    Re: Tonight's Real Ale

    A friend of mine went to Chesterfield Art College in the early 80s and told me about a pub there (which was possibly the Derby Tup thinking about it), where they served beer that was so strong it was served in 1/3 pint glasses and you were only allowed 3 x 1/3 pints

    Best get on to your friends at Bradfield Brewery Ian to see if they can knock up something similar for next year's Tanky's - it'd be ideal!

    From the brewery where it was specially bottled for the team hence the name, they were bought for Tanky's Trog and for a fundraising/PR excerise to raise money for the team. Donations around £20 a case to the team will get you a fine beer
