I've just signed up for a beer and cheese tasting at our local poncey offie. Should be fun!
This bloke is doing the talking stuff
Cheese and wine is fine, but cheese and beer is better!
Join the Quaff Fiveways team and Brighton-based food journalist and cheese writer Patrick McGuigan for a night of fermented frolics on Thursday 23 October. We'll be pairing some of the shop's best craft beers with a range of British and Continental cheeses as we explore a world beyond Port and Stilton.
The informal tasting will see a range of different beer styles from Quaff's extensive range of traditional and modern craft ales matched with artisan cheeses from farmhouse and new wave cheesemakers. Expect short talks about the people behind the products, serving tips and why ale and curds are the ultimate match.

Excellent! Completely agree with that sentiment. Beer is so much better with cheese than wine.

See Harvey's won the best imperial stout at the WBA, looks a good un too, might have to track some down. Hooky won best 4% bitter again! Harviestoun on the list too. And some foreign stuff.

Edit: Hooky 12 Days won best porter
Edit 2: just seen some other awards, utter nonsense!

Had a friend staying from Brazil for a while so thought I should introduce him to some fine Ales.
When are you going to get them then?

You didn't honestly think there was only one of each did you?
I haven't tried the Harveys one but I'll have a look for it too.See Harvey's won the best imperial stout at the WBA, looks a good un too, might have to track some down. Hooky won best 4% bitter again! Harviestoun on the list too. And some foreign stuff.

Beer and wine tasting would be better, and some dairylea triangles for afters.

Just the one midweeker: a Belgian-style quad from To Ol. Not bad at all - touch of barley wine about it.
Not entirely convinced by the name - it's the sort of thing though that the scandis seem to find terribly clever.

I diverted via Lewes today to visit Harveys Brewery shop - a place of sheer delight.
I picked up a selection of their bottled beers including the award-winning double stout mentioned by 3BM upthread.
Tasty, malty and very treacly - I lack the erudition to wax as lyrical as @John the Monkey or, dare I say it, @theclaud
the shop
the beer selection
the double stout

You bought extra to send to your mates natch. I'd also like a Priory ale, Elizabethan and Prince Denmark. Quick as you like.
