Iirc the tap also sells Magic Rock cycling gear - pretty nice if you like their house style.

Passion Fruit Berliner Weisse outta Sweden. My top beer of the summer. Tart without being enamel stripping and lightly fruity.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Qualification drinks for one of my team at the Hydrant, a Fullers pub next to the Monument. It's got several fridges full of trendy beer. If I can get them to turn off the music it's in the running for my leaving drinks.
After a generic bottle of over-hopped pale ale with a trendy label I discovered that they had Birdie Flipper on draught. Brewed by the Long Arm Brewing company (another two-man (sic) brewing startup, this time from Ealing) it claims to be a Red Ale. It's not. It's a strongish mild (4.something%) with a sweet malty flavour.
When my first pint was poured into a proper dimpled mug with a handle I was sold.

This is as close as you'll get to an American brown beer from a UK brewery. Bloody lovely hoppy malty rye stuff, all the Big C hops are here. Fablas.

€2 per kilo delivery, which if my maths is right makes it about €1.50 per can. Which at current exchange rates is still roughly on a par with corner-shop prices.
Or, since it's part of AB InBev and a GYP you could just buy Becks and pretend - it'll taste about the same.

You're own your own now Mossy!
Oh don't be silly. If I were on holiday I'd be all over this sh1t. NOT being on holiday is what's getting in the way. When I see that cliche, I see 'in front of every woman is some man, getting the f*ck in the way'.
