Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

Otter Bitter is lovely, had some at my cousins in Somerset last year. Very agreeable.

Any idea what the Pimlico one's called or what street it's on? I don't know the area at all. Cheers

sainsburys porter (brewed by shepard neame) with olives. odd combination but it works

I'm off to Jan's! Still the best for a nice Belgian.

Pretty cool.. would work well with cheapo lagers at sporting events to cut down lines.

popped into the new beer shop on my way home from mtb'ing bought some kings old ale

""Kings Old Ale is a multiple award winning dark brown Old Ale with an intense dry, coffee and slightly smoky aroma. There is a delicious and satisfying mouthfeel of silky viscosity before the taste of coffee and molasses covers your tastebuds. The aftertaste of liquorice from the malt and slight spice from the relatively light use of hops complements the preceding flavours very well and forms the perfect end to this beautiful beer."

very nice it was too.

have a bottle of their own dorking brewery no1 ale for tomorrow.

^ hey thats tonight and this weekend ? anyone up for it ?

in other news stella to launch it's own range of cider ?

a top pint of Maldons porter in the wheatsheaf southwark street.
can't remember if it's the award winning blackadder porter or their seasonal pegottys porter but it was very good.

worth a look if the usual Borough real ale pubs (the rake/market porter) are rammed

good tip. ta.

How did you notice something so far outside of your usual sphere of interest, hippy?

I'm a broad minded guy, always looking for something new and interesting..

They probably have a coffee beer or something
