Saw this on the way to the pub

Safety first.
Mrs M and I were in Sandbach yesterday, so we stopped in at the
Beer Emporium. While choosing Fathers' Day presents, we had a half each.
Mine was Weetwood ales' Southern Cross, a "New Zealand Style Pale" apparently, nicely hoppy and refreshing on a warm day, and at a sessionable abv of 3.6%
Mrs M had Merlin brewery's Dark Magic (a 4.8% mild) - it was very nice.
I've said it before, but if you're ever over that way, do pop in - they charge bottle prices for the beer on draught, so our two halves cost £2.80 all in.
In terms of off sales, they seem to have gone quite pale and gold heavy for the Summer, but there was still a good selection of best bitters and stouts from what I saw. They also have Kernel and Cloudwater now, I noticed.
Anyway, the main event was a repeat, thanks to the beer randomiser;
See
previous review, if you like.
(yellow emoticon to indicate perplexedness etc) For the first time never, I'm baffled (but not exhausted).
