav Havel so I'm at least in a good company with my opinion.

    You have to do this again now!

  2. Bugger, I knew I'd get the wrong one. Well, I have no intention of making this a 1002 beer quest, so this shall be our little secret.

    In any case, I have drank the svetly one before, so technically I'm not cheating...
