Glad you enjoyed the S&W. Have you tried the amber yet? I really enjoyed the S&W that much it went really fast.

Sadly Aydan's American Amber Ale is the last winnings in stock but a couple more to still come, thankfully.
Another fine drop, good gas on opening, good carbonation and poured well with nice tight head. This brew is rich in malt with a lovely hop finish to the palette. Beautiful fruity aroma and again the taste, so more-ish. A very enjoyable ale.
Cheers BB

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!

barrelboy, please accept my apologies for the delay. The ESB I mentioned in my PM 2 months ago turned out disappointing to say the least. If you don't mind waiting a couple more weeks, I've got a promising APA with Citra, Cascade and Willamette fermenting right now, or a Czech style pils in its 2nd week of lagering.

Otherwise, I still have one bottle of the robust porter that I sent to Jello and Sonny as the prize for the "Southern Spring" and "Xmas in July" lottos last year. It was well received by Sonny at the time, but the last time I sampled it a couple of months ago, it seemed to have lost some its punch. Possibly, I just drank it too cold though. Happy to post it now if you're thirsty or partial to a porter.

No problems in waiting at all, appreciate you letting me know.
Cheers BB

I am also guilty of being slack in sending the goods however it is boxed and addressed ready to be sent, touch wood I can get to the post office this week to get it sent. Always a struggle when you finish work @ 6 and the Post Office shuts @ 5.

[hyjak]

Hurrah, it is sent!
Look out for a random sashimi soy sauce box early next week.

[barrelboy]

Thanks hyjak, bottles received shaken but not stirred.
Will allow to settle and then enjoy. Will report soon.
Cheers BB
