Mid Feb Half Turm

Well we are through to the last part on February and I have only been out once this month (I do mean drinking), it must be the time of year. I have however had quite a few canned beers so I will cover them here.

Young Ralph is up visiting along with Amber though, it is half term, so I have been drinking at home with them. What I have mainly been having is Speckled Hen, an old favorite but also these other cans.

The other big thing is, I got an MOT for the motorhome and it passed first time, it is getting old now about 18 years old. We are off away for a week from the first of March, we are only going to York but that is where I want to be for my birthday. The week after we are off to the Lakes for Dot's birthday but we are going to a log cabin for that week.

So let's get on with the beers.

Modern Times, Orderville IPA from USA

7.2% cloudy gold in colour with a poor head, fruity hoppy aroma and a bitter hop taste.

Modern Times, Fortunate Island Pale Ale from USA

5.0% cloudy deep gold in colour with a good head, hoppy aroma and a bitter hop taste.
