Hot diggly donk, it's been a long week and no mistake. Are you ready for some beerage? I know I am. Who invented this work malarkey that forces a man to not drink beer whenever he pleases?

However, forget all that because it's

And this week I am hoping every one will be a knockout!! So what have we got?

This is a new brewery on me, The Firestone Brewing Company!! Darkening our doors with a honkingly amusing can. Look at this beastie. It's awesome, is that a lion headed skeleton!

It's a strong one too at 6.5%. Despite the fancy design it doesn't actually tell me anything about it. Is it a lager? Let's see.

Ah, it's a lager alright. Nice and crisp. Very clean and it didn't taste at all strong. Which could be a bad thing if you tanned ten of them down your neck. It's very good though, a moreish beer. I am enjoying it very much. 7.5/10

Another mother of sheer funk design. I feel spoiled this week.

It says on the bottle that it is an Imperial Stout. Good lord, it has mulato AND chipotle chilli's in the ingredients alongside chocolate and vanilla. Mighty flip! Oh heck, it's 11% in strength. I may be in stormy waters tonight.

Look at that. It's like looking into the abyss. Wait, does that mean it is looking into me?

Oh it's spicy!! A real after burner. And sweet, but dark muddy chocolate sweet. It's very nice. Ooft, in fact it's flipping marvelous. I want to chew it. Then start chewing the furniture making animal sounds. 8.5/10

I do like a Belhaven beer, I am looking forward to this one, aged in whisky seasoned Oak barrels. Jings, 6.5% I am going to be pie eyed tonight.

A lovely tawny gold. It fizzes like mad and then settles down like a faithful dog.

It's tasty too, a real creamy tone to it. It's very smooth. No bite at all but a mellow chilled out beer. I feel quite relaxed drinking it. You can get a hint of vanilla and spice. I think the vanilla is what lends it such smoothness. Raar, me happy! 7/10

A fantastic come back from last week's poor selection. I am going to get tore into more. I feel like a Viking, a Nordic God!! I must find my eye patch and sing crude shanty songs of Valhalla!

Happy weekend everyone!! Cheers!
