We had a very nice meal and some great beers: Emerson's Bookbinder Bitter (a real winner of a beer, a bit like LC Roger's but with a lot more aroma and a bit more body, but about the same alcohol); a Roger's for comparison with the Emerson's; and a Bridge Road Pale Ale (which was an excellent beer, it's just a shame about the spelling errors and incomprehensibility of the blurb on label, which I'm inclined to write to the brewery about ).
More on the visit at a later stage, because there was another very interesting aspect to their Beer List. Time's a bit short now.
Cheers,
Oliver

my missus had been stashing a few more deliveries & put them under the tree.
Great Chrissy present.....or was it B'day present?....either way.
Thx Tipsy, doc & Earle.
Earle, that Choc porter went down a treat, have you posted that recipe on here somewhere? I will be looking!
I hope mine comes out something similar, would like mine to have a hint of honey as well.
Cheers, Mick.
Bum wrote:Urgh. Just poured about a stubby worth of my entry into a 1L jug and it is completely full of head. Never happened to me before and I'm really hoping it is just a bottle issue. Definitely fermented out prior to bottling. Head dies down reasonably quickly and the beer that there is in there does not appear heavily carbed so I'm disinclined to call it a gusher. Basically tastes and smells the same as it did earlier. Dunno what is going on at all.
When you do get around to it, Mick, pour over the sink just in case and lemme know if does happen and I'll send you something else by way of apology.
