I'm a lot less enthusiastic about bottled beer than I used to be. My pantry forever had a revolving range of beers which I'd drink alone or with friends.
These days, mostly bottled beer feels just a little too fizzy. Also, since I go to pubs far more often than I used to, I guess I just get my beer fix in the place it was intended to be drunk.
Nevertheless, with a busy weekend ahead, a houseguest we don't know very well at all, and the prospect of not have much opportunity to got the pub I thought it would be as well to augment the supply of wine with some bottled beer and some cider (there's also plenty of water, juice, ginger beer and tonic water, I hasten to add).
It was really hard to choose. Ocado had a phenomenal range of old favourites and beers I've never heard of. How the hell do you choose?
Well, I stuck to beers I know and love in their draught form, from breweries I can hopefully trust not to screw things up too badly in the bottling process. So I've got Betty Stoggs, Citra (Oakham's version) and TEA. Cheers!
