A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Just the 2 again. New Year's resolution: must drink more!
The ever excellent Oakham Bishops Farewell and BOTW Hop Back Redsells EKG. An amber ale whose flavour punches above its 3.9% strength but unmistakably Hop Back.
Allgates - Citra. Had a pint of this in Cask in Castlefield with a takeaway from the chippy next door.
Decent session in The Gunmakers EC1 enriched by a very good pint of Redemption Fellowship Porter ,my BOTW
