Beer Diary - Sour Peach

[日本語は後半にあります]

I'm participating in The #BeerSaturday Challenge - Week 363.
Thanks @detlev for hosting the fun event every week!

Last weekend was very chilly. It started raining heavily as I head out for a walk in the morning and of course, it stopped as soon as I got home...😑
I was craving a dark beer in the afternoon but my eldest daughter came home with a beer for me so I gratefully accepted. She knows that I write for Beer Saturday.

She's great at finding interestingly designed beer cans.
However... hmmmm…Neon Panther Sour Peach??? Is this even beer?
Remembering the beer from last week…. I'm starting to wonder why my family can't buy me a simple regular beer.
Anyway, I opened the can with some skepticism. As soon as I opened it, there was a pleasant peach aroma. It said "sour," so I wondered if it would be both sour and sweet. I don't like sour or sweet beers.

I took a sip...

Hmmmm…This is quite sour... but not sweet, and I kind of like it...
After sipping the peach flavour and aroma, it leaves a beer scent in my nose. So it’s a beer! I found it fascinating and kept saying how interesting it was as I drank.

Radlers are a bit too sweet for me, but after reading @go-kyo’s recent post, I learned that Beer balls which are made with beer and some sort of carbonated beverage serviced with ice cubes are not sweet. It made me think that mixing beer with different flavoured sodas is quite interesting.

Here are some Japanese stickers my daughter gave me. Beer stickers have my name on them of course! A colleague of hers brought them back from Japan for her.
If they were vinyl stickers, they could go on my water bottle, but why washi paper? Where should I put paper stickers? It feels like a waste if they get damaged right away... but not using them feels wasteful too...😅

This is the beer I had last night. When I got home, everyone had already finished dinner and was eating watermelon. I usually don’t drink on weekdays because I get home late…I can’t sleep if I take alcohol too close to my bedtime…but my husband bought some Budweiser, so I had one. It’s made from rice and barley. It was a light and refreshing beer, perfect for a weekday.

And that was for this week's Beer Saturday.

Have a wonderful day!

今週もBeerSaturdayに参加します。

The #BeerSaturday Challenge - Week 363
@detlevさん、毎週楽しいイベント開催ありがとうございます。

先週末はとても寒く、散歩に出かけたら雨がザアザア降ってきて、家に着いたら止むという…😑
体が冷えたので黒ビールが飲みたいくらいだったのですが、家でバタバタしていたら、長女ちゃんがビールを買ってきてくれたので有り難くいただくことにしました。
さすが長女ちゃん、面白いデザインのビールを買ってきます。

けれど…むむ？…ネオンパンサーサワーピーチ？？？
ビールなのかこれ？
先週に続き、もう〜うちの家族は普通のビール買って来れんのか？なんて思いながら缶を開けました。
開けるとピーチの良い香りがしました。
サワーって書いてあるけど酸っぱくて甘いのかな〜 酸っぱいビールも甘いビールも好きじゃないんだけどな～

…とブツブツ言いながら一口…

ん？これは結構酸っぱい…けど甘くなくて、結構好きな味かも…
ピーチの味と香りを飲み込むとビールの香りが鼻に残ります。面白い！面白い！と言いながら飲みました、笑

ラドラーは少々甘いですが、先日の@go-kyoさんの投稿 で、ビアボールは甘くないということで、なるほど、ビールを色んなフレーバーの炭酸で割って飲むのも面白いなと思いました。

こちらは長女ちゃんがもらってきた日本のシールです。ビールのがあるからあげるね…と言って置いていきました。勤め先の方が日本に遊びに行って来たそうです。
ビニール製なら水筒に貼れるのに、なぜ和紙？紙製のシールってどこに貼ればいいのでしょうね？貼ってすぐにボロボロになってしまったらもったいないけれど、貼らずにいるのももったいない…😅

こちらは昨夜のビール。帰宅したら皆、ご飯を済ませてスイカを食べていました。帰宅が遅いので普段は飲まないのですが…アルコールが残ったままでは良く眠れないんです…主人がバドワイザーを買ってきてくれたのでいただきました。米と大麦で出来ているそうです。スッキリ軽いビールで、週日に飲むのに丁度良かったです。

ということで、今週のBeerSaturdayでした。
皆さんよい一週間を！

☆☆☆

That’s all for today.
Thanks for visiting!

いつもありがとうございます！
