Firstly I have no affiliation to Whin Hill but I love every cider I've had fron there.
This one for me was very much like a good quality vintage.
Perfect balance of flavour and dryness.
6.5 ABV pale ale
I actually think this is a nice refreshing beer.
Not too heavy on the hop flavour and certainly sessionable in my opinion
Had a pleasant walk round this church yard.
Played around with different filters to add effect.
Hope you can appreciate these and give me your thoughts.
Delicious biryani and bhaji my wife cooked in the week.
Perfectly seasoned beef with a balanced level of spices 😋
Finished off with a superb onion bhaji with I left til end and dipped it the minted yogurt
Picked up these world cup novelty beers
Haven't tasted them yet.
Am intrigued by the hogs back beer.
Any one else got any thoughts ?
Had this whilst out for a meal a few nights ago.
Thought it would be a reminder of my old mate.
Still a fairly decent beer. Flavour was ok , but not the same as I remember. Strangely enough I used to find this beer a bit dry but even that seems to have gone.
This version was brewed in UK.
Be interested to hear about the original versions of this beer , Which is probably the one my mate used to like to drink while we were out in town.
Never have I been disappointed with Boatmans Rest.
Staff are always friendly too.
Lovely little place nestled in the town of Worsborough on outskirts of Barnsley.
Ordered this from specials board earlier in week.
Homemade chips, succulent fish in batter and school dinner style mushy peas 😋
Delicious from first bite to last.

I've heard the hype and seen stuff on social media so decided to visit Milk From The Hills this week.
Unfortunately the desert parlour wasn't open as I'd look forward to that. But they looked to be taking a midweek opportunity to do some renovations , Can't blame them for that.
As for the place. It's clearly a place that's heading for bigger things and I enjoyed the novelty of getting locally sourced milk in a variety of flavours from the vending machines
I like the Merch and that they had other 3rd party items on offer such as cheeses and cakes.
I got a strawberry shake and a bottle to bring home to use as a vase later.
I enjoyed the tranquil setting in the midweek sunshine
What are your thoughts ??

First time trying this.
It's not artisan or craft but for a budget option in mid week sunshine here in UK I didn't mind it at all.
The carbonation was balanced with a rounded apple flavour. Sessionable in my opinion.
No selfies. Just your beer
​
Here's mine.
​
Not sure where Vocation brewery are on peoples ratings but looking forward to this American Pale Ale.
Picked this up from Lidl a few weeks ago.
​
I think it may have replaced Brewdog Black Heart ?
​
Always enjoy this on draught and was interested to see how the can version measured up.
​
I actually enjoyed this brewed. I had it at nearly doom temperature and found the taste malty and smooth and certainly sessionable.
Fantastic Belgium abbey beer.
​
Nicely rounded bitter flavour which I found very moreish.
​
Despite the 6.5 %abv I found this ale very easy to drink.
Fabulous craft Perry right here.
​
Very crisp fruity cider with a hint of dryness
​
Big fan of Whin Hill cider (Yes I know this is Perry but I will have a cider post to follow)
​
Certainly recommend if you in Norfolk 👍
Just a pretty standard Aldi UK wheat beer here.
​
Had it a few times in bottle. But this was my second bottle in can form.
​
You know wot. I thought it was just fine. I mean I was sat with friends so wasn't really in full beer critic mode and this went down just right.
​
Not as flavoursome as most mainstream wheat beers. But on a budget it worked and the sunshine helped 😋😎🍺
Not sure what to say about this .
Had this on draught in Scotland many years ago and thought it was spot on.
This version I picked from B+M isn't the same in my opinion. Looks to now be brewed by Carlsberg in England.
Thought this beer tasted very basic , Not much going off with flavour. Got one can left from the 4pack I bought. Going to give it a short chill and see if I can release some flavour.
Northern Monk - Bobbi Abbey Hazy IPA 6% ABV
One from back the of beer cupboard.
You know wot , I try loads of beers and have my fair share of rubbish ones.
This isn't one of them.
Great citrus and hoppy flavour. Does wot a good beer should and takes you on a journey
Visited Eastfield farm this week for a spot of strawberry picking
Fabulous 4.5 %abv pale ale here from North Riding Brewery in Yorkshire England.
Had this over bank holiday in sunshine.
Fine balance of hops , smooth and just general moreish flavour. Very sessionable in my opinion.
Would certainly gravitate towards in future
First time trying this Aldi wheat beer since it's move to cans.
I didn't mind the previous bottled version and found it value for money when on a budget.
Obviously it wasn't really going to compete with Erdinger or franziskaner and other not so mainstream wheat beers. But it was fine.
This new can version seems to have lost a little flavour. Whether that's just the can I'm not sure.
I have another can which I'll have later in week for another opinion but for now , What are peoples thoughts on this ??
