The weather has been too miserable for the past two days to attempt to brave the elements in order to restock my beer, but I have opened a bottle of Californian red wine, one which I received as a gift from my brother.

This wine - Fog Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 - has been opened and has been busily breathing away to itself for the past few hours.
That is a good choice, I have several bottles of it in my collection. I will have to dust off one of the bottles for tomorrow. Enjoying my victory Guinness at the expense of AFB, lol!

Actually, it is excellent; it is by far the nicest Californian wine I have ever had the privilege of sampling, savouring and sipping.

Enjoy your Guinness.

I had never heard of it, but a bottle was in a crate that my adored brother (Decent Brother on these threads) sent me as a Christmas present.

Yeah it’s Spaten ( German dark ) and tried it for the first time. Not my kind really.. too malty sweet ( molasses perhaps ) taste that just annoyed me, for lack of a better description lol!

Should’ve picked up the tried and tested Oktoberfest instead 😌

That sounds like perfect Christmas drinking, but, for the rest of the year, other beers may work better.
