Dropped into the George and Dragon at West Haddersley yesterday evening and sampled their White Dragon (a light beer) brewed by the Brown Cow people in the name of Simpson and Simpson.

Almost forgot, dropped into the (Leeds) Brewery Tap on Thursday afternoon for a couple of pints of Midnight Bell.

Had earlier had a pint of Marstons Ashes Ale and a pint of Leeds Bitter in Whitelocks plus a pint of Thwaites Well Well Well in the Scarbrough Arms.

Not a bad drink amongst them, with the Marston and Thwaites brews being new to me.

Finally sampled the Thorne Brewery Best Bitter last night. Both the Old Angel and Tonik had it on. Very enjoyable indeed.

I will be in there today probably...the Old Angel......will give it a go.

Thanks to Wanderer I also had my first Thorne Bitter last night in Tonik.

Very good !

Pleased you enjoyed it mate.

As stated the beer was fine BUT it was noisy.Finished up at Tut & Shive.


Then home on last train.

We walked back past it after seeing you. It had livened up from when we were in. We ended up back in the Old Angel.

Hobgoblin again earlier this evening in the Sun Inn.

No sign of Stand-Offish though.

Had two pints of Thorne bitter in the Old Angel,,,,,,,nice but a bit at the malty/licquorice end for my palate.
Prefer the Ruddles .......especially at 99p a pint.
I'm a cheapskate.

I was in my cot sleeping a busy drinking day off.

Yes - all drinks it would seem.

Had the best pint of summer ale, I've had in a long time this lunch, Arundel's Summer Daze at the Bluecoat, Rotherham.

Some recently sampled brews which are new to me ...

Keltek Even Keel 3.4%
Thornbridge Kipling 5.2%
Brentwood Brewing Company Chockwork Orange 6.5%
Wentworth Challenge 4.3%

also popped into the Sun Inn again on the way home from the match yesterday ... more Hobgoblin
and later Acorn Barnsley Bitter and Cairngorm Trade Winds.

Well I had a pint of beer in The Ship at Muston near Filey yesterday.
It was the last day of the scarecrow festival........no I didn't win.
It was called Muston Scarecrow Ale........real ale.....creamy and right nice too.
