4th September 2013

I know it's not Monday, but I finally plucked up the energy to write something on here. I just logged in and noticed that I've just gone past 3000 page views in just under two years, which is fantastic because I didn't think anyone would care to read what I think about all these beers. So thank you very much for reading, and I hope you continue to do so. 

Old Slug Porter (England)

Let me tell you a little story. It was a Friday night and I really fancied a porter because I hadn't had one for ages. So I drank this. End of story. This porter was pretty good, but it had a strange aftertaste, which may be because I fudged the temperature and drank it colder than I perhaps should have. It tasted a little bit like coffee, which is what it's supposed to do. Not the best I've had, but I would buy it again, so you may consider that a recommendation. But only if you like porter. 

James Boag's Premium Lager (Australia)

As you can see, I've put this picture in an Australian-friendly manner. This way readers from the land down under will be able to see it properly. I was assured by the barmaid that this is the best Australian beer, but I dispute that. I've already had two Aussie beers that were better than this, both of them from from the Coopers brewery. This was light and refreshing, but nothing special.
