I helped to marshall 2 trail marathons at the weekend, starting/finishing in Leeds, as the 'sweeper'/'lantern rouge'

Cath, the organiser, gave me a goodie bag, that contains tins of beer
We've known each other a lot of years (she Nurse trained with my wife, we've been to both of her weddings, she's my daughters God-Mother), so I couldn't refuse to help

I've been tee-total, since before passing my driving test (in March 1983), so my wife drank them, & pronounced them "quite good!" (even though her favourite is 'Old Peculier')

Local beer, from a local brewery (quite an apt supplier, as we passed Kirkstall Abbey on the 'out', & the 'back', along the Canal)

Early finish.
Me, not the beer. Im off to Paris tomorrow morning for sun, sea, sand and...ah bugger - wrong script. I' m off to Paris tomorrow for the rugby, meeting with my old French counterparts of 45 years+ standing. (My, how time flies!)
As I'll be filling my bottillons with nice red et cetera, I was minded to try a beer before leaving.
I declare this ale 'Crackleproof'- with a smaller head than George Osborne on a good day. The blurb says' a black ale' and it's very dark with a beautiful tint of rouge. 6% strength which is deceptive because it is smooth, malty/choc/usual burned description and it would be easy to drink a few of these as it tastes 'understrength' - for me.
First time I have seen this bottle-conditioned sup...and it is quite nice and totally unexpected in the taste.
Its 18.27 at the moment...only another eighteen minutes to go before an 18.45.:rolleyes:

Just how many attempts did it take you to get the top off? Looks like you needed a hand in the end.
