NNGO Irish Raider Red Ale

So a few of you may know that one of the things that the almighty Zakku does in his spare time is brew beer. What only one other person on here has known personally is that I'm actually a rather good at it to boot * award winning actually, to toot my own horn once again* Well this time around I decided to dedicate one of my brews to all you guys in the NNGO * which since I am apart of the NNGO also means I dedicate this beer to myself but for reasons of not coming off as too much of a narcissist I cant outright say* So any who as I am actually brewing another batch of beer as we speak I decided to continue the old brewers tradition of giving a offering to the beer gods. As it happens I opened up the first bottle of my new brew, ladies and jerkwads I present NNGO Irish Raider Red Ale




this is about 2 weeks in the bottle which is really too young but it still tastes fantastic. Really nice malty aroma with a slight floral note and a really smooth sweet chocolate aftertaste, and as it's name implies a gorgeous ruby red color. Magelet is quite the fan of it already and has given it her seal of approval. The seal just wants to honk horns and eat fish though so screw him . By the time Christmas comes around this should be ready to steel our nerves and help sink a english ship or three


Oh and as a treat a rare picture of me drinking down the first bottle, for some reason it keeps on making the picture horizontal, but hey I think that adds to the mystique. So lets hear it for the NNGO!!!! Oh and do remember pinkies up bitches

Yep, just as I imagined ya.

nice, where's my bottle?

damn ya, zakk, now i wanna drink it

And that beer looks divine Zakku, party at your place then?

yeah everyone come over, bring a sleeping bag or we can see how many people we can cram into the bathtub with some pillows

Bathtub?! Who got the couch already?

I bags the bathtub! I know that a bathtub can be quite cosy, I once spent the night in my bathtub with my two cats and a duvet. We were sheltering from a cyclone, but it was cosy too lol.
