Nice, doesn't fully win me over to sours but its pretty complex if a bit 'poppy', made with blueberry blackcurrant, blackberry and almonds.

Is it one of them, one is nice, but enough ?

Definitely.

The UK's top stout on Rate Beer, I think.

Lovely and rich. A perfect sipper.

I've been there a fair few times, nice pub.

Will you miss the Lamb & Flag in Oxford?

THE Lamb & Flag, one of Oxford’s most historic pubs, is to close following tough trading conditions causes by coronavirus lockdowns.

Yep, was there once...really nice vibe. Sad!

Been drinking these. I like it because it is not trying too hard, it’s a decent IPA with a bit of grapefruit—not too hoppy, not too citrus-ey. Highly drinkable for its seeming ordinaryness.

Possibly the best chokky stout there is, like a bar of Galaxy in a glass.

Just finished Dry January and this is one left over from my beer advent calendar!

I had one of these last night. I'd left it from Christmas as I wasn't expecting much, but it was in fact a lovely porter and very drinkable - smooth and soft.

Good way to get back in business!

Looks nice.

Their mango and chilli sour is nice, though not quite enough heat for me.

Mango Inferno. Looking for exciting flavour combinations is a priority of ours, and we think we've hit the nail on the head with this one. Vegan friendly.

You've done well to get hold of one of them - it's like rocking horse doodoo. D

Thats one I've not tried yet, got a bottle of their Iron Bru sour in the cellar. Might neck that next weekend.

Aldi have bought 250000 gallons of beer and bottled it, from breweries that otherwise would’ve flushed it due to the virus.

Went on sale today and some really nice stuff amongst them, Old Hooky, Tanglefoot and even Warnsteiner.

All being sold at substantially cheaper prices than elsewhere.

Old Hooky is lovely. Brewed 3 miles from me.

Get involved.

One of the few remaining breweries that deliver by horse drawn dray (to pubs within 5miles of the brewery). The horses are also partial to the odd pint of Old Hooky!

Can’t remember if posted before...and with an ABV of 7.4%, a lovely beer....
