this was recommended by a mate of mine recently, I picked it up from a supermarket oop norf.

its very similar to the Yakima Red from Meantime brewery and the Wolf Rock from Sharpes but leaves a slightly stronger aftertaste. if you have the chance, give it a whirl.

Had a pint of Clarence & Fredericks Cascadian Black in the Victoria 'spoons while waiting for my train last night. I really liked it, though I see it doesn't score very highly on ratebeer as an example of the style. I wouldn't rate it as highly as the Kernel's Black IPA but it's still pretty good, I thought - nice bitter roastiness and a good dose of citrussy Cascade hops. Pah, what do those ratebeer clowns know anyway?

'Like' may be overdoing it though!

My dear son has suggested a weekend away on the píss in Amsterdam. Any views or news on this place, about which he texted me about?

Butchers being the link of course.

Not sure Rich. I've tried a few of their beers and wasn't overwhelmed. I didn't realise they had their own place, but there are so many springing up now.

My favorite place in Amsterdam is "Arendsnest". It's the best place to sample Dutch beer as that's all it serves. Had a bit of a sesh there a few years ago with Mangaman before he disappeared!

Other brewery places are 't Ij, De Prael and Oedipus. In de Wildeman and Bier Tempel are the other decent beer bars. There's also a new one that opened last week - Craft and Draft - which looks good.

In easy reach of Amsterdam are: the new Uiltje bar in Haarlem, Brouwerij De Molen in Bodengraven, 't Klooster in Delft (my local) and Kaapse Brouwers in Rotterdam. The latter is in a converted warehouse along with a baker, cheesmaker, coffee roaster, butcher, cider dude and veggie seller.

Cheers DP, I'll pick your brain nearer the event, if it gets off the ground!

Dobber is magnificent but you lose points for not observing the Thornbridge boycott (though I admit I almost didn't notice, being distracted by the pretty bike on the label, the cunning swines).

I am giving up drinking. I need to lose weight and get back into competitive running / tri shape. So I am going to have to avoid this thread completely (I know I don't post much in it these days, but I'm going to stop even reading it...).
