Yeah, it's a good beer.

NEIPA isn't usually my go to style, I prefer "cleaner" beers, but I can appreciate well made beers.

Apparently it's not a con, a panel, or a podcast.
So I'm hopeful, but ready to be disappointed :ยฌ/

I'd add "Don't ask for advice from people on the internet" ๐Ÿคฃ

I'm hoping it's not a reboot.
A season two, carrying on after the film, that's what I'd love to see.

This had better not be a disappointment.

You're gonna need to sit down for this one, but the side that bombed every school in Gaza, and denied bombing the girl's school in Iran (blaming a misfired Iranian missile), has now admitted it did bomb the girls' school after all. Astonishingly, the cover story was a lie.

...this cliente refuse to sign off on the job.
After a couple of weeks of this, my collegue made a change and the client signed off straight away.

He'd just created imagemaps of the entire screen.

Every page was a single image with an imagemap.

It was horrendous.
The client loved it.

At an agency I used to work at a collegue was dealing with a rather awkard client who was complaining that their image heavy website looked different on different browsers.
Obviously, the was quite a while ago.
The differences were only the odd pixel or two here and there, but it was enough for...

Couldn't find anything about it, so I'm obviously imagining things ๐Ÿคฃ

Don't think I had even noticed that Innis & Gunn were in administration, but interesting...will we see their beers here, then?

Didn't I&G recently buy someone else out of administration?

I remember many years ago at a doctors appointment my doc said I should cut down on my drinking because I was at risk of binge drinking.
Later that night I was working the local beer festival and ended up pouring him into a taxi because he was too pished to walk home.
Never listened to them since ๐Ÿคฃ

I think NEIPA is about to come back as a style this summer.
Brewers have got their feet with it, hops have been bred to suit it, so we could see a range of NEIPAs that actually showcase rather than abuse the style.

It's soooo smooth, soooooo gentle, soooo dangerous ๐Ÿคฃ

I'm currently up to chapter 6.
Started writing it while finishing the second book.

Yeah, I take a long time to get around to this writing stuff ๐Ÿคฃ

It should finish off the storyline for the two main characters though.

Write, I'm working on the third one in that series ;)

I think it all comes down to personal taste, what you prefer is the way you should drink it.

05.03.2026 20:21 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

You can.
Different sakes are better warm and cold.
Most of what I make are best served chilled.

I'm still to find a definitive way of saying what should be served which way. A lot of folks say to warm up the lower grade ones, but I've personally found some of those are better chilled.

05.03.2026 20:21 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I can see why drinking sake can lead to drinking a lot of sake.

I'm currently about 500ml into a 660ml bottle and am already thinking about putting a second bottle into the fridge.

If you get a good one (and this is probably only a 6/10 as it's my "bad" batch) it's just so easy to drink.
