Hey! I'm Alanna - a twenty-something documenting my life as a Canadian living in England.
I share the ups and downs of an expat living abroad and what it's really like living in the UK. It's not always easy, but there's been so many wonderful experiences, too. I post a KZbin video every Tuesday & Friday plus an additional video every Saturday on my Patreon account. I also livestream every Wednesday and Sunday at 5:30pm GMT on Twitch.

PLEASE buy yourself a glass. They don't cost a fortune, and you get to see the actual colour of the liquid. Yes, you will need a bit of practice to get the head right, but I know you will find such practice quite enjoyable. Drinking from cans inevitably imparts a metallic taste.

[@gozer87]

I was stationed in the UK and I was definitely surprised by the quality beer when I got there. It was the early 90s, before the big craft movement in the US. I thought Coors was primo at the time. My mind was blown.

[@barrymiller3385]

Actually they are all beers. Ale, stout, IPA, lager etc are all types of beer. 😊

[@thatonebritishidiot3037]

I hear that a lot from American folk I know

[@eightw5783]

I know there are some good American craft beers but how you ever thought Coors was any good...I'll put it down to you being young.

[@Grover91]

I know a few Americans that came over with the "the british drink flat, warm beer" notion and had an epiphany the first time they had a cellar chilled ale at the pub. Beer is only warm if you don't drink it fast enough.😂

[@gozer87]

@eightw5783 it came in a 5 liter "party ball", how could it be bad?

[@PeterWasted]

IPA = India Pale Ale. This type of beer was developed for export and used ingredients designed to make the beer stable so as not to spoil on long sea journeys. In practice, they reduced the malt and increased the hops. Double IPA is, I believe, double hopped in that hops are added both before and after fermentation. I've always found IPAs to be quite harsh on first taste but they improve as I drink more! I must say I suspect chilli peanuts did little to improve the first tastes of the beers.

[@neilgayleard3842]

Indian pale ale was developed for the British army in India. Hence the name.

[@harveybrant3352]

My understanding is that the 'double' in double IPA refers to the amount of malt used. More malt means more sugar to ferment and therefore usually a stronger beer. That's what my local craft brewer told me anyway.

[@PeterWasted]

@@harveybrant3352 Having now fact checked myself, you are correct in that the "double" appears to have originally referred to an increase in malt to produce a higher alcohol content. However, there are many beers being sold as Double IPA which are described as extra hopped. It seems Double IPA is also called Imperial IPA. There's a brewer's association who say this, "... Imperial IPA as an IPA with color that is straw to medium amber, 6.0%-8.4% alcohol, with hop aromas and flavors that are very high, but not aggressively bitter. Among brewers the general consensus is that a double IPA is an IPA with amplified aromas, flavors, and alcohol". So that suggests there is no actual requirement to double anything!

[@keithfrost1190]

@@neilgayleard3842 It's India Pale Ale. It's not Indian it's British.

[@matchmade44]

The British army in imperial India won't have had refrigeration and it's a great light ale to drink at room temperature. Some ales can be really heavy tasting - good on a rainy evening in November, less so in summer. I'm defo going to give the 1698 a go. Less so the chocolate-banana slammer!

I feel like I was there and tasted with you... we shared an experience. Finding your drink can take decades... but it is a fun journey along the way and you discover a lot of interesting things. In my older years I hardly drink at all but I think I learned to appreciate the moment... an enjoyable drink in a good place in the right circumstances... much like a great song or drama, context make a big difference.

IPAs, or India Pale Ales, were slightly higher in alcohol than other beers when introduced, but more of the wort was fermented, meaning few residual sugars, and they were heavily hopped. IPAs were formulated to survive long voyages by sea better than other styles of the time of its inception in 1850s

I stopped in a "free house"(where the brewery doesn't own the pub.) in Peterborough a few years back. There was a "Real Ale" night. Beers or Ales started at 9%. The guy next to me, asked for a 1/3rd of a pint of "Roger and Out" . I watched as it was delivered from a small barrel behind the barman. Unknowingly I asked the guy why only a 1/3rd of a pint? "Just two of these and I will be legless!" I never found out its strength.

[@DaveBartlett]

I remember a New Years Eve years ago, when unusually, my wife and I had no New Years party to go to, so we decided to have a night out and installed ourselves in a real ale pub in our city centre. We were perched on bar stools right across from the strong ales pumps. I had a pint of Roger and Out and got a particular taste for it. I stayed with the same brew for the next three pints, and having drunk four, I decided it was time for a visit to the gents. I carefully lowered myself from my bar stool to the floor and suddenly discovered that my legs had stopped working. I felt (reasonably) semi-sober otherwise, (a bit tiddly but not too bad) but my legs just wouldn't work, and just folded under me. I dragged myself to my feet, and headed for the toilets, only to find my legs wobbling again before I got there. The next time I came across 'Roger and Out' was the following summer, on a visit to a pub in Sheffield, but there the door to the Gents was right next to where I was sitting, which was itself right opposite the bar. Nevertheless, I drank it in halves and stopped well before I started feeling the effects. A lovely brew, but too risky to go all out on it!

[@Shaun_Garratt]

[@benlee8436]

Loved this! You have naturally good taste in beer (and yes, it's all beer; they are different styles of beer) and I love the McEwan's and 1698 too; my favourite supermarket beers. IPA is India Pale Ale. Beer used to go bad on the sea voyage between Britain and India, so they added more hops (the preservative in beer), which ruined the beer by making it utterly unbalanced and bitter, but hey! It was British beer! In India! In more recent times, barbarians who hate beer, but love bitterness have popularised drinking this stuff for fun!!! Worse, it has gotten into a macho contest to see who can have the hoppiest beer and I always vet any new beer I try for hop bragging. Any trace of that and I'm gone. I love stout, but that last one is new to me. I'm intrigued. Sainsbury's has no really good stout and while I'm not sure that's one, it does sound like an experience, so I may have to take a trip to Tesco. Looks like you had fun! :)

You sound like a sensible traditionalist. You're going to love my little story. I worked for a brewery that made some custom beers on demand for the buyers. One day our biggest customer wanted "a dark IPA". The response was something like "So you want an ale, with lots of hops?". Turned out the consumers requested this because they all were on the IPA hype, but obviously wanted something else, because the product they preferred was the least hoppy one. They just wanted to drink a dark ale, but in a bottle that said "IPA". Well, they paid for it. But it never felt right bottling that nice ale in IPA bottles. :( A barbarian who loves bitter stuff.

Shepherd Neame 1698 might taste that bit more deadly when you drink it straight from the bottle like that. It's a 'bottle conditioned' ale, meaning the secondary fermentation continues in the bottle, so there's a fair chance you'll have got a mouthful of sediment there. Bottle conditioned brews should be decanted into a glass before drinking.

Would love to try a Russian imperial stout

[@Innerspace100]

Years and years ago, somebody gave me a can of Carlsberg Special Brew. Don't remember exactly the percentage, but 10 or 11-ish. It's basically a lager, but with that high an alcohol content, it tasted like somebody had put some moonshine into it... Absolutely disgusting(!). It was even worse than their Elephant Beer, which is infamous.

@@oscarosullivan4513 Not stout. Stouts are nice. This was Russian Imperial Stoat. From Wessex Brewery. Not a fan. Glad I only had a half.

[@oscarosullivan4513]

@@DaveF. I would try it anyway

If it's not too late, please include Robinsons Old Tom Strong Ale (8.5%).... available from Tesco's. Voted the World's Best Ale a couple of years ago! It's dark and deadly!!! lol :)

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

That'll have to be Part 2!

Don't want her getting too tipsy too fast 😉

[@deydododontdedoh.5672]

.....and Ginger Tom 😁

[@richb3307]

I think you would like Thomas Hardy’s Ale or Barley Wine.

[@musicgarryj]

@@AdventuresAndNaps Absolutely loved this video! PLEASE do a Part 2!!! :) You could maybe also try Whitbread Gold Label Barley Wine (around 12%) but it's a bit sickly sweet........ A really good strong beer/ale snack for next time is Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chili Crisps! yum yum........

New Brit subscriber here. On the strength of this video (pun intended!) - added Vocation Imperial Banana to my shopping list for this week. Just seen some of your older videos, love what you're doing, looking forward to following. Best wishes!

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Awesome! Thank you so much!!

[@davemac1197]

@@AdventuresAndNaps - Alanna, I'm drinking the Vocation Imperial Banana right now - I started it with a pizza earlier this evening, and my first impression was 'wow' - that's got a strong banana kick to it! It reminds me of something, it may have been a cooked dessert with banana in it but I can't quite recall. Very weird. I also picked up a couple of bottles of the Kentish Ale while I was in Tesco, so I'll be giving that a go tomorrow. Thanks for doing the video, it was very interesting, but maybe next time use glasses so we can see just how darkly evil these beers are. Cheers!

[@hughanderson8876]

on a lovely bright summers day, the breeze is warm, the sky is blue - a chilled ale, it's so refreshing!

[@hughanderson8876]

hehehehe 4:13 was A + N asleep?!?!?! Whoa! gotta try the sweet chilli peanuts, nice cheers Alanna! (from MortimerMcFly)

A big hi from the far north of scotland a thank you for the laughs a great channel.

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks for watching!

[@mccpcorn2000]

I'm making notes here lol. Glad I had some bottles in the fridge, so I could join you in this little venture. Vocation is one of my very special treats to myself! Evil Twin by Roaster Coaster is also nice, 9%!

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@terryhughes9291]

the best funiest video. Alana getting drunk

[@BoredOfBills]

Sitting here with a bottle of red watching my favourite Canadian import getting tipsy - this is a great start to the evening : )

intresting theme on this channel. Enjoying this to watch!!!

You make me laugh girl and brighten my day 😊. Love your content. ❤️

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks so much!

[@adamknights1897]

Excellent video. You do make me laugh. Totally agree with you about Pork Scratchings.

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks for watching!

[@mammothmotouk]

This was the funniest video. Thanks, you cheered me up.

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mikepxg6406]

Excellent video. Cheers...

[@terrysutton8452]

You mentioned you wanted to visit The Peak District. I highly recommend it. Buxton, Matlock and Bakewell are great places together but also Wetton Mill and the Manifold Valley are also very beautiful. And you can also see Thor’s Cave and the Blue John Mines. Well worth a visit.

[@cyrilthesquirrel1546]

Stumbled across this channel - thought I would give it a look! Fucking funny!!! New subscriber now :)

[@neil364]

It's interesting that you went for the strong ABV right from the off. Not a great way to decide whether or not you will enjoy an IPA for example as you might well enjoy one with a lower alcohol content. That said, I am so glad you did, because it was so inevitable how this video was going to go, right from your Kentish start, Lol. I'm Kentish by the way and I was happy somehow that you loved your opener to the brahms and list.

[@davephilpotphilpot9867]

Getting hammered in your own kitchen is a very british thing to do love your videos

[@rheostar]

Cracking video Alanna. For beers to taste, you could try Fullers ESB, one of my favorites.

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks for the suggestion!

[@TheR4360]

Great vid it was funny to see you slowly getting merry, great choice in beer, try Whitstable ale,

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks for watching!

[@M05000583]

I was just thinking to myself I can't wait for another full-bodied, smooth and complex video from Alanna, and here it is 🤣 By the way, I also sleep on the floor and use my sofa as a drinks holder after a night in. I'm a bit concerned about why you were drinking perfume though 🤣 Excellent video as always, It makes me smile to think this was filmed at 10 in the morning due to noisy neighbors though

[@AdventuresAndNaps]

Thanks so much for watching!
