The UK fishing season started on the 16th so I was walking down my local river this morning trying to see if the fish know about this yet.
I had a beer on me, specially picked for the Saturday beer channel; well, let's not lie about it, I had a beer on me because I was fishing and I think fishing goes hand in hand with drinking beer. I found about @detlev 's saturday beer post and decided to show it off, heh.
It's barbaric, I know, to drink a fine beer straight out of the bottle, but hey, I was walking up and down a river, couldn't really risk my fancy glasses for this.
This was a wheat beer with lots of coriander I imagine; it had almost a sour taste to it with the fruity citrusy flavours given by the seeds shining right through it. This particular brew is one of my easy to drink favourites on a summer's day.
Don't really have other pics of the beer to share, it was delicious and drank :)
I initially planed to have this beer after getting my first fish out so I kept trying and trying to get one. But they weren't showing themselves so I walked down the river to this:
And finally my patience paid off!
It isn't my biggest perch by far and I had a couple smaller ones more after this but still, this is a great start for the season!
My post is a bit late to the #saturdaybeer party; I went straight to the pub after my little fishing trip and my phone died, just got back, it's still Saturday though, heh.
Cheers guys
Great post and while reading I ask myself if fish cooked in beer is a good recipe?? ;-)
Have you on the list, even as I forgot to mention in which time zone this challenge works.

Had beer battered fish but haven't had fish actually cooked in beer but I think that should work just fine. I will investigate! :)

Nothing beats a day of fishing and beer, even if you don't catch anything!

I agree wholeheartedly. I went fishing yesterday as well, didn't catch anything except a sun burn but it was still great fun. In the end, seeing the fish weren't biting, I had a swim in the river which was just what I needed by that point.

Yes it did, thank you. I really like that beer but it's too bad it's quite difficult to find around here.
