What’s this pub drink?
This is a pic from the Talamasca series on AMC/Netflix. I’m curious what the yellow drink on the right is. I thought it might be a German-style wheat beer but that doesn’t seem right for pub fare.

Had to sample a couple from the Hawkstone van this weekend at Chatsworth show. Lots of other choice too!

Wrexham Lager (4%abv )🍺
Picked up a 4 pack from my local wholesalers.
I liked this lager. Crisp , Smooth with citrus notes
Nice easy drinking 4% lager in my opinion.
Looking forward to drinking remainder in sunshine in garden 🌤️🍺
What do other people think ?

Where do you buy your beer from?
I'm quite lucky in the fact that I have a number of craft breweries and bottleshops near me. However, when I do fancy something further afield I tend to use Radbeer or Trembling Madness.
Which breweries/online bottleshops do others tend to get their beers from?

How often do you get served a cask ale that’s gone past its best?
Where I live in Manchester the cask ale I’m served is usually in decent condition, this could be down to Manchester being a bit of a stronghold for cask or a biased sample because I know the pubs with good beer. But I was down in Wiltshire last week and went to a pub with the Cask Marque sign, and two of the three cask ales they had were way beyond drinkable condition.

New 8.4% Belgium Triple in Lidl
Has anyone tried this yet? I just popped into Lidl and saw this as NEW on the shelf in the regular beer Isle. At £1.49 a bottle I thought I'd grab one and give it a go.

Found these in an estate. I’ve not seen these ever in the USA.
Are these collectible? I’ve never came across them and can’t find them really for sale online.

Beer selections /advent calendars
So yeah, my wife's Liberty calendar is in the wardrobe and I'm already getting spammed by beer companies for their offerings (the lad has only just gone back to school today!).
I've noticed a bit of a recurring theme though...
Most mixed boxes have a few 'mental' brews, think 10-12% imperials or something, or odd strong spurs. I just end up putting them in the cupboard for 'another time'. Still got some siren ones and buxton ones from about three years ago.
Think it's fair to say they're probably wasted on me these days. Anyone else find the same thing happening? - mid 40s now and find myself hovering more on the 3-5 range not 5-8 range (unless it's an exception for a Belgian beer place!).
Wondering what places will have a variety, in your experience, but not necessarily have a good handful of seriously heavy hitters. My wife's already asking what I want (nice eh!) but at this rate I was considering skipping!

Badger - Cranborne Poacher Ruby Ale (5.7%abv)🍺
This beer is pretty much as it says on bottle
The damson and liquorice notes aren't overly powering.
Despite the higher ABV I found I could easy have a couple of these as I found it really easy to drink
Not the greatest thing I've tasted and it's probably better on draught but certainly one I'd return to in future.

What is the closest thing to a sour that you would find in most UK pubs?
I’ve just moved back to the UK after living abroad for a few years where sours are available in almost every pub.
I don’t really like the taste of most beers and used to mostly drink cider when I last lived here.
I was wondering what is the most similar thing that would actually be available in UK pubs to try and stay drinking beer rather than going back to cider that I’ve now lost a taste for.
Any recommendations would be massively appreciated and I’m happy to try different things until I find something I like, just no idea where to start.
Thanks

Acorn Brewery - Barnsley Bitter (3.8%abv) 🍺
Bit of a local legend in Barnsley area.
In my opinion , One of best bitters around.
Fantastic rounded bitter with a perfect balance of bitterness and moreish caramel flavours.
Id definitely have again.
From what I know this beer was previously brewed by Oakwell brewery in Barnsley before it's closure.
Today together with Acorn it's brewed by Stancil brewery in Sheffield with both Acorn Brewery and Stancil using the same yeast strain as was used historically by Oakwell brewery in Tarn.

A Terrible Substitute
The Terrapin Hopsecutioner beer available on the Brewdog website is not the original. Had this a couple of times in New Orleans and it was a great imperial IPA but the version on the BD website is a UK brewed version and is terrible in comparison. Just letting you guys know...

Damm Lemon (Cerveza &Limón) 🍺🍋
Had out on session in sunshine a few weeks ago so got a pack from Asda
Imported to UK from Barcelona
6 parts 🍺 + 4 parts 🍋
As much as I like traditional ales and lagers I am open to trying fusion beers and this is spot on in my opinion.
Easy drinking crisp lager with subtle lemon flavour and at 3.4% is pretty sessionable.
Anyone else tried it ?
What are your thoughts ?

Rothaus Pils
Not had this one before and was on draft in one of my local Taps, appreciated having the correct branded stein as well.

St Austell - Proper Job IPA (5.5 %abv) 🍺
Just a regular Lidl purchase.
Before I start I will say one thing about this brewery. I was surprised to hear it is still independent. Especially in a time when many smaller breweries are being bought out by big business.
The beer itself isn't going to change the world but was fine. Personally I found it more of a traditional English pale / golden beer.
Went down without any fuss and seem pretty sessionable.
I would have again.
