Beer?

[Soltydog]

Just been to my local brewery & bought a case of bottled beers,

It would have been rude not to Only 3000 bottles made so buy now to avoid disappointment
Not sure what it tastes like yet, but I've tried plenty of their other beers & not had a bad one yet

Whilst I've not tried that one, in general I lurve Nelson Sauv!!

Tbh, I don't actually know for a fact that this beer contains NS, but it has that unmistakable cloying flavour of passion fruit. Which is what I don't like about NS. It can work very well in combination with other hops but not by itself - it needs something to balance it. This one has at least one other hop flavour present but the NS still comes through too dominant for me.

But if you like NS, it's probably a beer worth trying.

Wilmlsow has a new boozer, "The Old Dancer" (a former lap dancing joint, geddit?) that seems to be selling craft ales and Belgian beers. I'm going to stop by on my commute home for a beer or 6 and shall report back, with photos!

Stroud Brewery Organic Pale Ale. Really nice taste and a lovely bitter finish, good stuff!

[QUOTE 3032718, member: 259"]Excellent label - so were they handing this stuff out at the sportive feeding stations? [/QUOTE]

Not at the feed stations, but they had a barrel or two at the finish & riders had the chance to sample it then. I was working last year & am working this year, so missed this sportive & the beer IIRC they brewed it specially for the sportive last year & with the TDF coming to Yorkshire they have brewed it again this year & one of their best customers recommended having some bottled this year

Joy of joys, this afternoon, I shared a pint or three with @Aperitif of this parish in one of my favourite town centre boozers.
A real pleasure!

My home town has its own brewery - http://www.brentwoodbrewing.co.uk/our-beers/

The things you miss out when you move abroad!
I'll be back in July for a weekend and see what damage I can do.
