You have to laugh
I first thought this said
Ale Cider Mead…


When I was young I had a credo about London: live there in my 20s and move out in my 30s, which is what I did. My time in London coincided with the rise of Wetherspoons and I used to spend a lot of time in the White Lion of Mortimer in Finsbury Park, a place where I discovered to my surprise that I enjoyed cask beer. As for London beer though, I think one of the few places I was aware of it was at the Fuller’s pub The Ship in Soho, otherwise that was it though I do recall driving my motorbike past Young’s at the end of the 1980s and being enthralled by the smell of brewing. Now of course, London is undergoing a massive brewing renaissance and you can read my take on it in today’s Daily Telegraph here (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/foodanddrink/9483702/Londons-beer-renaissance.html). Oh and while I’m at it, Will Hawkes’ Craft Beer London app is also well worth getting, and you can find more info here (http://craftbeerlondon.bluecrowmedia.com/).https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3076725205410370436-2514946879951923270?l=maltworms.blogspot.com
