Black Magic Beers
Honk honk, it's Saturday and Saturday is good for just one thing. Beers!! Raaar!!
I have had a couple of days off and feel like a stick of dynamite that is sweating in an old miners hand. And that my friends, is not a euphemism for penisery!
What a devil of a week it has been. Speaking of the devil, this week is all about the devilishly dark stouts. The kind of dark brooding brews that slip into your glass like an oil-slicked otter.
We like those otters very much.
So, why am I messing about talking all the gibberish? There are beers to be drunk dammit.
Two very special beers too. One full of twisted black magic and the other... Well, it is one that thinks very highly of itself indeed.
So, let's get to it. The first on our list is the one and only.
Black Magic!! I love a bit of magic, black or otherwise. Quick, someone pull a rabbit out of my hat. Or at least stick a hand in there. You never know what you will find.
This isn't just a slippery satanic stout though. Oh no. It's a Biscotti breakfast stout!
BISCOTTI!! I love them!
Let's get this thing poured!
The inky stain of satan in a glass is the only way to describe this beauteous sight. It's a beezer of black nectar topped with a big frothy, creamy head.
It smells rather nice too. Perhaps it's casting a spell on me! Let's do it.
Man that was a biscuity beery delight. Really smooth and rounded. Lots of creamy vanilla goodness with a good malty backbone. I like it. I like it a lot!
Give this black magic 8.5/10 booms!!!
Top hootenanny!
The next surely has the finest name of a stout known to man, the inimitable...
HA, I can't stop humming that bloody song now! But it is worth pointing out that I actually do think this stout is about me! Wahhhhhh!!
Not only is it finely named but it is also a strong wee bastard. 11% eh! Danger town!
Let's see who's vain...
Man alive, this is quite the peculiar looking beast. It is a morass of bubbles and looks like the dusky black froth of the Irish Sea at night.
Which, as I am sure you might be aware, isn't the most appetising of things.
Boak!? This thing seemed to promise all the good stuffs but delivers nothing but sickly saccharin nonsense. It is so horridly fake that it is barely worth watering the plants with!?
Boo hiss, 3/10 booms and those are for the fine name!
Well. A fine tasting, the first romping in over the second. I have enjoyed myself muchly same it's a pleasure to be back on the chain!
Cheers!
Black Magic beer looks so good that I could drink it on and on and on...Fun weekend, friends, parties, dance, beers...what else ould you want...?
It really is a fine one. I could be drinking that on and on and on myself!
Cheers Boomy!
Welcome back, and what a fine evening to return, with beers in hand. I have a couple of those posh 3 for a fiver cans, but opted for much paler bevvies.
Hopefully you've still got one of the first which you can enjoy whilst ball-washing with the 2nd, cheers!
Both happily and sadly I have two of both! So I am on the second of the first and I might donate the second of the second to my brother , heh heh!!
Cheers dude, enjoy them pale mofos!!
Two of each was the sensible option - a donation, so kind! Cheers!
I know, my kindness runneth over!! He will no doubt tell me it is amazing and I will wonder if I just got a shonky can or something, LOL!
Shonky is a fine word - I use it often to describe my coding :D
I use it often to describe your average contractor developer coding, hehe :0D

I do wonder if a beer tastes that shit whether anyone taste tested it, instead they figured hey lets do a woke name then we don't need to even be sure it is beer and why there are no warning labels that say the beer is only fit for a small % of humans, the same people who eat weird fancy stuff at restaurants instead of just ordering the damn steak as they should.
It is exactly like that. The worst of it is the hit and miss of it. I have had ones with ridiculous names which have been amazing and others like this which have been twoddle. Some people can't see past the marketing and if it claims to be good then they think it is good. I like to see past all that nonsense!
So glad to see you back. That Black Magic beer looks like a great selection for a Halloween Party, which is coming up soonish! Wish it had the 11% behind it, but hey, that can is bangin' lol
Cheers lass!! I had really hoped that the 11%er would be the top one but alas, it was shite!!
It's alright, we'll make do!
It's what we do!! Lol!
I would have thought 2 swigs of the last one would have been enough, hehe.., did you think it might get better on the final one?
It always pays to be absolutely 100% sure! :0D
Haha, before you give it to the flowerbed!
It's more organic than delivering it to the kitchen sink! I just hope it doesn't kill my plants!
Ugh I hate that saccharin taste and how dare they screw up a beer where they stole Carly Simon's song's name for it. Damn them. At least you had one good one.
It's a great name isn't it! I was so very disappointed it was rubbish. I often our the ones I think might be amazing second. Lol. Oh well!
Ha ha, the best beers are the inspiration for the finest gibberish 🍻
I'm not a big fan of the dark ones, and ever since I got this gut condition 6 years ago ales in general have sent my system outta whack. Tried them again on my birthday and it was three days of stupid gastro-symptoms afterwards.
At least lager is still ok, but it's hard trying to find decent lagers. I mainly stick to German pilsners... or at a stretch Amstel.
Carlsberg... made in Scunthorpe.... probably not the best lager in the world 🤣

I used to quite like Amstel. Now for a run of the mill beer i go for Estrella. Yum. I used to hate dark beers but the ones I started trying were so unlike admit I had ever tried that I was sold. Still love a good lager too though!!
The mental sound of "Boak?!" cracks me up for no reason whatsoever XD
I tell you it cracks me up too. It's so common here but just so perfect!!
Cheers 🍻 where are those from?

Cheers! These ones were both English!
I can get behind the idea of breakfast stout. As for the fake second beer, If you ever make it stateside and visit the west coast, I recommend Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout and Arrogant Bastard Ale, two of the very few reasons I don't want to see California drop into the Pacific when the Big One hits.
I have tried arrogant bastard! Splendid stuff!! Costs an arm and a leg over here, lol. I have heard of Rasputin too, the Imperial stout that is. I will keep an eye out for it, there are more and more American beers coming to my beer shop!
Those video's are just awesome :)
My favourite bit. It's hard to not taste them before filming but its worth it, means I have to judge quick! :O)
Great job sir meesterboom, you can't keep a good man down!
Hehe, that's what I like to think :0)
It's very true!
I hope it taste devilish good 😇
Why yes it did!! :0)
