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).

Lager and lime

In Salou we found a ready mixed lager and lime, now we have had these before but this is the first one that was drinkable.

Damm, Damm Lemon from Spain.

3.2% it does what it says on the can, it's a lager and lime and at a good price.   It tastes exactly like what you would get in any pub in England if you asked for a lager and lime, not for me at all but Dot likes it.

Ambar

The second beer form Spain was practically the same as the first one, but I think I preferred it, it could have been slightly less fizzy than the other one.

La Zaragozana, Ambar Especial from Spain

5.2% gold colour with no head, sweet malt aroma and slightly sweet fizzy taste.

Back Home Again

Back home for a while, so I should be able to catch up on my beer reviews.

Here is one from our trip to Spain, as I have said before, the beer in Spain is not the best in the world but in the heat over there, some are very drinkable.
Damm, Estrella Damm from Spain
5.4% gold colour with no head, sweet aroma and slightly sweet fizzy taste.

Under the Weather

Not feeling too good, so no beers for a couple of days but I felt I should wright something.

Did you know that in some European countries, you can get a beer with your Mcdonald's.

Back Home From Spain

Back home from Spain safely, the beer over there is not the best in the world but I do have some new beers to review.  Also as soon as I get time and have a rest, I will do the day by day blog of the whole trip.

For now, this is what Mick got up to.

AR-MEN, Blonde

Had a couple of Leffe, and then a new beer, another one from Fathers Day last year.
AR-MEN, Blonde from France
5.0% slightly hazy cold colour with a thin head, sweet hop aroma, slightly sweet citrus taste, quite good.
That's until after our trip to Spain.

Nothing to Report

Well that was the first Saturday night for years, with no new beers, plenty of good beers but nothing new. Maybe I will get something different in Spain next week, we will have to see.
