Super glad of a festive pint of Gladeye at the Abbotshall
Hello Hivians and all you beer lovers.
It's Saturday, which means it's #beersaturday, not that you need an excuse to drink a beer of course! Today though we accepting a challenge from @nancybriti1
Sorbet cleanses the palate you know!
It is often served between courses, well I know something else that cleanses the palate!
A good fluffing beer!
Tis the Christmas Season
And that means parties.....
On Friday we were at Christmas lunch for some of Mrs T's coworkers!
What can twenty quid buy you?
Actually a beer and a gin and tonic cost £10 which I thought was good value nowadays!
So the ten quid change went to the next couple of pints!
It was a Christmas lucnh, 2 course for £28 or 3 for £33!
Prawn and Smoked Salmon salad
This was ridiculously tasty! A 10/10 from me!
Roast Turkey with stuffing and the trimmings.
These baby carrots were out of this world and the rest of the food was just as good!
Thirsty work all this eating!
So up for another pint of IPA!
The actual cost for one point is £4.50, in this day and age it was a good price. We were in a local hotel which is just down the road from us, but we eat here quite often as it has awesome food!
The Beer ... 🍺 Gladeye IPA
🍺 Gladeye IPA What does Gemini tell us about it? The answer is below!
- Brewery: Drygate Brewing Co.
- Location: Glasgow, Scotland
- Style: American IPA / Retro-Style India Pale Ale
- ABV: 5.2%
- Flavour Profile: It's designed as a "stripped-back" IPA that is simple, unpretentious, and aggressively bitter. It features classic hop characteristics like citrus zest, resinous pine, and a subtle biscuit malt background.
- Meaning of "Gladeye": The name is thought to translate roughly to "flirty look" or "admiring glance," and the label often features a Cyclops—suggesting a single-minded focus on brewing a sharp IPA.
Beer before dessert
Wild Berry Sorbet was out of this world!
The Chocolate Orange Gateaux was too much for me!
Have you had any Christmas festivies yet? Partaken in a wee libation or three?

Esas comidas de ven deliciosas, tuviste un buen banquete, muy completo y da espacio para brindar con cervezas. Aunque el plato típico Venezolano es una bomba que luego no me cabe cervezas jeje
Ah man, that beer looks great, but I have been on meds for a head cold, so I haven't been able to drink the past two weekends!
I hope that cold has gone and I did have a pint for you! Tasty it was too.
Ugh, no, still kicking around. Maybe by next weekend I can imbibe!

For years I haven't participated in Christmas lunches: my boss is a Chavista. But I remember they were the perfect opportunity not only to hang out with friends, but also to eat delicious food. All the dishes look exquisite. I crave them all!! And the beer looks great. A coquettish glance hug.
I am not sure I could work for someone who I am so vehemently opposed to. I guess you bit your tongue and get on with it! the beer was great and the food outstanding! A new week hug
I'd love to join ya!
Hehe you would not have been disappointed!
All yummy dishes, especially the prawn and smoked salmon salad. Would love to have a taste of it. 😅
Haven't attended any Christmas event yet. Hope I will afore the D-day. 😂

Ah yes that is a pint I would make flirty eyes at! I need to sample more Scottish IPAs but there are precious few that make it over the pond to us.
Cheers old friend!
Hehe flirty eyes. It was a tasty solid pint. Good value for a hotel pub over here. Yeah I guess it is the mass produced crap that makes it's way between continents!
Have a good one Zeke!
We are in the Christmas period, and every moment is giving a reason to sip some beers. But, it should not be a reason to be high.
Cheers 🍻
Agreed and Merry Christmas!
