Some pints aren't particuarly special, but they're often tasty, and feel deserved. That was certainly the case with this week's Friday pint, which came after a morning in which the phone seemed to ring non-stop.(It actually only really rang a lot around 10am, when everybody else started work).
I'm actually quite pleased that Spring Sprinter has returned after it's debut last year. I didn't quite have enough of it as I would have liked. That said, I was slightly disappointed when I had this pint. I'm sure the Spring Sprinter I had last year was much more enjoyable, not that this years isn't an enjoyable drink.
Whilst drinking my pint I made my usual notes. The best I could come up with to describe the pint was that it seemed "grassy", in both aroma and taste.This led to me thinking how would I market this beer, and a phrase came into my head from an advert.
Look at it. Annoying isn't it. At least, it is to me. Refreshing I'm fine with, I like refreshing beers. It's the "easy taste" that bugs me. What exactly is "easy taste"? Is it something that doesn't challenge your tastebuds in anyway at all, like say, water?
I'm starting to sense that my Friday PInt sessions are becoming less about the actual pint, and more idea sessions for blog posts. As I finish making notes on the beer I have found myself continue to write things down. In a way, I think the purpose of The Friday Pint is working already.
