You must've already had one, no one buys 23 bottles.

A poncey glass was taking the space of the 24th bottle in the crate.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
True. @theclaud - sounds right up your street, and I think there's still a place available on the ride. Or indeed any of the other reprobates on the thread.
Unfortunately the chief little helper (@mmmmartin) has now put up the "ride full" sign. And I think we'll be staying near Bruges for the Sunday night rather than near Brussels.

Well

Quiz night last night and due to a misjudged victory the spoils (always a selection of the world's most frightfully hipster brews) went to Team Mossy. I usually decline my share because as ne fewl kno, beer is to be had in a pub, from a cask, in pints and with a head. on this occasion, though, I was taken by the packaging and took one home and opened it just now. It's a craft can. "Hops+hops+hops" it's says on the tin and the drawing is funky. It's 8.5% ABV.

Wondering how one drinks beer at home I selected a wine glass (that's what they do innit) and decided the best bet was to wrap up warm with Libby (Purves; midweek, R4) and take it to bed.

It's cloudy. It's sulphurous. It's not very nice.

One way or another it was going to end up down the loo; I just cut out the middle man.

Nice can.

Funnily enough Mossy, I found myself in the Brighton Beer Dispensary last night, where you and I had burger and chips and beer.
It was quiz night there too and we finished in a position of mid-table mediocrity - inevitably let down by our lack of modern music knowledge. Our plasticine model of Leo DiCaprio and Kate on the prow, hitting an iceberg, curiously failed to garner any points, sadly.
Late Knights Free State bitter was bloody brilliant as was the Yeastie Boys Gunnamatta on tap. In fact I fecking love the Yeastie Boys one. The pub also serves 2/3 pint which I drank at the same rate as the others drank pints. Not a bad idea at 6.5% versus 4.5.
Piccie of the Late Knights and I think you'll agree we were robbed on the Titanic fiasco

The saddest thing about that is that The Brighton Beer Dispensary (terrible name) used to be a comfortable little pub, but is now one of those bare echo-chambers full of people yelling at each other, in which you can hardly hear yourself think. The beer didn't make up for that for me :sad:.
The Prince Arthur was a shíte pub with miserable landlord. It's now a successful buzzing place with a great line in burgers and a wealth of various beers.
Horses for courses clearly.

Of all the places you took me in Brighton last year, Rich, the Dispensary is the one I remember most and recommend to others.

V. good burgers too
