I know we’re not supposed to judge, but I am me and I judge the country /region by how they brew a Pilsner style beer. So: 1. Kudos for calling it a Pils - you have my heart @brasseriemeteor.bsky.social - 2. this is bangin’!! and 3. Sorry for not writing this in French #soz @chimprocket.bsky.social

I was prepared for something great when I opened @tomoliverscider.bsky.social Coppy 2022 & 2023, but what greeting me in the glass is beyond Perry Shangri-La! Tom Oliver I salute you (I most definitely have to get @chimprocket.bsky.social in a car and
come and see the great old tree for myself) 🍐

Well, this is about to happen 🍇 to the girl who, a few years ago, called red wine “dead” and undrinkable 😇 worried and excited in equal measures @wsetglobal.bsky.social @chimprocket.bsky.social

Whenever I’m in Belgium, my first beer has to be a Jupiler, no compromises. Can’t say why or how this came to be, but it’s one of those tradition that I hold dear and shall continue

I wish digital scratch and sniff was a thing - you just have to imagine this photo smells like mulled wine and hot caramelised honey almonds
