Beer Advent Calendar 2013 - December 14th

Afternoon.

It's party night tonight, so I've had to get today's beer out of the way before I go.  Free bar (though I very much doubt the pedigree of the drinks that will be available)!  I'm sure I'll manage.

I burnt my tongue a little on some hot pasta & sauce before having this beer.  I wish my mouth was more aspestos.

 Fullers - Black Cab 
I was very pleased to see this bottle come out of the bag.  I really like the design on the bottle, all black, white, dark grey and gold.  If I were designing a bottle for a traditional stout - that would be my palette.



The beer inside the bottle is not as luxurious as the colours on the outside.  It's got a very light body, it's practically a mild.  No head or lacing either.
It's not a bad drink.  It's actually an ideal 'quiet pint' for the winter (like Brains Dark), it's not too strong in flavour or ABV (4.5%) and as I mentioned, it's light in body.
Not very remarkable then, but still nice.

25/42

Today I got the average MPG from my new car above 40 this afternoon.  Score!
