It's big, costs £2.50 and comes from Sainos...

No beards were involved in the consumption of this beer.

Ah - how could I forget the best beer of the night. Piña Collision from Magic Rock - a7% pineapple sour saison - insanely good! An utter triumph - I could easily drown in the stuff.

Biggest let down of the festival was Burning Sky sadly. They'd sold out of everything when I got there at 6pm - there's still an entire day to go, so not sure what they're going to do.

Woodforde's Nelson's Revenge kit arrived yesterday. I'll get cracking once the rhubarb wine has finished in the fermenter.

A phrase guaranteed to strike terror into the most hardened of drinkers.

I suspect it'll be added to the list of things I've done once.

Waterstone Wheat (Lymestone Brewery, 4.5% abv)

A little bit of the watermelon at first, and an elusive sweetness, before pretty powerful hop bitterness, which seems warm and herby. A lovely, refreshing beer, possibly more suited to warm summer evenings, but I enjoyed this very much.

Mrs M says: "I liked it", and then, as if remembering RichP's rather ungallant admonition from last week, "It was very nice."

It looks sub-standard and corky. Nobbery.
