Ringwood Fortyniner

Well with the wife away, I decided that I should have at least one night in for the week so I headed to the new Waitrose at Shepherds Bush to stock up on supplies to make for a good night in. I managed to pick up a large coiled Cumberland Sausage, mashed potato, a large Yorkshire pudding and a selection of ales from the booze section. One of these ales was Fortyniner (4.9% abv) from Ringwood Brewery. The name is pretty self explanatory considering the alcohol concentration. The beer is a copper coloured bitter which I thought would go down well with my bangers and mash, and sure thing it did!

Anyhow for those interested I whipped up some onion gravy and served up my sausage on a bed of mash potato in a giant Yorkshire pudding. Awesome.... the simple things are always the best.
