What a pity that a 3.2% (!) brown porter has to be crap.<BR/><BR/>The idea of a beer fest in your part of the world strikes me personally as being about as unnecessary as a beer fest in Belgium: English pubs (as I've experienced courtesy of the GBG anyway) and Belgian cafés have such wonderful beer --and beer culture-- that just spending time in them is a beer festival in itself.<BR/><BR/>Dark Star--is this the brewery we saw so much of in Plymouth?

It's something we do a lot up here to save moving empties around.<BR/><BR/>Why not transport them full of beer?<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm quite sure Buttermere Beauty is not from Foxfield, but I agree, it's not my favourite, but then it's a real "pilsner", what do you expect?<BR/><BR/>Congrats on selling out of beer!The Woolpack Innhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07227895265449842044noreply@blogger.com
