I'm at the Mikkeller beer festival in Copenagen and it's definitely worth a visit if anyone's on holiday in this direction. 225 beers on in this session, and over 500 across the weekend. Mikkeller, Pohjaler and Aben are the only ones here I've heard of, and I've only come across Aben because we went there last night
that sounds mega. I can see where manchester indy man got their inspiration from! Had this yesterday, not for the more traditional drinkers but incredible.
“Inspired by Blue Hawaiian cocktails, our latest smoothie sour was brewed with Staggeringly Good, and dedicated once again to anyone who’s ever asked; “Why can’t beer just taste like beer?”
Jam-packed with unfermented fruit for the freshest aromas and flavours, featuring ripe banana, juicy pineapple, coconut cream, and spirulina to create the iconic blue colour.
There’s stoopid, and then there’s staggeringly stoopid”

Agree. There's quite often more flavour in them and just easier/more refreshing to drink.
I get quite quickly bored of DDH beers and 6/7% beers.
Another that agrees. 4-5% is much more preferable. It does feel like 6% seems to be the norm these days although in France last week if I wanted craft from a supermarket it was 8% or more! I get quite quickly bored of DDH beers and 6/7% beers.

I have a fridge full of it. It is beer heroin. Just one at the start of the evening and I am fighting to stay awake, if I drink anything at all afterwards.It is quite normal for my local supermarkets to have shelves plump with every other beer, but one or two bottles of Chouffe blonde so far back that you have to be nine feet tall to reach it. It would otherwise be sold out I suspect.
I even saw a youth wearing a Chouffe teeshirt last week.
I don’t like things that I astutely determine are good being picked up upon by the hoi polloi. My children used to source it specially for my birthday. The only benefit now being that I no longer need to pay £5 per bottle.
Went to a craft brewery called Penrose in Geneva, Illinois a week ago. A very good selection of beers available there. My brothers and I had a few pints and some cans to take away…. $100 well spent
