    How much is it? I only had a taster. I probably wouldn't pick it up again regardless of the price because there are far better belgians for only a couple of quid. I'm all for more free tasters though!

    Just cracked a Thwaites Smooth. Probably naff, but it was only 59p!

    So... Update. I had it last night and it was kinda bad. Incredibly thin and even was slightly sour. Pretty much no stout characteristics came through.

    Yeah, sounds like a Hardknott beer. Most of their output is poor quality homebrew.

    actually better than anything in Oakham's bottled stable.

    I think it's somewhere in between 4 and 5 quid.

    Where did I put that barrel-aged piss...

    At least the barrel-aged piss would have fewer calories.

    OK, just finished a Liefman's Cuvee Brut. Haven't had one for ages but it is superb - love that sour cherry hit!

    Now on a Weihenstephaner Vitus.

    Brooklyn Sorachi Ace, Sheffield Tap.
    Thornbridge Jaipur (keg), Cellar Door, Beauchief Hotel, Sheffield.
    Thornbridge Tzara (keg), Jaipur (cask), Cross Scythes, Sheffield.
    Thornbridge Tzara (keg), Baize (cask), Jaipur (keg), Stag's Head, Sheffield.

    Three Thornbridge places new to me, all well worth a visit.

    Deep-fried black pudding at the Stag was worldy. Just needed a splash of Hendo's to set it off.

    Finally opened the Cambridge Moonshine Ison. An odd one, strong and hoppy but I think it's one of those ones only worth bothering with fresh. This one was quite muddy and oily.
