    Visited the Farne Islands, popped into a gastropub not far from the departure point after returning.
    3 local beers, 2 local breweries all as dull as the proverbial. Even a local 'craft' brewery's offering should have been sued by ditchwater for defamation of character.

    Going to have one before hitting the hay
    Also to raise a glass to Scotland (Tempest one of their finest breweries)
    & their take on the Belgian Farmhouse
    A style that is very much growing on me

    CHEERS ZIMBO!


    actually as I'm drinking this Its getting funkier & funkier
    I think I'm going to turn into George Clinton with the last mouthful :wink:

    as much as you have my sympathy having to suffer a woefully dull beer
    this to is going through my mind
    Shep neame, clear bottle, pale ale... what did you expect
    Sydney Opera House, perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically...? :stuck_out_tongue:

    Yes! A truth for the ages, and one that every Zealot of Beer is familiar with.....

    Right, I've cracked a Point IPA - totally worth 80p :slight_smile:

    So that means it's a Yes vote then?

    Fair enough, a couple of those beavertown cans for me , very nice they are too. Gamma ray and 8 ball, preferred the gamma ray

    I hope after independence we can have some sort of cross border beer trading going on, as it would be a shame for that to stop :grimacing:

    Green Flash 30th Street Pale Ale & NoLi Noble Hop Extra Pale Ale, two very drinkable beers. Wish I had a few more bottles.

    had those guiness bottles last night, didn't think much of them although the stronger one was better

    I had imbibed a fair bit of wine though so might have to try them again :open_mouth:

    I hope the No vote wins. Break-ups are always messy.

    In the event of a yes vote, all trades will be completed Cold War spy film stylee at checkpoints along Hadrian's Wall.

    This Cromarty AKA is a well balanced spritely moving contender
    Big pine aroma then the taste takes you through a journey,
    toffee resinous that warms with fruit then citrus then bitterness WOW
