It's Saturday and that means it's time for beer!
But what do we have this week, salty, rude and bearded beers!! And an old classic to rock the place out.
Will I find my way home tonight? Oh hang on, I am already home. In that case I better fasten up the beer helmet and prepare for a wild ride!
So let's get started on these fine fellows. First up:
Rudie (Lip up fatty)
A peculiar moniker for this one, a Swedish import from the ska brewing company. It's rather tasty. Very light and lagery. Not bitter at all and quite refreshing. But ultimately it's nothing to write home about. I rather quickly glag it down to be ready for the next.
Beardo
When I saw the bearded fellow on the front I thought immediately of a fellow steemian I had the great pleasure to meet in the flesh at steemfest. @razvanelulmarin!! This one is for you!! It had better live up to the cheeky chap himself!!
The blurb claims.
Cultivating the finest facial furniture is a complex task. The discerning beard wearer deserves a tipple of hoppy intensity to complement their efforts. Cut through the fuzz with hits of a fruity citrus zing. An IPA for serious beardo's
It does pack a punch! 6% of a punch! It's a great beer. Slightly fruity, very hoppy and very more'ish. This is one I would get many times over. I wish I could send beer over borders cos raz, you deserve one of these!! Reluctantly I say, next!!
Salty Kiss
Salty Kiss? This is a name which makes my very manhood rear up like an offended orangutan. However, I swallow my pride and give it a pour.
It's excellent!! Malty and slightly sour, it's a fantastic mouthful! It slips down very easily which I just did not expect. Well well, I guess you can reach an old dog new tricks!!
And look at the amusing monster art!
Top marks to the Magic Rock Brewing company.
And now... The daddy.
The Trooper (in cahoots with Iron Maiden)
This is one of my favourite beers. A malty deep golden ale of a beer, it has it all. A great name, a great taste and knocks everything else for six. Also everytime you drink it you hear the opening riff of The Trooper guaranteed
Well that's the round up for this weekend. I am halfway through my night and thankfully have more of the trooper to heartily gallop down. Heck, a few more beers and I might end up galloping down the main street naked, shouting For Alba!!!
I hope you enjoy your weekend fellow steemians. Cheers!!!
Spectacular post - the headline alone forces you to read and drink :-)

I 'm a recovering Alcoholic and still enjoy reading your posts. It's the only way I get my drink on these days. If only I would have known in my drinking days there was a Beer that allowed me to hear the opening rifts of The Trooper while drinking it. Freaking Awesome!

They all look so awesome! I'm not a big fan of beer, but the special beers my boyfriend sometimes drink taste pretty good. I might just have an expensive beer taste...
I must have the pink one. Because pink.

And with that, this series has already surpassed the variety of local commercial beers here haha! The craft variety is rare, so there's not a lot.
Will there be any beer that you'll find repulsive or, at the very least, disappointing? While it's nice that you're having fun with it, it would be nice if a beer you're looking forward to drinking makes you go WTF, dude haha!
One has to wonder if Beardo tastes any different for people with beards hmmm... Good stuff, brother!

Haha, a very good point. Genuinely so far none of them have been bad. Te be fair there are few beers I do not like. Those ones tend to be the cheaper commercial ones. The first one of the batch Rude Boy was quite bland. I think thats probably the worst a beer could be unless it had a mix of horrifying flavours. The thing is though I am actually quite picky about which ones I choose and as these are ones I actually want to drink I think I am quite careful about choosing ones which I think I will enjoy but also look good!

I do, don't I? You know I've been contemplating whether or not I should buy it ice cream, or treat it to lunch one of these days. My point has been so good lately that I tend to overlook its value. I do hope it continues its streak. Who knows, it might be good for the rest of its life that it would go on to become canonized as a saint! A saint!!
How about you make a post full of beers you don't like some time? It could be a nice curve ball for people who expect you enjoying your brewskies :D

Yeek, It might be great for everyone else but rubbish for me!! I think I will stick with the beers that I like motif. Who knows, there is bound to be one that I really don't like one week!!!
I am glad that you are going to buy something ice cream or lunch but what, I have not the faintest idea!!!

Awww come on, man... Please? Pretty please with froth on top! Don't make me wish that a beer you will buy gives you great disappointment in the future. I could never do that to you, dude. Wish it for yourself :)
I'm talking about my point, which you have kindly praised. Oh look, it's giddy because of your compliment haha Who's the good point, yes you're the good point.

The Iron Maiden one is awesome! Wonder if there is a 'Can I play with madness' one. How would that one taste. And somehow only thinking about it already triggers music inside. Nice. :-)

That would be excellent if they had a whole range related to songs! They did have another Trooper one, it was a dark porter. It was nice but not as good as the original!

Oh Man, I see a whole marketing idea there... Branded brew of your favorite band, the ones to match the songs!
Do I even need to mention JLP...? :-p

It is a fantastic idea, as long as the beers matched up to the songs themselves!!
Hoho, noooooooooooooo!
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Hahaha, yes they have to match up, of course, well, to a certain point!
Just to give you a quick example, where we definitely would want it to be more like a figure of speech...
Although the lines "...You're poison runnin through my veins
You're poison, I don't wanna break these chains... " do suit a good Brew! It might even be considered a Steem Blockchain song...
Hm, somehow I feel there is possibly some kind of Steemy trailing thing in this. Dunno yet for sure.

Here are a couple of the beers that I've been enjoying this evening:
"Gotenius porter" was fantastic - it tastes strongly of coffee and is also potent at 6%
To be honest, I picked up "psychedelic popcorn" because of the name and as the say "never judge a beer by its cover" - it's a sharp and sour IPA; not my cup of tea!

I love dark coffee-esque ones!! To be fair I would have done exactly the same and picked up psychedelic popcorn as well just for the name! Nice selection though!
