H. Upmann No 2 – Wild Yak Beer - Glenfarclas 21-Year-Old

Had a squizz back through the records as I figured that both the Upmann 2 and the Glenfarclas 21-Year-Old must have both figured in Kenfessions before. And they have, though only once each and not as a combination. The beer? Well, it was just one of those perfect afternoons. So down for a read and a cigar.

The wildlife was in full swing, to provide some extra entertainment. Rosellas in the trees, a young scrub turkey (when I was somewhat younger than I might be these days, scrub turkeys were very wary of any humans and would disappear as fast as they could – now, not a problem. They will happily forage just feet from you if you stay reasonably still), the occasional sea eagle overhead and plenty of other birds, plus a young bearded dragon, happily sunbathing. He didn’t mind when I came close for a look, but what does scare the bejeesus out of them is any shadow from a passing bird. If you have ever seen a hawk take a dragon, and they can take dragons several times bigger than they are, you can easily understand why.

Last time it was me ranting about the imbecilic government not locking looney tunes…

H. Upmann No 2/Holgate Mt Macedon Australian Pale Ale/Holgate Temptress Choc Porter

Thank you, the Australian government. What a bunch of loathsome, jelly-backed, contemptible, feeble-minded, desperate, dishonest, faint-hearted, doolally, floundering, cowardly, craven, snivelling, wannabee, lice-ridden buffoons. Both sides. They’d kill their first born if it meant a vote, or that someone would not frown at them. Truly extraordinary. Sadly, as this is a family site, I cannot tell you what I really think…
