Me too, I'd have stuck to the spirits

Did I tell you about the service?

Yeah I know, it makes you wonder where they dug some of the bar staff up from

They had lost the plot.

Loved it at the Cemetery Hotel. Beer was good and the food was spot on. It could have done with the six who resembled, walking wise, the cast from Michael Jacksons Thriller turning up. I would have gladly stood them a drink.

First time in recent years on a jaunt to Rochdale that I've not called in at the Cemetary.
(If you go back far enough on this board, some of these jokes or similar have been done before when I've mentioned the place

).

CONFIRMED TOAD BREWERY IS NO MORE. been confirmed on the toad brewery facebook page by marc who worked there that the toad is no more. apparently its all been emptied this week.

Very sad news indeed. when you think how much they sold on donny rovers match days, it makes you wonder how the hell they didnt make it.

didnt concentrate on a few good beers for me, had far too many. i loved toad mature, and i also loved the m & r chocolate stout. my friends all loved the golden angel, although i didnt like that one.

toad will be missed, gutted about the news

And what is to happen to the Cask Corner Dive Bar?

Cask Corner is ok. although they had the same owners, i believe the businesses were run under seperate umbrellas.

mark says on the post on the toad, that he can be found at cask corner now.

possibly he pulled the decision if toad was losing money. was some cracking ales on two weekends ago and i heard a rumour that the toad was no more then.

From the Doncaster & District CAMRA site:

Doncaster & District CAMRA regret to inform readers of this website that Toad Brewery have ceased production. There are some Toad beers still in circulation and when these are gone, that will be it!

Even though they've only been around a short while, they will be missed.

Cask Corner is not affected by this.

Day out last Wednesday at the Great Yorkshire Show (Harrogate) with both Black Sheep and Theakstons again represented.

Had a couple of pints of Black Sheep Ale but once again Theakstons get top marks for their 'have a drink and donate to charity' policy. They also had two brews available that were new to me which was an added bonus ...

Lightfoot, a gold coloured bitter at 4.1% which had peach and honey flavours and Crime of Passion an amber ale at 4.2% which was my sort of 'poison'.
