| Indeed so! Pity my fellow imbibers at the Bluecoat agree with me re the Abbott Reserve
To prove my comment re the Bluecoat, barring a very sweet and sickly Polish plum beer and the ubiquitous Pedigree, which may well suit some amongst you, today's selection was E & S Nettlethrasher and Fireball, Spire Overture, Kelham Island Easy Rider, Ossett Quicksilver and Wentworth Woppa and Venture, ie 7/9 from local breweries.
I can recommend both E & S beers as solid bitters and Easy Rider as very palatable. Unfortunately, to these tastebuds, the Quicksilver's taste was uncomfortably close to lemonade for comfort.
At 3.6, I didn't even venture to taste the Venture. My loss?

| The Sal had another good selection available at the weekend. Sampled Adnams Broadside, Flowers IPA, Wells Bombadier and one that I hadn't tried before Newmans Last Lion of Britain (5.0%) - all very nice indeed. Just missed out on Courage Directors as they sold out before I got to it!

Wanderer, you must be single with such a great social life.
Or have a very understanding wife.

Even retired people can have nagging wives.

So did I! What time were you in? Their braised beef and mash was good too.

| I'm still teaching my partner about real ale but she also liked the Otter. In fact, she dumped the Petterman's Artois for it
