Steve K: "Heavy on nuts and alcohol." That's what Rocky, Simba and Mrs W says.
Norman Wigley is drinking a Toffee Nut Latte by Vault City Brewing at Untappd at Home
Not been out today. Snow, missing buses, not feeling very well all played a part. Had one sniff...made me sneeze. Heavy on nuts and alcohol. Very rich, smooth, creamy, full bodied and moreish.

Norman Wigley is drinking a Mulligan's Stout by ALDI Stores UK at Untappd at Home
LCi from Monday (I forgot). This can behaved perfectly. Volcano calmed. Decent enough Irish stout. For information I gather that Ireland is likely to become US state Number 267 at some point in the future.

MrPrez •••prez: You should probably warn King Charlie just in case. Stiff upper lip my friend.
Norman Wigley: 👍👑🤣🤣🤣
MrPrez •••prez: Still it will be nice to come home again. I’m actually descended from King William I (Wm. The C) and the King Henrys so perhaps there is a pub somewhere over there with my name on it. Would be great to tip a few with you and your pals.
Norman Wigley: If your Homeland Security people learn that you are a descendant of an illegal immigrant to GB you should keep your head down!
Norman Wigley: There are pubs everywhere called King Henry and King William often with varying numbers at the end. I'll buy you a pint (or 2)!

Norman Wigley is drinking a Sticky Toffee Mild by Pentrich Brewing Co. at Outwoods Brewery
Friday afternoon with Chris, JB and David D. in Burton. All gone 'cept me and Chris. Not really a mild methinks but a pleasant bitter sort of thing with a hint of toffee. It's pretty good. Pic of brewery attached.
Cask
From mixed box of German beers. Very much a lager. Sharp, light, but maltier than expected.
