A beer and curry evening in Chesterfield yesterday saw me sampling:
Golden Bud - Brampton Brewery
Landlord - Timothy Taylor
Pale Rider - Kelham Island Brewery
Moor Top - Buxton real ale
Brigantes - Ossett Brewery
Drop of the Dark Stuff - Springhead Brewery
Sounds like a good night Alf!!Originally Posted by Alf
Ale and Curry, a proper evening out
Had a couple last night myself, a very local one from a new micro brewery and 2 commerical ales:
Walls - Gun Dog Bitter
Wychwood - Hobgoblin
Wychwood - Festive Cheer
Off out again at midday for the beginnings of our Xmas do, I can see it ending in a north east city in the small hours of tomorrow
Will be visiting Booths the weekend after next to get some lovely Lake District beers for Christmas. Snecklifter, Tag Lag... can't wait.
a bottle of Tripel Karmeliet last night. fantastic!
big fruity (juicy pear, ripe banana) aroma and a really deep complex taste which evolved with each sip. very highly recommended 9/10
Participated in a 31 bar 'pub crawl' on Saturday in Chorlton, Manchester.
From what I remember, we had a fair few good ales!
Moorhouses - Blond Witch
Abbeydale - Deception
Marble - Pint
Bank Top - Flat Cap
31 :w00t: Was it a relay ?
still "rehydrating" after simonside...with the co-ops organic ale...disappointing :thunbdown:yet ethical :thumbup:
Nope, it was a proper pub crawl with a strict itinerary!31 :w00t: Was it a relay ?
Either a half pint, shot, or bottle in each. Of the original 8, half completed it
Would not have though there was that many pubs in Chortlon. Do a continuous loop of the pubs on the green would be OK though!
Aye, I didn't either! We started on Upper Chorlton Road near Jam Street, down to the 4 banks, out towards Stretford, left towards the green, back down Beech Road, onto Barlow Moor Road, back towards the 4 banks, then finishing up down Wilbraham Road.
Quite a bit of walking involved
