I have no doubt that if it were brewed by a beardie weirdie in shed and only availible in 1 pub, the CAMRA lot would be more enthusiastic.

ReplyDeleteGK were so much better when they had a few distinctive beers. Now too many taste the same. I expect OSH taste-alike.

ReplyDeleteBollocks. CAMRA "old skool" love the old fashioned regionals and dislike - nay, distrust - anything from a brewery smaller than 100BBL. Only "tickers" like micro brewers, this is a fact well known.

ReplyDeleteJohnG. Wrong really. And while Bamberg is famous for smoked beer, there are so many other options readily available, which is my main point.
