Popped into Bluewater this evening for some essential wargaming supplies: Citadel Graveyard Earth brown to colour match some old models and this.....
A demi-litre of Bombadier Burning Gold Ale from the Wells brewery.
Advertised as the Drink of England: Inspired by William Blake's 'Jerusalem', the unofficial national anthem and battle hymn of England.
You will note that it is 'alive with English passion'.
Cheers!

When I was in ad school a girl friend of mine used to play Rule Britannia in the studio / work area. With the volume set to 11. It's almost as if this ale would do the same when you open it up. Looks delicious :D
ReplyDeleteIs "alive with English passion" code for bottle conditioned ? It could bring your plumbing to life with a passion.
ReplyDeleteDear PX
ReplyDeleteAh yes, amplifiers that ho up to eleven rather than ten. Those were the days.

Dear Zzzzz
ReplyDeleteIndeed not. Bottle conditioned, along with real ale, is but a passing memory for me.

A nice pint. I just spent a week up in Masham, Yorkshire. A really nice village with two breweries, at least three decent pubs and a proper sweetshop.
ReplyDeleteDear Colin
ReplyDeleteAh Yorkshire, home of English brewing, although odly enough, we have the oldest brewery in England here in Kent.

You know, I thought there was something missing from my hobby supplies. Now I know what it is...
