2nd January 2012

Happy new beer everyone! As I'm still in the UK I continued my theme of drinking English beers, with one Polish beer thrown in as an acknowledgement of my heritage.

Well's Banana Bread Beer (England)

Beer made with bananas. It has a very interesting taste. Wait, interesting is the wrong word, I mean... erm... disgusting. What the hell were they thinking?

Źywiec (Poland)

The Poles, like the Czechs, make some excellent beers. This is one of them. It got my new year celebrations off to an great and delicious start.

Bateman's Victory Ale (England)

I do like beers that have a lot of flavour and also have a bit of a kick to them. Victory Ale scores a win in both of those departments (see what I did there?) 

Timothy Taylor's Landlord Strong Pale Ale (England)

This was my first beer of 2012, I was already pretty drunk, as you may be able to tell from the wonky picture of a half-empty bottle. I had had this before and it's lovely, great way to start the year.
