Just get it chilled cold enough and drink it before it has a chance to warm up. If you drink it quick enough it’s just fine with Ice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed there's a bag of ice in our freezer and I've seen folk on the telly adverts have ice in their cider, is that summat that real people do ? Wife seems to put ice in her wine these days but I've put that down to menopause. All a bit effete this ice in cider, but that’s how it is these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaisyHWanderer Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 The more ice you have in, the colder it is and the slower it melts and therefore the cooler your drink is HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestTurnip Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Katy out of stock at Tesco so OG HAZY has become the standard drink here. Might end up in a debtor's prison if we regress to Victorian times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane57 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Another trip to Morrisons today - stocked up on some more Northern Monk, some Brewdog and a couple of the Vermont Sessions (Brewdog&NM collab). Top notch selection and very reasonable pricing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitestar Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I got one of them kegs (Doom bar) in the early lockdown days when it was grab what you can. Apart from probably damaging the fridge the main problem was actually getting some in a glass, the walls and ceiling all enjoyed it and eventually with half of it remaining and getting quite flat i maybe managed 2.5 pints out of 5 litres is it?

Members Rudy Posted June 5, 2020 Members Share Posted June 5, 2020 Right I’m in. Off for two days Picked up some OG and some Leffe. Was going to try a 9% brew dog, a coffee stout. Nothing good would come of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
