... funny old lot , the Pig's Ear attendees ... weirder than any London fixed wheel or single speed bike riders ... but , lots of nice beers ..... and the thirds thing great .. if ... you have any discipline ... and if you don't - quite a bonkers ride home - South at commuter hour .... probably be back for more tomorrow ... !
Had a very pleasant catch up and a natter with some mates at the Pig's Ear beer festival in Hackney. Drank various dark things, starting with a couple of milds and working my way up through the stouts and porters. I wholly approve of the thirds thing; means you get to taste lots of different things without falling over. I had to dash for my train so didn't get round to trying the O'Hanlons vintage, for which I'm slightly kicking myself, but did pick up a Tynt Meadow from the bottle bar to try later.
