By Brian, on August 26th, 2009 Well we actually beat the Aussies in the Ashes last Sunday, so it might be too late to write about Marston’s Ashes Ale (4.1%) – I’m sure there will be a few bottles of it around for a while, though, and I’d recommend you to try it. Marston’s have been supporters of the England cricket […]
By Brian, on August 25th, 2009 Exactly how much is a “twinkle”? We tried a couple of bottles of Maple Moon (4.8%) from Joseph Holt. The bottle says “Full bodied night time pleasure with a twinkle of maple”. So how much is a “twinkle” and how does it compare, say, to a smidgen? Joking aside, I wasn’t too sure about trying […]
By Brian, on August 20th, 2009 Needless to say (I assume) the name Meantime relates to the fact that this brewery is based in Greenwich. The Greenwich Brewery, home of the Meantime Brewing Company, is located a mere 0° 2′ 12″ East of the Greenwich Meridian. Their London Pale Ale (4.3%) is the first of Meantime’s beers I have tried, but […]
By Brian, on August 20th, 2009 A couple of weeks ago we had a company outing to Windsor Races. It was an evening meeting, and as well as the horse racing we enjoyed an excellent supper of fish and chips – but unfortunately the choice from the bar wasn’t up to the same standard. I risked a pint of Tetley’s Smoothflow […]

We thought we would concentrate on beers that we weren’t familiar with, as this might be the only opportunity for a while to sample […]
By Brian, on August 4th, 2009 Saturday before last, Sarah and I had a trip around the Hook Norton Brewery in Oxfordshire. This was an event organised through the CAMRA Hook Norton Complimentary Club – there are a number of these clubs within CAMRA – generally signing up means that you get sent information, and occasionally special offers. The event – […]
By Brian, on August 2nd, 2009 “The Beer To Dine For” was the former name of Greene King Hop (5%). It was launched in March 2007, but I’ve only just come across it – and because I like hoppy beers, I thought I’d give it a go. There is no mention of this beer on the Greene King website – but […]
