Very tidy Baltic Porter in Little Martha Brewing
Cygnus X1. Just the right side of sweet and at 7% not too crazy.

You rarely see Arkell's beers up here, this was delicious and not too strong.
As ever, Peerless comes up trumps, magnificent.
As an aside, I've just tasted some liqueurs I made in the autumn. Two sloe gins and a sloe and quince brandy - all maturing very nicely. People say it's drinkable after three months, but notably nicer after a year - we'll see.

Rarely get draught Scottish beers here, looks nice.

Wouldn't mind seeing more brown ales rather than the ubiquitous stouts, which can be overtly sweet and sickly.
I`ve found Thwaites to be a real acquired taste, some of their stuff is top draw, yet other stuff is on par with the likes of Greene King ( imo )
It also seems to need to be well looked after and quite a few places get it wrong.
I really do like their Bomber Ale though.

Some Thwaites pubs are terrible, particularly the one that's five minutes away from me.
On the other hand some aren't ; I love their bog standard bitter which keeps it's head down to the bottom of the glass.

Their flagship pub / hotel in Lancaster- the Toll House Inn ( on the corner as you drive in ) is simply stunning and the beer in there is just sublime, but as you say, a lot of their pubs seem to be in need of some real tlc and are quite dinghy - been to quite a few in Cumbria like that.

Flanagans sold its soul when Bob Burns sold up over 20yrs ago (to Bass I think). For a few years in the 80s I believe it was the biggest beer selling pub in the country. Packed every night of the week, all 3 floors at the weekend.

With the worst Guiness in the country
Not in those days.... Bob Burns knew his trade inside out and ran a very tight ship. My family are Dubs and loved it in there back then.
