Found this beauty deep in Dark Fruit territory today, lovely IPA at 5% - goes down a little too easily?

A new Belgian for once - Vleteren Blond, 12% Oak-aged.
This beer is to die for. Probably the best honey beer I have ever tasted. Probably? Make that definitely, by some distance.

Taking inspiration from @sage, I'm currently sucking down a Gulden Draak 9000. Followed by an Erdinger Pikantus.
Also, building up my stock, I've just put in orders from Belgiuminabox, BeersofEurope and web-bier.de.
If covid-19 is going to take me, I'm going to make sure that I'm pickled for posterity.
 

turkey croquettes, stuffed with sage & onion, camembert, stilton and cranberries.

Coincidentally, the Memsahib is cooking pork shops tonight. My contribution is the aubergine left over from the moussaka the other day, so I've knocked up Aubergine Parmigiana as a side dish. Not baked yet...

i have a plan

They have it in stock at Long Eaton which i guess is where your deliveries come from, but not in the Derby Tescos

Public Service Announcement II - LIDL.
The Van Steenberge boxes are back in stock from today.
Gulden Draak, Gulden Draak 9000, Piraat, Piraat Tripel Hop, Bornem Dubbel and Bornem Tripel in a box costing £12.

Went to Tesco at Heanor. My first time in a shop since March 18th.
They don't stock it there 
I bought some oven chips and went home in high dudgeon. Which was odd because I'd arrived in a Ford Focus..

Glad you enjoyed it. My wife loves it - not her absolute favourite but it's up there, certainly in her top 5. What I really do like about it is the silky mouthfeel from the oats - I'm more of a dark beer person, but it's one of the tripels I really do keep coming back to time after time because it is so smooth.

A couple of imperial stouts downed since finishing work at 5pm. I really need to learn to drink more slowly!
Both from Vocation brewery in Hebden Bridge, one was coconut & maple syrup aged in bourbon barrels, the other chocolate & banana aged in rum barrels, 11.6% & 12% respectively ?
Not world beaters but still a sweet treat. 5 cans of each left to drink.
 

Well, that's Breaking Bad done and dusted. Absolutely superb and the person who said "It gets better and better" - you are so right.
So, what to watch next? I think the missus is keen on stuff like Spooks and anything John Le Carre inspired, so it might be The Americans for the next mega-binge watch. Any other suggestions? We have both Prime and Netflix.

Why not give Fargo a go? both the film and the series. I can recommend both.

Better Call Saul - the obvious follow-up to Breaking Bad and fills in a lot of the back stories.....(oh and the Breaking Bad film "El Camino")

Bartons garage in Chilwell selling real ale from the barrel at weekends 5-6 choices. 
2 or 4 pints container. £3 a pint. Had Oakham citra last week. Thornbridge Jaipur yesterday. 

Tomorrow, we knock back the first of the Tesco-bought Tripel Karmeleit 75 cl bottles. 4 more on order for next Thursday.

Having worked at the Stock Exchange in the run-up to dematerialised settlement ('Big Bang'), I can honestly say no, I want nothing to do personally with investing in stocks and shares.
