most of the back row plus the Wychwood Imperial Red are done now (it was a raffle prize), currently finishing the Taddy Porter with Hacker Pschorr Oktoberfest next then the religious stuff - well it is Sunday. The lurkers at the back are York Guzzler and Saltaire Triple Chocoholic.
Hopefully it will last till midnight but there's a bottle of Laphroaig on standby just in case.
Happy New Year folks. After watching Wycombe at Forest Green and given the proximity, thought I'd drop into the much-lauded Salutation at Ham. Great service, friendly locals and a belting pint of Redemption Fellowship Porter. I've been in better pubs than this, but this is a gem and well worth a visit.
"Breakneck speed we drown ten pints of bitter"
Adnams Broadside, 6.3% in a bottle, at home.
It really is a lovely late evening beer and, often available at £1.50, top abv (alcohol-by-value!)
Church Farm brewery IPA - very nice ...
I am a salmon !!
Rudgate Bitter Sweet at Monks Inn Hemel Hempstead. Just to prove that Rudgate do beers other than the excellent Ruby Mild. It's quite tart, but a nice beer to drink after a couple of dark ones.
I've just joined Alcoholics Anonymous - I still drink, just under a different name.
Drinking Bathams Bitter in the Station Hotel at the Oakengates Golden Triangle.
One of my favourite beers in a definite one of my top 10 pubs.
I need a bit of pleasure before watching Telford thrash us again!
EDIT: We won 1-3
