Last night’s pub visit started off as a quick drop-in solely
to top up the local CAMRA magazine stand. It was an ideal time; the pub was
fairly quiet and the diners had just finished. And then I saw a rare feat; one
of the local breweries had their new beer perched up upon the bar. Now I had
tried this beer before; but it was in bright form and not at its best. As I
took my first sip, I struggled hard so as not to down the whole beer down in
one. It was gorgeous! Light in colour and very sweet on the tongue, it took
sheer willpower to drive myself on and continue with my deliveries. The
landlady was very friendly, and I had a very nice chat with her about the cask
marque ale trail and the SIBA scheme which allows them to sell a greater choice
of beers through Punch. A very enjoyable pit stop for a weary traveller! Details here.
