I love Old Soeckled Hen. Do any of the British lads know of a beer called Old Jock? I had a bottle of it years ago, and would love to see if they're still as delicious as I remember them!
Alex i have had Old Jock, it used to be in small bottles but you can get 500ml bottles now quite a strong scottish ale at 6.7% Franziskaner weiss beer is my drink of choice at the moment, bottle conditioned and lovely!

A couple of months ago I wrote that I was drinking tea. Seems that the shyte that hit me half a year ago has mostly taken away my taste & liking for alkyholic beverages  Except that for some reason the occasional half pint of Guiness is enjoyable Tonight I am still drinking tea I do hope this affliction is not permanent

Well, well, where to begin.. Beers: Depending on my surroundings, company, and thirst, I rarely turn anything away. I enjoy the IPA's and various pumpkin-like things for a brief period of the year. Most of these offered by friends and gratefully quaffed by me. My brother offers me a Corsendonk Ale and I've hurt him rushing it out of his hand. However, my usual personal investment in beer is Guinness Extra Stout, sure to please year-round. Spirits: My dad was a Scotch man through and through, but not a rich man and he died before all this single malt craze made it all a bit silly. So he drank Ballantines, Cutty Sark, and whatever offered, all blends no doubt. I did not develop a taste for it as a young man but do enjoy Scotch now. I've enjoyed many single malts and somehow have become quite a collector without even trying as I get a lot as gifts. Not all that fond of the terribly peaty types, I served my friend a glass of Talisker and he said it tasted like the Sears Tire Store where he once worked smelled. My own investment in Scotch usual stops with Famous Grouse. I still keep a bottle of Ballantines around in honor of dad. I enjoy Irish, Bushmills, Redbreast, and Tullamore DEW especially among them. Thanks to Ed Dunham of this Forum I've become fond of a Maker's Mark Manhattan now and then. Also thanks to Ed there is a bottle of Dad's Hat Rye on hand. "As Comfortable As Dad's Old Hat." Lastly, befitting the season and with a nod to my long enlistment in the Coast Guard, I have been enjoying Dark and Stormys. Make them with a tumbler of ice, an ounce or two of black rum (Black Seal), a bit of lime juice, top it off with Crabbie's Ginger Beer (the alcoholic type). They go down too easy.

Martin Luther drank beer made at home, as was most beer back then. But he was a binge alcoholic- sadly, he would go months without excess drinking and then.. He said and wrote things when drunk that he was ashamed of, and felt terribly guilty about it. We all have our struggles. Avoiding cholera-infected water by drinking session beer saved thousands of lives in previous centuries. A Black Sheep grand slam currently sits in the larder: Riggwelter, IPA, Cask and Golden
