It's my birthday weekend!!! Hurrah for the passing of another year!! It might not be my birthday today but this weekend is a celebratory cow and I know just how to milk them cows!

Don't worry really though, there ain't no milk on the table tonight. Instead, only the finest of beers!! Well, hopefully!

I think I have a couple of bangers tonight. Good bangers that is. One of which claims to be a down and dirty beer then the other a variation on an old favourite of mine. The fine Mexicake from Tempest! This one is aged in rum barrels. A variant I have never tried.

Well never mind all this chatter. To the beer!!

Dirrty Hands this is called. The label claims it as a barrel aged, filthy, sticky beer.

Well that's me sold. It would have been nice if they had said what kind of barrel it was aged in right enough. We will soon see!

Well it's dark and I must say it looks sticky, a bit like that time I slept in a nuns bed. But I digress.

It's quite nice, a little harsh but with a nice hint of singed licorice and dark chocolate. I think whatever barrel it was aged in hasn't managed to mellow it any. It stays harsh all the way to the bitter end.

I like it though despite its sandpaper abrasiveness hurting my innards, 6.5/10 booms!

Not quite the birthday extravagance I was hoping for. Bring out the next!!

A chilli beer, Chipotle chilli no less! I love the regular version of this stuff and tried a barrel aged one before which actually wasn't so good. It wasn't a rum barrel though. As everyone knows, if you want to improve something just add rum!

So, let me at it!!

Flipping heck, behold it's awesome majesty. Black as Satan's bollocks!! It looks amazing and therummy smell that's pouring off it is giving me a birthday delight in the down-belows!

Don't let me down oh mexicake!!

It's incredible! It's massive! Like an asteroid made of dark malt and roasted chipotle chilli has crashed into a sea of rum and I am on the shore drowning under a splendid tsunami of gorgeousness!! 10 booms, 10!! How could it be anything else!!

Awesome, I am off to get honking drunk and celebrate my birthday weekend in style.

Cheers!!

Sort:  

wait...

Wait.

Wait!

WAIT!!!

HOLD YOUR HORSES!

Do you mean to tell me that a rum barrel Mexicake belongs to the vaunted hall!?

Well, slap my tits and call me Methuselah! Why the hell don't we rum barrel everything!? I'm going out to the store to buy a couple. There are ketchup packets and water here that need new containers. I remember Mexicake very well because it was when Sabeerday made its official debut. I still think of that moment quite fondly. But, for now... FIESTA!

Lol, I have already rum barreled the milk for the coffee. Sure it tastes a little weird but also a little awesome!!

I have been a huge fan of the mexicake ever since it's awesome first outing. Top chipotle notch!!

Happy Birthday. Have a great weekend. Stephen

Cheers @stephenkendal! I will do my best!

Happy birthday brother. That Mexicake sounds absolutely delicious. At 12% you'd only need a six pack to get drunk.

Lol, I have had three and feel like falling over!! Cheers man!!

Happy happy Boom!

Loved those tasting vids - your descriptions are crackin xx

Hehe, cheers lass!! I like to shake my words about a bit!!! :0)

Hey...cheers mate!

hahaha :)

You wont let me forget that one will you!

Not a day over 41 - yonks more left in the tank. Although, not if you carry on drinking brews clocking in at 10/11%!

I'm not sure about the first, i think you were in a generous mood with the score and it seems like this ale could be tricky after 2/3 glasses. The 2nd though sounds very appealing, and 3/4 of those (which you may have consumed by now) should get the party started - ready for your real birthday.

Cheers boom, have a good one!

Having a smashing one! I am a bit cock-eyed already!

Yeah, the first one was probably rubbish but I was feeling generous indeed! The chipotle loveliness is lovely!

Old basssa ;OD

Those are some hefty percentages, I am not surprised! When does the swearing begin?

Ha, you should hear it here. Swear central!!

hahaaa that Elvira sure has some mad skills....what a Happy Birthday edition of Beer Saturday that was....10/10 for your celebrations :D Happy Happy Birthday!!

Elvira, it came out of nowhere and I thought, man, its been a while since I though of her!

lol just chalk it up to the caliber of the beer!

Like most things in life!! Hehe!

Hope you had a good one!

I did indeed, thank you!!!

lol! sir meesterboom I think that second beer made you a little too happy! lol.

You can't be too happy!!

I’ve never seen a 10/10 booms! Where do you get the quirky beers from? Have a great night drinking birthday mexicake!

I have a special shop that sells the most amazing things!! Wayhay!!

So you openly admit you are a middle aged cheating bastard lol. Happy Birthday anyway and you may as well make a week of it, 3 days is just not enough. Do you remember a product called Salusa 45 or something. Now you are officially an old bullet and welcome to the club.

Haha, that's me to a T!!

I don't remember that product so i can claim a bit of youth back!!

And cheers, i shall be a happy chap I am sure on the day!!

Lol a beer called 'Dirty hands'has got to be all kinds of wrong

I kinda thought the same but thought it might have been genius!!

Better for your birthday to be passing than you! Happy birthday bro, and don't tip any cows!

If there was a cow to be had nearby it would be getting tipped!! Hehe, cheers!

Cheers with dirrty haands!

Hehe, cheers with them!!! :0D

Happy Birthday Weekend! Drink your ass off 😂😂😂

Cheers mate! I'm going for it!!!:0D

Have a Beery Happy Birthday. :-)

I will, cheers Ace!!!

just as well to have a 10/10 on The Weekend.
try and add a few of those to the stockpile in the shed.
most necessary if you have a low scoring weekend and a bad taste in the mouth.

I have quite a few in the garage!! Forward thinking!

Happy BIrthday Boom- nothin' like a 10 to start things off right!

That was my thinking entirely!!

Happy birthday weekend! Glad you managed to get a 10/10 beer for it 😆

I'm while flat and retrieved too, cheers!!!

Feliz cumpleaños antes podíamos festejarlo en Venezuela ya no que lo disfrutes

Muchas Gracias amigo!!

Haha, that's the sole m while I have today!

You are just like my child.. we do not have one day for her birthday. Happy bday and I hope the year brings you lots of joy. Have a good one and I think the beer went down well.... just wonder how the birthday boy feel today.

I feel Magnificent, like a king!!

How to celebrate ones day of birth?

Like an out off its skull blootered skunk, massively drunk, so afterwards, the questions remains: "What the fuck just happened!? Why is it all of a sudden bleeding monday again...!?

Half way your forties? Well, congrats young man!

Have a blast!

Cheers, the second one just called out to me, hm how strange.

Cheers mate!

Even today the second one is calling out to me!!

Can imagine it does!

So much so that as soon as the kids are down then so is it!! :0)

Enjoy mate! :-)
Here I'll close down the weekend with a Leffe Triple.

Cheers ☝️😜😎
