It's an intriguing flavour for sure, I'd have a swig.
But would you choose it from amongst sensible beers you could have bought instead?

Yeah I would.
Might be the greatest flavour revelation since Banoffe. Probably won't be, but MIGHT be.
Only one way to find out.

Tried to force down a cold beer in this lovely weather. Must be the covid that made it taste fucking awful...

Somebody wasted perfectly good drinking water making that. Comedy beers.
As the brewery name is an insult they must sit there in Hong Kong thinking 'What can we sell the white, western suckers next?'
What does it mean? I've tried google translate and can see comedy but not necessarily an insult (but that's probably more about my lack of knowledge/google translate!)

Fuck all. Feel like crap, no energy and this cough is doing my bollocks in.
No Mrs. Gremlin here, can't go out, can't invite people round and the Gremlinette is treating me like a leper.
Bored. Bored. Bored.

Frogs next, best get some more tape.
We took baby D to the local splash play park thing today, she had a great old time umm...splashing. I have to tip my hat to the little kid on the pirate ship with the water cannon though. Said cannon has three jets coming out of it, little kid figured out if he put his fingers over the two of them the remaining third goes miles further. Far enough in fact that it could reach outside the fence of the splash area right the way to the tables of waiting adults
After the splashing we spontaneously hired one of those 4 person bike/car things and went for a cycle in the 30 degree heat. That was a mistake.

Love kids like that*. He'll either grow to be a great success at whatever he chooses to be or be languishing in nick for a twenty year stretch.
*unless they start spraying me, of course.

Mrs Gremlin saw the upmarket town of Portofino on telly a while back and commented on how nice it looked and how we might take a long weekend there. As I'm a nice guy I thought I'd plan a little surprise trip...

I'm thinking a weekend in Margate might be more likely.
