Starting early then Nath. I'm gonna try and hold off until a bit later. Ended up having a few last night as a new barrel has cleared and tasting great.

I tried that Stonehenge Ale last night by the way. Thought was nice but a little bland for me, what do you think?

Anyone tried T.E.A (Traditional English Ale)? Bottle conditioned and available from Waitrose.. rather lovely, like a slightly more tangy Timothy Taylor's Landlord.

Hi Tony, thats from the hogs back brewery isn't it? I used to work just down the road from there, just outside Guildford.
People often confused it with the Hop back brewery, home of summer lightning, which is just down the road from where I now live. Yum.

nath .. good question, if you hadn't asked it.. I would have :o)
Seems like a damned good idea though.
Now... how to convince the missus that we need to move...

Yeah but unfortunately they don't do brewery tours at the hop back so not really much of an advantage. There are so many breweries (and micro) about these days you are probably living very close to one any how.
I am going to try and see if they will give me some yeast though!

Excellent idea!
I've never had the nerve to ask anyone!
