An unOlympian effort

We have another blogger in our army of beer bloggers. He is lucid, intelligent, apparently knows all the letters and can even occasionally spell many of the words he might need without resorting to spellcheck.

He has begged us to become one of the crack team of beer swilling... erm, tasting journalists, and I have therefore readied the blogosphere for his first post. It's bound to be amazing. Wordy, insightful, humorous and topical; this cutting edge journalistic stuff will be too good for us mere mortal bloggers. This will be the stuff of blog legend for years to come. Every bon-mot carefully selected, each phrase a thing of beauty, words for the sake of words, un-putdownable and unmissable. And so to premiere...

Wait a minute. Where is he? All this was days ago. Have you seen him Addie? Where is our new blog-champ? Don't tell me he's going to be more trouble than you. Oh no. He hasn't managed to post anything yet. Too busy. Right. Thanks.

Better talk about today's beer then, for what it's worth. Adnams Flame Runner, at an exceedingly gentle 3.9%. Adnams know what they're doing, and without trying too hard have made a light and easygoing beer perfectly positioned to exploit the flame-bearing pre-Olympic nation. We're poised in anticipation eagerly awaiting the Olympics. But what an anti-climax they'll be when following our new blogger's spectacular beer-words.

Maybe. Is holding your breath an Olympic sport yet?
