It's good to see the quality beer flow.
Last night I had myself a Budvar and Duvel as well. Got another for tonight and a bottle of Brooklyn lager, have to give that a try.
Right now I've got some new coffee, as I'm still on the trail to find some decent coffee. I somewhat optimistically picked up Sainsbury's New York style half caff yesterday in hope - I'll try that one.

Ha, ha perhaps. Life imitates art, life imitates art.
The coffee is crap. I'm yet to try the lager. Actually, a lot of the American beers are gaining prominence in the real ale market. I've yet to try many though.
Going in the bath with one of those poor Stellas, then I'm having the Brooklyn and a Duvel later. Need to get in the bath with a book, Woolf again or maybe my pink economic text book?
I do hope that the Brooklyn beer doesn't resemble sterilised Hudson river water but I would keep the Duval until last, just in case.
I also hope poor Stella isn't offended by your reading V.Woolf or studying economics while you are both in the bath.
As for the coffee, I usually rely on Kenco's South American countries; I don't think that supermarket own brands are to be relied on. Right now, I am back on the Cote du Rhone 2008 with an Italian salad. I keep telling myself that it's naughty to be drinking red wine with salad but, although I would never drink red with fish, I'm unable to resist it in most other instances.

Oh boy this Brooklyn beer is tops. Shame I only got one bottle, but once bitten...It’s light and delicate, but with a very powerful mouth feel and long nutty/bittersweet aftertaste, definitely recommended for a one-off. Looking forward to my Duvel though.
What Stella doesn’t know...I have finished with Stella anyway, the last of it has gone and I’m never drinking it again, unless I walk into a pub/bar and there is absolutely nothing else.
Your right about supermarket coffee, but I was town in Sainsbury’s the other day and there was absolutely nothing else. Douwe Egberts in the silver packet used to be readily drinkable, but I can’t find that blend anywhere, only the green packet one which is no good. I’m lost without Pollards, it’s a damn shame.
Red wine and salad eh, where’s the white? I adore red wine but I just cannot drink it without food. And after one or two glasses I need the coldness of beer/cider but then the mixture plays hell with me, so I tend to avoid generally. Maybe if you stick some cheese in that salad you can get away with it.
Sorry Neely,
The bottle of Cotes du Rhone is empty and I'm about to hit the hay big time.

There's no point in shaving some parmesan over the salad then?
Look out for the Brooklyn lager it's worth a go.
I'm just finishing my Duvel, putting off the moment when I have to surrender another day.
Just had a couple of biscuits and a jasmine tea to relax after a nasty incident when my neighbour's cat walked in with a large gash in the side of its neck.
The neighbour wasn't in so I took it to the vet to get it cleaned up and given an antibiotic injection. A cup of tea is always welcome after something like that.
Anyway, I have just googled Brooklyn lager and it has quite an interesting background, so If I decide to go to the supermarket today, I'll try to get hold of a bottle.

I am eating pastrami flavoured Bagel Chips and drinking Theakston's Old Peculiar. This will be followed by a bottle of Duvel and also one of Brooklyn lager.

Oh super, you managed to get a Brooklyn lager then? I'm somewhat jealous I think it is a fine little drink and I am hoping to get hold of one or two tomorrow. You must report back.
I'm going with the Leffe Blonde tonight, just two or three bottles because I have a full-on day tomorrow, work followed by uni, so must be semi-fresh I suppose. Work and all of that is such a bore. Instead I'm thinking of making money by playing quiz machines and selling bananas.
