TimPitot Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 I am currently savouring a bottle of Kernels Export India Porter, dark and roasty, perfect for a rainy day in London! Kernel is brewed up the road from me in Bermondsey by a single man operation, it ain't cheap, but its worth every penny! Kernel Export India Porter by timpitot, on Flickr Whats currently quenching your thirst? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old school Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm at work now, but when I get home tonight, I will enjoy a Bootleggers Rustic Rye IPA, or their Palomino. Bootleggers is brewed in Fullerton California. Cheers or a Michelada with a Mexican beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Moore Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Just moved to the Baltimore area & found Flying Dog Brewery's beers... My current fav is "Raging Bitch" Belgian -Style IPA. Have to say that originally any of the American-made Belgian-style beers that I tried were either too floral or disagreed with me (I must be allergic to the yeast in those cheap-ass coors/bluemoon beers- made me gag). Plus- I love the Ralph Steadman graphics on their lables! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Gilchrist Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic, John. Be sure to get down to the Wharf Rat on South Ann in Fells Point. My current fave is from Delaware, Dogfish Head Shelter Pale Ale But it's been pretty hot and I've also had the occasional G & T made with a locally distilled organically made gin from Catoctin Creek Distillers. Best regards, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Wexler Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 I love this topic but I'm wondering how anybody can still keep on typing after all this drinking! I guess the "What are you drinking" is sort of rhetorical, like "On my Radio" doesn't mean you're listening - drinking all this right now. Nice image gallery could come out of this --- beautiful labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPSharman Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 The Chocolate Block is a lovely and hearty blend from South Africa (although I typically buy domestic wines to cut down on the environmental impact of shipping). The Jumping Cow Amber Ale is full and flavorful, yet refreshing, from right here in southern California wine country (Paso Robles). Inexpensive and readily available from Trader Joe's. The Cascade Mountain Gin is from Oregon, and is the best gin I have ever had. My friend just saw some at a Whole Foods here in SoCal, but typically we wait for our friends to "mule" for us when they go up North.

WhyOne Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 Ok, Ok, this time with photos....... And about ten years ago, the buyer for Trader Joe's made a deal... and has carried this very respectable spirit for $43 ever since. Oh joy!

TimPitot Posted July 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 Chocolate Block is amazing, every time I go to SA I pick up a bottle or two. I'm surprised you get it all way in LA! Loving all the micro/craft brews - there seems to be a lot of great beer brewed in the states. It's morning here, so 'builders tea' as the poms call it, is imminent! Mmmm!

Little Creatures has a great selection (Pale Ale is a favourite) - from Fremantle/Perth James Boags has a great selection too, Premium and the St George in particular - from Tasmania Moo Brew - Tasmania The list goes on.

john Quinn Posted July 8, 2011 Report Share Posted July 8, 2011 Those all look like good choices and I think I have tried a few . But my favorite tipple these days is Tea . English Breakfast Tetleys or Builders brewed in the pot and served in a mug that you could throw a pool party in, the bigger the better.No Assam ,Earl Grey or fruit flavored camomile infused hand picked by Tibetan Grandmothers nonsense just tea.The stuff my Mother poured down our throats from the moment we came of the breast . From morning till night in the hard wet cold of a Scottish winter to the fierce heat of the Egyptian Sahara it warns your innards one day and refreshes you the next .And I swear there is no more welcoming words heard on location than "would you like a cuppa' it makes the longest days that little bit sweeter.
