Tolly English Ale (Greene King)

Tolly English Ale (Greene King)
Name: Tolly English Ale
Label: "Tolly Cobbold - Full flavoured red - Brewed in Bury St Edmunds"
Brewery: Greene King
ABV: 2.8%

Rating: "This fine amber ale has been brewed using a complex mix of hops to offer balanced bitterness with strong tropical notes. All the flavour you would expect from a great English ale but at only alc. 2.8% vol."  Hang on... they seem to be saying here that low alcohol is a good thing...? Surely someone at the brewery has taken leave of their senses, you may be thinking. No! It's a brilliant session beer!

Game: Current sitrep on XCOM:
  1. my squad is awesome (they've got plasma weapons, mind control, armour where I can pick the colour and everything) 
  2. only three countries have left the council 
  3. all available satellites have been deployed (very important) 
  4. I need to buy some better aircraft 
  5. I need to change everyone's armour from pink to something more manly (it was funny for one mission but I think they're getting cross with me).

Indeed. Pink is a fine colour but the marine with the neck the width of a cooling tower said it makes them a bit of an easy target on the battlefield unfortunately.

Quick, get up! More beer incoming!
