[ He hasn't missed that the question asked isn't, in fact, about ale, or their surroundings, or anything else he could attribute it to or for in the sake of keeping things light. Nor is it a joke meant as an evasion but more to fill a space to consider what it is Sylvain isn't telling him in there by way of asking something indirectly, or what feels like it. Claude had followed that up frowning down at his drink as if seriously offended by his own choice though in looking up a second later it's with a grin to meet the look on Sylvain's face. ]
