Not deliberate, I assure you Gus, but I was busy sneezing, & the first 2 tablets were later than they should have been…

Sigh

For some reason I am unsure I quite understand, we seem to have three bottles of Black Tower with the date “2004” on them.

Is there even the slightest possibility they could be drinkable? Or usable for cooking?

Meanwhile, Brewdog are selling four-packs of Lost Lager for the cost of postage. (The actual link is horrible, so I’ll link to the story about it instead.)

I wouldn’t think so, Fishy, as the Alkyfrol content was not high enuff to keep it in good nick, & it was very sweet, so not great for cooking .

Open one - first find yer corkscrew, & pour it into a glass.It will prolly be very dark now,& have an odd sort of honey smell.Pour on the compost,or down the sink…

The answer to that would have been ‘no’ even in 2004.

I wouldn’t.

There’s plenty of vile fings wot I enjoys (Riga Black Balsam for example, or Surströmming); I do not look down on That Fish forrits strange preferences. (Especially as they include me.)

Quite right, Dunnock. Vile is as vile does…

The older stoneware type bottles were a real branding success…
