If you know me or of me, you will know I like beer. Over the last few years I have been collecting photos of every new beer I have.
I now have over 2,000 individual beers photographed and have realised that many beers that I assumed I have photos of, I haven't.

This blog will be therefore be an account of my quest for new beers to photo and how I enjoyed them (or not).

Beers during Ralph's visit.

As Ralph was drinking his usual Black Label and as I was serving him, as he had a swollen left leg (the doctor recons that he has Gout), I had have a few of my own. Only all of mine were strange beers not the eazy beer he was drinking. I think we were drinking for five nights so I must have had a few new ones, lets see.

The hospital also recon that young Ralpe has Gout, anyway on his last night here, we had a Parmo as we usually do. If you have not had a Parmo, or do not know what a Parmo is, that is a real shame, you can look it up on Wikipedia, it is gorgeous.
