            Making me thirsty gents… As I'm in an at risk group I can't go to the large shopping center where the major monopoly store is. So I'm confined to a little one with a spread of staple beers... the lack of new fun stuff is wearing a bit thin. That honey stout looks especially exciting @scooter

              I just re-stocked the IPA fridge. Stout stock is ok.

                  I was unsure about the ginger in this one, but it wasn't overly strong. Maybe the oats mellowed it out?

                    Sounds interesting…. ginger, like liquorice is something I’ve always felt should work in proper beer. I’ve said it before but I’ve always found attempts at liquorice beers to fail, but someone has worked out how to do it and has clued others in too. This is the third or fourth liquorice stout since Xmas, they’ve all been good but this is great. Powerful, creamy base, and with a big liquorice ending. It’s only 5.1% but tastes like an impy. Amazing.

                    I’m also partial to strong Golden Ale, so when Nøgne brought one out for Easter I was as happy as an Eli in shit. Predictably it’s a bit “meh”. Not bad but surprisingly tame and uninteresting.

                        I had this last night. Sceptical to chili in but this worked a treat…

                        I've still got a can of this. It's what's left of a 4-pack. I've been taking my time with them. While, I've read countless reviews commenting on the lack of heat, mine have certainly had their fair share. I haven't finished a whole can, as yet. There is no doubt, I'm a glutton for punishment. With each can, I keep hoping one will have a little less spice.

                          I'm liking it. Although, I'd be interested to see how it would be without the added lactose. I think the honey may be sweet enough, on its own.

                            I was really happy with it, exactly because there wasn’t too much heat. I don’t want spicy hot beer, the idea just turns me off. But I thought this was peppery and tasty.

                              I like liquorice, so like you, I think that seems like a natural fit. I'll have to keep an eye out for some locally. Though it's summertime and that is more likely to show up in cooler weather, so I probably won't find any for the next six-eight months.

                                      @scooter how are you finding the European beers? That impy Nøgne is their standard. Hasn’t changed in 10 years.
