I had a few attempts at brewing my own beer but we didn't like the taste of it. Recently I have tried some of the Craft beers made over here. I found them expensive and up there with my home brewing attempts.
When I went to Canterbury at the end of July. I would go in Wetherspoon's and order a pint of Cornish Doom Bar bitter for two Pounds a pint. Then I would go in Sainbury's and purchase a few bottles of Newcastle Brown Ale. The cashier would ask me every time if I wanted a bag and if I wanted a receipt. Dear old Blighty.
Time for a sing song me thinks:
That's cheap. I would drink cider too at that price. I presume the taste is to your taste.
ReplyDeleteI've heard potato wine is quite nice and you could make your own , you've got plenty of potatoes!
Just joking although one of my uncles made potato wine.....many many years ago. I was too young to taste it myself thank goodness.
Here the cheapest alcohol is homemade wine....from grapes.
2.5-3 euros for one a half litres. Very drinks le
Hi LA. Yes it's nice. We get it from the German garden centre and supermarket where we do our shopping in town. I think vodka and poteen is made from potatoes. Poteen is called 'the white lemonade' in West Cork. You can even buy legally distilled poteen here now. The grape wine sounds very cheap. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI think they are making potato gin now too. I don't drink cider although I have done so in the past. It is nice to drink and quite pleasing.
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel. Gin is very popular over here at the moment. Never heard of potato gin. I once drank some dodgy scrumpy at Glastonbury. Five Pounds for a gallon in a clear container with chunks of wood floating in it. There's some lovely cider in Herefordshire and the West country. I drink it because it's cheap and strong. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI wonder whatever happened to Newky Brown!
ReplyDeleteI have just managed to reply to you Valerie after Gwil's comment.
DeleteIn the 1950s when I was a nipper my dad would buy two bottles of Woodpecker Cider on his way home on a Friday and in the evening mum and he would open one. The other was for the Saturday evening. That was their night life.
ReplyDeleteHi Valerie. They sell bottles of dog (Newcy Brown ale) in supermarkets like Sainbury's and Asda. I bought some bottles from Sainbury's when I went to Kent in July.
ReplyDeleteHi Gwil. I remember Woodpecker cider. Lovely that your parents would share a bottle of cider on a Friday and a Saturday night.
ReplyDeleteHello everyone i am very delighted that i recently got cured of herpes virus. I have been battling with this disease for over 4 years now, ever since i got diagnosed of the virus i have been using medical pills and therapies to suppress the virus. But inside of me i needed the Virus gone cause my health was deteriorating, So i went on to the internet to search on how one could get cured from this virus, when i came across some testimonies on how herbalist razor has helped them get rid of Herpes virus, Hiv/aids, Cancer. I copied out his details (email ; drrazorherbalhome@gmail.com) and Whatsapp number (+2349065420442) as provided by the testifiers on a blog site. But before that i was so skeptical, i knew there are so many herbal doctors on the internet,i needed the one who can help me get through this Herpes Virus completely with his herbal Remedy. I got in contact with doctor Razor,and i explained my problem to him and he promised to help me, which he actually did. I got my medication in the US sent by doctor razor and he instructed me on how i was to take it for 18 days. After the said 18 days i went for medical check up and the doctors ran some test on me and told me i was Herpes Negative, i was amazed and dumb-folded, so i had to go back home, i noticed my health for some months, i didn't have any outbreaks nor symptoms of the virus, but i went to another hospital after 2 months to conduct another test and the same result. I will be forever grateful to you doctor Razor and I will make sure the world gets to know about your herbal exploits sir. Reach doctor razor on his email : drrazorherbalhome@gmail.com or whatsapp/call his cell on +2349065420442
ReplyDeleteFINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUSI thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because life became meaningless to me because I had herpes virus, the symptoms became very severe and bold and made my family run from and abandoned me so they won't get infected. I gave up everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because the doctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs but they never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me making it worse. I was doing some research online someday when I came across testimonies of some people of how DR ADIGBA cured them from herpes, I never believed at first and thought it was a joke but later decided to contact him on the details provided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent me his herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after two weeks. Within 7 days of medication the symptoms disappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I was NEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you DR ADIGBA because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep on telling the world about you. If you are going through same situation worry no more and contact DR ADIGBA via dradigba@gmail. com or WhatsApp him via +2348077875210. he is good too to cure all type of disease and virus. 1 HIV cure 2 cancer 3 diabetes 4 hepatitis 5 herpes. You can contact if you are having any problem...
