Leffe Blonde.
It might not count as I’m surfing in Devon so no school for me.

Blue Moon for me. Reminiscent of the mighty Kronenberg Blanc.

Sadly missed.

Can't do pics, but a nice couple of pints of local goodness in celebration of the pupils not leaving the exam hall in tears after their biology exam. Maths colleagues did similarly last week- but to drown their sorrows after what was reported to me as the hardest GCSE maths exam in years!

My homebrewed black IPA, from the taps I installed in my kitchen

(Though that is from a bottle, the tap pour has a much smoother head).

I also only drink about 1/3rd of a pint since it's 8%

Cheeky little G&T with a slice of lime, for me.

This is where living in Sweden comes in very handy. Folköl is great for a school night and, because of the lower alcohol content and (usually) more micro/local focus, you can have one or two without waking up feeling like hell the next morning.

I had one of these last night... It was nice.

Aldi 1079 Project. It's not fancy as many above, but for a little taste on a Tuesday night it's perfect. It's also dirt cheap.

Paper 2 will resume normal service, I'm sure. 🙂

My lad was more aggrieved that it missed out huge chunks of the syllabus which he'd spent weeks revising.

No beer for me. Helping with Romeo and Juliet angst.

If in pub, whatever session bitter/ale is on tap

If at home, I like Wychwood Fire Catcher, as a bonus its usually £1 a go in Morrisons.

Although, truth be told, more normally I have a fun size bottle of cheap lager for a weeknight drink.

Got a 2 pint takeout of Thornbridge am/pm last night to help me through groundwater revision. Proper tasty. Also local micropub is awesome.

usually whatever is on sale at morrisons, there is usually a £1 bottle and that often does the trick, or something from Aldi (might try that 1079, thanks Lunge)

I'm starting to mix in non-alco beers as well, Nanny state and Erdinger blue usually work for me

If I have a beer on a school night it's usually a session IPA, something like an Oakham Citra. But I've got a real hankering for a couple of stubby bottles of lager tonight. Maybe I'll pick up a pack of Biere D'or from Tesco on my way home.
