Jim de Liscard is drinking a Vanity Metrics by Verdant Brewing Co
Ah, so it's back to the original hop from the experimental beer after a brief foray into Motueka. Maybe not quite as good as previous though still borderline 4. On Zoom you can't tell who's wearing high heels. Or a miniskirt. Or stockings. Probably Doug

There's plenty of apricot going on but it's all quite restrained now. I could almost be persuaded it was in the hops but apparently there are very few in this. So, funky apricot it is, with just a little tartiness rather than full on

Jim de Liscard is drinking a Forever Chubbles (2026) by Cloudwater Brew Co.
Slightly different this year but still not sure about vintages. One thing that hasn't changed is it being bloody lovely. A bit orange, a bit sherbet,a bit dank. I'm forever drinking Chubbles? What a way to go

Third. Looks like I picked the wrong week to give up sniffing glue. And we don't care. Still probably going to think of this as Pretty Vacuous but too many reminders of other things. What's the beer like? Oh yeah! 4.25/4.5

Jim de Liscard is drinking a Hooked On Aotearoa by Cloudwater Brew Co. at The Craft Beer Cabin SE25
Third. The weather's a bit rubbish so changes are the ridiculous England / New Zealand test match isn't happening. But beer is still a thing and this is still on so I'm going to drink it cos it's lovely.
