Beer night out

David and I went to Akkurat yesterday to sample their extensive assortment of Belgian and British beers and ales.

We started with a Carolus Tripel, followed by a La Chouffe to the meal. Afterwards we each had a pint of real ale. Akkurat has a certificate on the wall saying that they’re at least as good as a British pub in pulling pints, so there was no doubt it was as close to the real thing that it was possible to get. Mine was a Sneck Lifter by Jennings.

I could use more practice in drinking British ales. The prescribed temperature is simply too high for my enjoyment, raised as I am on a diet of cold lagers. And the essential foodiness of the Sneck was a bit much after a full meal.

I’m looking forward to trying more, though.
