What's your tipple this evening?

Post by ClaretAndJew » Sat Dec 21, 2019 8:33 pm

I'm currently drinking Czech lagers.

Not sure if they are real Eastern European ones, but I am drinking actual real Budweiser and not the American ****.

Good win and may your hangover not be too bad.

Co-op Fairtrade Carmenere. Best £6 odd bottle of red that I'm aware of.
Didnt have a drink down in Bournemouth and got wet through trekking back to Pokesdown station so deserving of a few glasses this evening to celebrate the 3 points.

A really nice French Pinot Noir from Lidl. Just taken delivery of a 32 year old brandy and had a sample. As smooth as a really smooth smooth thing. Popped in the drinks cabinet ready for Xmas.

Fuller's 1845. I opened a bottle late last night and I wasn't in the mood, the half-bottle left tastes better this evening.

The neighbours very kindly got me a bottle of Talisker Skye single malt for feeding the cats while they were on holiday.

Having opened it over the weekend I've offered to feed the cats every day - holiday or not!
