Nobody in the family Jennings knows what a gentian root tastes like, so everyone who tried this focussed on the bitterness and the orangeness, to varying amounts of acclaim. A contentious one, but ultimately an approval for me!

I'm in no way averse to thick sours. I'm annoyed at sours that don't develop a head until you've wandered off to find your wife, and that head spills all over your dinner.
This is just a mango smoothie. If that works for you, this is a perfect pint.

In before midnight if I type quick!
Speaking of snakebite-like beers, this looks the part. But tastes tart like vinegar, not like a sour. Not necessarily in a bad way, but just not what I'm looking for.

The way I'm basing my Bad Nek Rocket Knights is by sticking a flying base to a 75mm oval base. Tried that just now, and when I pressed the round all the way down, the superglue produced this delicate fern pattern underneath the round.

Does anyone have any experience with the Fields of Slaughter tournaments in Birmingham? Much as I'd like to do one of their doubles for next year... I once booked a ticket for one, then needed to drop immediately, and they blanked me when I requested a refund with 6 months notice

Dark berry sours have a narrow line to walk between being luxuriantly rich and sweet, and just tasting like a pint of Snakebite in the student union. This one comes perilously close to Snakebite, but has enough going on to pull it back. Lovely stuff!

Let's make Pete's dreams come true, and turn #WarhammerWrapped into a thing!
Events: 10 (was aiming for 12)
New Maneaters: 2 Ogres, 21 Gnoblars, 5 Ogroids
Highlight: Tracksuit GT: scored a 3-2 and 2nd Coolest Army
Lowlight: No 1st Coolest Army; 0-5 at PubHammer Open 3 (damn those dice)

To make this work, look at the picture, or read the ALT text. See or read what it looks like...
...then know it ALSO TASTES LIKE A CIDER.
THIS IS JUST A CAN OF CIDER.
Very very tasty though, absolutely worth a go. Just not really a beer.

As I work out the approach to opsec on my new Coolest Army Project, I can at least share the first rank-and-file guy... a "Blood Knight" champion for Da Bad Nek Banditz.
Planning to run them as a Crimson Keep army, because they work with my smooth-brain Destro tactics of "go that way".

Ah yes, the first appearance of a beer made with... more traditional methods. Which infallibly means it has some vinegary notes, which this does. For being brewed with actual cherries, the cherries aren't very pronounced. Beats an IPA, I guess?

So to my palette, "brewed with grape + fluff" reads as "this is a grape soda float". I'm not a big grape soda guy, but I found it tasty, it has a interesting texture, and overall enjoyed it. Since I'm never going to Texas, I'll never have it again!

Sadly, I fear the Maneater Legion has finished its 2025 tournament season; unless I schlep it to Wycombe, to Worcester, or to Ipswich with a conscript for doubles, there just aren't any viable tournaments left this year.
Fortunately, I'm immediately switching to beer blogging now advent is on us! 😂

Where all my usual bitz suppliers have failed, my opponent from Game 3 is coming through; I'm getting his leftover Bull Centaur sprues to make this dream a reality!
So I don't want to start a Hellsmiths army.
But I always want to make more Maneaters.
And they're apparently making it easy for me...

Finished the weekend with a good solid thrashing from some vampires, which reassured me about the efficacy of a Crimson Keep army in the new year.
Ended the weekend placed 19/26, and bereft of any trophies, but a good time was had by all. I may well return to Milton Keynes...

Day 1 in Milton Keynes isn't going terribly well, so please keep those 200 likes from a bot army in the bank for now.
Game 1 was an exercise in making silly mistakes, while Game 2 was an exercise in whiffing all the Go Turn rolls.
Also the signal here is atrocious.

It's that time of the year, where I stop talking about Ogres every few days and start talking about sour beers every day!
Only the one calendar this year; we don't have 2020 play money anymore, and that Sonic calendar annoyed me too much.
