    Also you might want to try a spoonful of local honey per day. Not sure whether it works instantly or you have to build it up for next year but it's something to do with the pollen from local plants being in it in small amounts and building up immunity or something. Worked for me for a while, I randomly had a few years with no hayfever. And my hayfever used to be bad, like giving me rashes and bronchitis bad.

    Very good beer, though very odd. When you drink it bear in mind that it was brewed to be paired with Japanese food.

    It's a right royal pain.Mine suddenly disappeared the first summer I packed up work.Never came back at all.When I did suffer,cortisone injections worked extremely well.But not as well as idleness!
    Back to topic, helped at a small festival today (30 beers and 10 ciders) , sampled most of them but can't remember which was which :slight_smile:

    Not that I come across Cantillon ever round here but the online beer sellers' prices aren't cheap. Anyone have an idea of what the going rates are please?

    Red Willow Brewery Wreckless Pale Ale, hazy, yeasty with a medicinal note in the finish. I handled and poured it carefully too, shame as I've liked their other beers. I'll pick up another when I am on my beer travels next week and give it another go.

    When I got Iris it was £7.19 - but that was almost exactly two years ago. St. Lamvinus was £10.19. Both from beers of europe.

    Mamouche earlier this year was about £12 and Cuvee St. Gilloise about £10 from beermerchants.

    Fullers Vintage Ales 2011 and 2012.

    Not particularly complex either of them to me for the 8.5%, not worth the expense. Would rather have had a Traquair House Ale

    Also meant to add,

    Went to a tasting at Oddbins with Knops Brewery the other day. Robert, the brewer, was a nice fella. That black cork is tasty stuff!

    750ml though, so you can think of it as two and a bit drinks, which makes it not a lot more expensive than beers from the Kernel or somewhere like that.
