When I first moved to Manchester, I was most aggrieved to be handed a pathetically small, dry, entirely plain and suspiciously Asda multipack-sourced plain bread roll (not even with any butter FFS), having been offered - and ordered - a "barmcake". >:|

Me too! I talk about it regularly as I absolutely loved it. I haven't been able to recreate the experience since though.

I just had a coffee IPA which is a combination of two of my favourite things.

Specifically, I've been known to eat sausage, egg, and chips with a spoonful of Branston-style pickle on the side.

Also do an excellent range of crafty type beers. Their coffee ale is made by Brains, if I recall correctly.

They really are, but there's plenty of them around. I've never seen a coffee IPA before. It worked really well.

It's Black Iris Brewery who are Nottingham-based. I'll see if I can get some bottles. It was called Morning Glory.

Kern · **Posted:** Fri Jan 27, 2017 18:52

I find coffee porters are ok until you get to about half-way down the pint, when they outstay their welcome. See also, ginger infused beers.

Yeah that's a decent beer. I think that dark beers like stouts and porters actually work better in cask.

Vaguely interesting:

Saltaire Brewery do a beer called Cascade. Last year, i think it was, your linear time confuses me, they casked a load up in wooden barrels, rather than the normal ones. Its taste was different. It was much more rounded. Lovely, it was.

TIFU by forgetting to tip a waitress. On realising my error, I returned to the establishment and paid up. Poor form Kern.

I think that and being powerless to stop people cheering on the rise of fascism contributes to a great feeling of anger, but Christ I shouldn't be taking it out on stuff that I am trying to pack into boxes (Moving house next weekend).

Only today? I've been angry and upset about it (upset about being constantly angry, that is) for several months. Typical grumpy old man, I am.

The future scares the crap out of me.
