New Fullers Past Masters

Excellent

Past Masters beers have been good, Fullers tread a good line between traditional brewer with tied estate and making interesting brews that most people have never tried before. Even if they do a bunch of fairly boring seasonals they still put out some excellent brews

 

The Imperial Stout has already been released. Unless I imagined drinking it.

 

Will they be relatively widely available or only available to Fuller's groupies?

 

You know it. I should be able to dig up a few nice things in exchange. Will BM you.

 

No, definitely the Imperial Stout. It was one of the beers served at the British Guild of Beer Writers 12th anniversary bash about a month back.

I was involved with the 1966 Strong Ale. The Imperial Stout was a collaboration with Melissa Cole.

 

It was on at Peterborough BF last month

 

Broke into the Fullers premises and drank the imperial stout straight out of the conditioning tank so it's obviously been released.

 

I'll be traveling to London in the middle of October. Any chance either of these will still be around? I don't know how quickly these sell out.

I'd love to try either, especially the stout.

 

Almost certainly will be available. The Parcel Yard at Kings Cross would be as good a place as any to find it but many Fullers pubs will have it.

 

I'm sorry, I don't mean to go too far off topic, but Fuller's pubs generally only serve Fuller's, correct? I saw on the comprehensive "Visiting London" thread that there's a pub near my hotel called The Churchill Arms and their website seems to only feature Fuller's beers. I plan to go there, so that should allow me to knock a lot of the Fuller's beers off of my Must Try list?

Thanks all.

 

It's what's called a tied house - a pub owned by Fullers and selling their beers.

 

The Churchill Arms is a great pub, well worth visiting.
