Lazy Friday afternoon with lashings of Franks ginger beer

Location: Wales coastal path

Moodmusic: Geiger counter of Olympic madness is not going boing round here

Todays memories and soundbites
It was such a lovely day.  After a hard working week it was a spontaneous mid-afternoon decision to make the most of the day, jump into a red convertible Mini Cooper, and why not take along a picnic beer?  Sat on the edge of the Menai Straights and watched the sea bass hop out of the water, the swallows pick up gnats above the beached seaweed and over the flooded fields, and a lazy rabbit lollop along the hedgerow behind. It truely felt like summer at last.

Drink
1. Kopparberg, Frank's alcoholic ginger beer (4%)
Reactions
Emotional: Forgive me .... it's a sunny day outside and I'm driving so let me enjoy this!
Critical: Not something to recommend for every day drinking, but, cold on a hot day, in the right place it hits the mark.  Sweet ginger - nothing hot and fiery - gentle pale ale lager tones with sticky ginger highlights.
