This was really special, which usually means they'll have sold out and I'll never find any more... :thumbs:

Brewdog Punk IPA. Nice for a bottled beer, though where it falls down is at nearly 6% it didn't leave me wanting another... :thumbs:

Only problem with Brewdog is it comes as keg or bottled. There's no cask ale... :whistle:

I really do fancy that, but Daily Driver re-assembly has to take priority this year. That said, I did as usual meet our esteemed former Spotlight/Sidelights editor at the country’s largest Beer Festival recently.
I detoured via Earls Court on the way and was somewhat troubled to see that the iconic exhibition centre (home of the A30 & A35 launches) has now been completely erased. I naively thought there was a plan to retain the façade. We raised several glasses to commemorate its passing. Sigh.

It's remains Something which happens in the Red Lion Hotel of Stratford on Thames :

I have take a shower, and when I went out from the bathroom, a barmaid opens the door of the room and said : "Your continental, Sir !" and she put my breakfeast on the table !

But I was naked and just fixed by the surprise !

It was an old barmaid . . .

I hope my English is not to poor ! :oops:
