Beer, revisited

[ste d' indica]

It's absolutely beautiful, quite sweet, you can drink it by the bucket.

Skipton started off as a micro a few years ago and now have quite a few pubs around the Lancashire / Yorkshire border around Skipton.

If your still at the pub, I can thoroughly recommend putting this on if you can get it.

That and St Austells Tribute are my fav Summer beers.

Had a word mate, Paul's gonna try and get hold of a cask.

Lovely one from Sharp's: Wolf Rock, rich red IPA, really rich and fruity.

Was bit worried when Coors took over Sharps, but in fairness to them the beer quality seems to have been maintained

Not sure mate, just says brewed in United Kingdom, could be an outsourced one.

It's brewed at Rock, just outside Padstow.

The other big Cornish brewer is St Austell mate. ( better beers imo )

Whitstable Bay Ale from Faversham, nice fresh easy drinker, slight burnt toffee flavour gives it a bit of bite.

Got these waiting for pre-season:

Weltenburger Asam Bock - a double dark bock beer
and
Weltenburger Barock Dunkel - a dark beer

From the oldest monastery brewery in the world:

Had three of the new m&s beer range, tasted good but unfortunately all three were very flat. Apparently they are having problems.

Had this stuff when I was in Croatia in June, absolutely delightful beer. Very gassy though.

Picture makes me laugh. Reminded me of a trip to Ghent in Belgium, Everyone hung over to death and decided to have a few draft Guiness in an Irish pub as settlers, before starting on it again. They served the Guiness with a head like that and we had to go behind the bar and show them how to pull a proper pint !

Not necessarily a fan of most monks' views on celibacy nor theology, but they know a lot about good beer
