Real Ale is full of earwigs and bits of twigs. Drank by men with strange beards and bells on their feet.
I like my beer chemically cleaned, chilled and filtered. So there. :p

Hopstar - Sugar Devil
Have we all been 'dry' since the end of March?:D
Pint of Landlord after training and now tucking into my bottle of Ilkley Brewery 'Jack Bloor ale' from last night's race - given that it's a 3.5% special I'm guessing its really just a re-labelled 'Mary Jane' - itself a fine session beer.
Westons 2009 vintage oak aged cider 8.2% - not quite up to my turbo cider strength but it doesn't make you blind and it tastes fantastic - just 1 bottle mind!
Hmmm, I haven't had an ale for weeks - maybe I am a winter ale drinker.
Can highly recommend Raw Brewing Company Grey Ghost and Derby Brewing Company Bee's Knees... also, Thornbridge Colorado Red will on any time now at the Old Hall Whitehough... very excited!
If you're in Derby and a real ale fan, head for the Brewery Tap or The Greyhound and have a rack. Five 1/3 pints of The Derby Brewing Company's finest brews and a bowl of local cheese to cleanse the palate.Quote:

Not too early at all I'd say.Quote:

Langdale is a weird place to camp when its windy, you can hear the wind coming ages before of hits you.
Sorry back to the beer, Theakstones old peculiar all the way.
WOW! I want that right now :oQuote:

The label on the bottle describes it as a "full bodied, rich, smooth tasting ale with a mysterious and distinctive flavour". It is named after the peculier of Masham, a peculier being a parish outside the jurisdiction of a diocese.
Oh did not know that, what beer won gold if OP got silver?
Just drinking a bottle of Staffordshire IPA. Marstons brew it for Marks and Sparks and it's blooming gorgeous, a real summer tipple.
Haven't got a clue.Quote:

Think I deserve an ale tonight, when I get in from work :closed: What shall I have? (Preferably available from Sainsburys!)
How many did you have DT? :w00t:
I think maybe one or two will be all I have time for before I fall asleep anyway - long week and I won't be in til about 9pm. :closed:
Having said that I want to get up and do some painting in the morning so perhaps I should refrain ..............
................. Who am I kidding?! Old Peculier it is :w00t:
Far too much. Got home just as the sun was rising. A steady run today, I think.

actually managed to get to a pub yeterday!
2 pints.
one of Roosters Mayflower (7/10) and one Copper Dragon Challenger IPA (7/10). both excellent!
A little run did cure it! But then I headed up to the Black Bull in Coniston, and topped up with some premium Blue Bird, and that cheeky Infinity IPA they brew, 6%, yikes! :)Quote:
