Cancer won today so **** cancer - Dad kicked the bucket early this a.m. after fighting stomach cancer for a couple of years!
We hadn't talked in a long time, but he did contribute DNA so I'll have a beer in his behalf.
Cheers!!

Sullivan’s is no stranger to the Beermeister32 bierhoard, I’ve had a few of these tucked away for some time. What a great opportunity to crack one open for my British/Scottish/Irish beer drinking project! I drank one of these about a month or two ago and it was AAA+++ fantastic, and that’s no taradiddle!
Of all the Irish Reds I’ve had, I think this is my favorite, nice amount of head, great lacing, fantastic flavor, clean - and not at all cloying, unlike some of the domestic clones. This is a terrific drinking Irish Red, and I think all of you will love this.
Nice reddish color, 5% ABV, advertised as having some fruitiness that I’m not really picking up, just a great malt presentation and restrained hopping, Sullivan’s has been brewing great beers like this in Kilkenney, Ireland since 1702. Now I get the 14.9 oz size – fits my glass perfectly, and we know how the Irish feel about short pours… Fisticuffs! So good, I’ve already finished it GONE and I’ve only been writing a few minutes! Sláinte !!!
That sounds delish!!HB Hazy IPA. McKenzie and Nectaron dry hopped. Omega Cosmic Punch yeast. Salud!
So sorry for your loss TG. Hope for speed healing for you and your family.Cancer won today so **** cancer - Dad kicked the bucket early this a.m. after fighting stomach cancer for a couple of years!

Fuller’s also changed all their bottles. They used to have nice fancy bottles. I have about 3 cases of their old fancy bottles. I use them mainly for bottlng barelywine.Photographing these beers can be a challenge unto itself – I swear, I poured this beer as hard as I could to raise some kind of a head for the camera – and darned near nothing! Drinking this, carbonation level is fine. It just won’t raise much of a head, that wort must undergo must be one heck of a protein rest, huh? Sorry folks!
Fuller’s London Pride is an old-school favorite with a few surprising side notes - Looks like Fuller’s is now a product of Asahi UK and is brewed by Griffin Brewery located in Chiswick, London, England. Nothing stays the same does it? Asahi? And imported into the US by Paulaner USA. Wow.
Fuller’s London Pride is a tasty amber ale brewed at 4.7% ABV. Not watery, but this beer seems to lack the body of some of the other English and Irish brews I’m comparing them to, and of course the lack of head and zero lacing. All things that I love, but are a bit minimized here. Clarity would look great in a big 1L paneled stein! Cheers!
