Late to the party. I couldn't see the visited column at first and then realised it was because I wasn't signed in to the main site on my mobile. A surprising 26 for me, better than expected. I'm...

Sorry to hear this, I can't claim to know the chap personally but I always enjoyed reading his reviews.

I was in Wirksworth today so thought I'd take the opportunity to take a photo of the (former) Blacks Head pub with its new signage - only to find that all the signage still refers to it as the Blacks...

Interesting, and as a lot of pubs do seem to be named after kings and queens, that explanation does make sense.

I've driven past a Moorcock Inn a few times, always amuses me.

These were on a weekly special buy and will now be long gone.

If anyone fancies some crafty cans, Brew by Numbers have a deal with Groupon whereby you can get a mixed box of their goodies - 12 cans for £19 (normal price £35, apparently). It does seem to...

From what I have heard, I believe general consensus was that the "Black Boy" name related to children being sent up chimneys and coming back down covered in soot. A different form of slavery, I...

Probably the best approach would be if you were interested in specific photographs, to contact the contributor directly and ask them if they are happy to provide you with a copy. If you are reusing...

If BITE was a family pet, it would have been taken to the vet and put out of its misery by now. I note the relaunch mentioned above never happened and you don't get the popup advertising it anymore....

Lidl have the box of 6 Belgian beers back in at the moment for £11.99. On the weekly special, so won't be around for too long.

That looks a better line-up than when I was tempted by a Flavourly special offer. Quite a few of mine were unique-to-Flavourly collaborations including a weird (and borderline nasty) cola style...

:D:D:D

Another two brand new (to me) venues in September bringing my total to a rather poor 34 for the year so far. Also visited a previously experienced venue that has since changed hands - tempted to...

Seconded!

57 Thomas Street is now Fierce Bar.

Just two new pubs since lockdown, both on a short trip to London, bringing my year to date up to 32.

Also done a few revisits to familiar pubs to get the lay of the land post lockdown, so feeling...

Craft Beer Co

Had a few pub visits in August, but this one during a short stay in London stands out for me as pub of the month. Great selection, decent quality, proper pub-like experience during...

Why people still choose to work for this company is beyond me. They must enjoy living life on the edge.

Bar Legion is reopening tomorrow as Real Crafty.

Sad times, hope they make it through.

I bought all the ones I have not had before, and a couple of repeat offenders from previous beer festivals that I knew I would be happy to have again (especially at those prices). I wasn't mad keen...

Lidl are doing another British Craft Beer Festival from Thursday 6th August. For those who are not familiar with Lidl, this will be time limited in terms of availability as there are new offers and...

I've heard a rumour that the 3-for-£5 deal at M&S might now be over. Glad I stocked up when I did if that is the case!

If it's a mistake then it's definitely not just limited to one store.
