http://goodfoodgoodbeer.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/proxy.png?w=189&h=300 (http://goodfoodgoodbeer.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/proxy.png)I don’t often do this, but there’s been a spate of noteworthy events in our region of late, so here goes:


Leeds’s Friends of Ham (http://www.friendsofham.com/)has won the 2013 Yorkshire Life Pub of The Year – well done, guys. Neighbourhood Restaurant Winner – Eric’s (http://www.ericsrestaurant.co.uk/)* – also serves Magic Rock’s beer, and The Reliance (http://www.the-reliance.co.uk/) has won the Dining Pub of the Year, so it’s win-win for beer all round, there. The full list of winners is here (http://www.yorkshirelife.co.uk/home/2013_yorkshire_life_food_drink_awards_the_winners_ revealed_1_2854120). Congrats to all.
Staying with Friends of Ham, Summer Wine Brewery are hosting a Beer & Food matching night with Bundobust, the new Indian Food/Beer collaboration between Prashad and The Sparrow. It’s on the 21st of October and there’s a few tickets left. Jump over to the FOH website (http://www.friendsofham.com/events/event/summer-wine-brewery-meet-the-brewer-with-a-difference/) for more. Bundobust will open their flagship restaurant in Leeds shortly, and needless to say you’ll be able to read about it here.
Long-time TGS favourites Revolutions Brewing Co are taking over The Brewery Tap on Halloween. They’ve also collaborated with Five Towns Brewery on a ‘Double A-Side’ beer – an IPA called Super Creep and a black version called Scary Monsters which are kicking around Yorkshire now, so keep an eye out.
Kirkstall Brewery (http://www.kirkstallbrewerycompany.com/) have finally opened the doors to their new brewery tap, The Bridge Inn (just on the bridge opposite the brewery, Kirkstall). I’ve yet to drop in (the shame), but you can read Simon Jenkin’s review here. (http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/what-s-on/bar-and-pub-reviews/pub-review-the-old-bridge-kirkstall-1-6110696)
Black Sheep have joined the ranks of Thwaites, Brains and Greene King and installed a new, smaller brewery to experiment upon and brew specials and one-off beers. I’m sure they won’t be the last in our region, either…anyway, you can read more *- and get details of the initial brews – here (http://www.blacksheepbrewery.com/blog/introducing-the-black-sheep-micro-brewery/).
