Whilst on the subject, what is the difference between Greengate Smooth and Best Bitter Extra Smooth?

For the moment though, most if not all, have not yet had the new pump clips.

Or is that the Darkman or whatever-it-is?<BR/><BR/>FWIW, while one or two other really hoppy, pale, and dry bitters were better, Lees Bitter is what I regret not having drunk more of whilst I was there last summer. (WITHOUT the silly fad nitro-effect-simulating plastic doohicky on the swanneck, of course!) Certainly the most interesting Bitter I found in Manc. May very well also be the best next time.Erlangernickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564871714656285737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-18028624200482826282008-01-30T13:44:00.000+00:002008-01-30T13:44:00.000+00:00Ah.

It's not something we see at all this side of the hills of course, but one thing that would take some getting used to are those ridiculous glasses with the hand-print in them! At first I thought these were something the pub had initiated for less than dextrous Latics fans until I noticed JW Lees name embossed on the rim. They are the ugliest beer glasses of all time - surely it isn't mandatory to drink this fine beer from these monstrosities is it?!Ale Lousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11450424254610095173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-12603541354093926932008-01-29T22:29:00.000+00:002008-01-29T22:29:00.000+00:00Pints of the bitter and mild served us last April ...Pints of the bitter and mild served us last April at the Tandle Hill were just about the most perfect beers I've ever had.
