The water meter leak is now going to fixed. I’m completely skint after getting my car (Marge) through it’s MOT and I’m listening to DTNS Briefing where I got a mention. Beer from good friends and raising the glass to Mr Kev. Enjoy life while you can.

Fine Ale Saturday

A Saturday morning in The Malcolm Uphill before moving on to The Project. The weather is a little confused and I’m on the Röad Crëw Ale. All rather pleasant.

A different sort of prelude this week. I was in Aldi on Monday and saw their Hazy Jane knock off at £1.69 for a 440ml can. Purchased it and now doing a compare and contrast with the original. Prelude, Caerphilly, this afternoon.

Went with BrewDog

Another hybrid Beano and it’s time to finish off the 4 for the price of 3 from Sainsbury’s. Starting with an updated version of Cheeky V from Tiny Rebel. Red, fruity and a touch sour. The Project in Caerphilly later.

A lie in and it’s already steaming hot. A day for cold beer and aircon. PM in The Project Caerphilly where maybe I’ll have a crisp Lager to start. Head full of The Foundation and Murderbot.

Prelude – Beers and Ciders Of The Beano – Saturday 05 July 2025

After the heatwave, the very rainy Saturday. The penultimate day of The Wetherspoon’s Cider and Perry Festival. Drinking local with Gwynt y Ddraig Fiery Fox. Dangerously drinkable at 6.5% ABV. I’m mostly complaining about the weather.

Amber weather warning for the east of England. Caerphilly, grey and drizzly. Rather Fine Beer List at The Project Caerphilly. Happy Aircon and Mesh WiFi too.
