Ditto. Must get there Thursday I think! Not much left for those who have proper jobs and can't get there on a weekday. :(

Did try the Foundry chocolate vanilla porter though. Good if you like warm alcoholic ice cream! :wacko:

Yeah, by sat evening, things were a little bit.... bare. For instance - the entire cider bar was gone. Everything. No so much as a mouldy apple :(

Probably had about 15 odd bitters still available so I did try a few :) the 10% pilsner on the foreign stand was quite memorable :lol: - I too wanted to try the choc vanilla porter but it was gone by the time I reached the bar.

Only one "duffer" as far as I can remember - I think the grain bill consisted of a small amount of MO and 50 kilos of joinery floor sweepings ! to say it was "woody" was a disservice to trees.....

I'll have to look at the program to see which one it was.

A final congrats must go to the Bratwurst man for keeping me (vaguely) level with a constant supply of food ! :lol:

(excuse the focus, but the camerman was enjoying a pint of skullcracker like I was in the pic...) :lol:
