Braved the downpour and went to the Lucky Lab in the Pearl for an art display my step-daughter was part of.
Had a nice "nitro" and an ESB
I think the Typhoon would be be good based on tomorrow's forecast ...

I spent 5 years on Okinawa and have seen many typhoons. They are used to them but not where you are. Be safe. The spookiest part is when the eye comes over you. All is calm and you can see the clear sky. Have to look for another beer to add to this collection.
Very good, Rob! I did not know that Snoopy was also a test pilot.
This next ale is named after the famous James Doolittle, who was born in Alameda, California. I have found a video review for it.

I have to look through my can collection but don't think plane inspired cans from back in the 70's.
Now that is a find Dave.
Must get some of that for Doncaster next year.

So many aircraft related beers around the world. great to see them.
What do you think this plane is?
No, it is not a Blackburn Skua but you could easily be misled by its design and because of its Bristol Mercury engine.
Wikipedia tells us that the Valmet Vihuri (Finnish for Gale) was a Finnish advanced two-seat fighter trainer aircraft, serving in the Finnish Air Force between 1953 and 1959. Only a few airframes have survived, as in the Central Finland Aviation Museum in Finland.
Note the Finnish Me109 and a VL Pyörremyrsky in the background.
I would advise any cadet to keep away from strong drink.

The brewery is called Hopping Brewsters. It is situated in Finland. Its website is at http://hoppingbrewsters.fi/
Here is another of their products.
The aircraft is a Valtion Lentokonetehdas VL Viima. Versions of the two-seat biplane trainer were used by the Finnish Airforce from the late 1930's until the early 1960's.
