Cheeky beer


Great weather yesterday afternoon, so we decamped to the garden to play some cricket and cracked open a couple of beers. This one from my local craft brewery Siren collaborating with US firm Green Cheek (Los Angeles) blew my socks off. A fabulous old skool West Coast IPA, citrus for days, bitter with a glorious soft mouthfeel an ABV of 7% but not so you'd notice. This example is version one of the beer which came out earlier in the year, since then Siren have re-brewed the beer and tweaked the hops slightly swapping Sabro for El Dorado, should be getting some delivered today so it'll be interesting to see how that's worked out, hopefully version two is even better although it's hard to see how.


Here's our makeshift wicket, defensive shots only of course, our neighbors wouldn't appreciate too many cover drives, anyway, I'd forgotten how much I enjoy bowling and trying to work out where best to place the ball to get the most random bounce, great fun.
