I hope we do .

I am a fan of the Yorkshire Grey Best.

Had a pint of Thorne Mild 4.0% for the first time yesterday (the Gatehouse) - very enjoyable.

Sheffield yesterday ...

RCH East Street Cream 5.0% in the Bankers Draft ... a very nice malty chestnut-coloured bitter from a Somerset brewery whose only ale I'd seen before was Pitchfork.

Bath Ales Gem 4.1% in the Dove & Rainbow ... another malty chestnut-coloured bitter possibly slightly better than the RCH brew. As all the other ales they were serving I'd had before and we'd decided to stop in there a while , I had another and another, oh and another.

Topped off with a pint of Thornbridge Murmansk 7.4% in the Sheffield Tap ... described as a Baltic Porter, it is certainly one to drink in moderation.

get yerselves some good old Suffolk ale from the Adnams brewery - the Southwold bitter is ok but try the Broadside or Explorer draughts if you can find it in your area - nectar....much better than all that northern cats p@@s !

Thanks but Broadside is plentiful oop here. I like a pint of it once I'd taken mi whippet for a walk and tuk coal out o bath

good to see civilisation has reached the northern wastelands, bet you have running water as well ?
ah well,time to start up the tractor...Comeonyoudonny drinkers !

An afternoon in the sunshine yesterday in Holbeck.

Couple of pints of the ever-reliable Leeds Midnight Bell (in the Midnight Bell's courtyard), a pint of Saltaire Triple Chocoholic and a pint of Acorn Barnsley Bitter (at the rear of the Cross Keys ) before venturing back into Leeds.

Pint of Thornbridge Kipling (in the Scarbrough Hotel) a little too fruity for me, then a pint of Black Sheep (in the Prince of Wales which was actually open this time) and finally a pint of Bombadier (in Wetherspoons on the Station - a little unadventurous but the rest were all golden ales and having already had the Kipling I decided one was enough ).

A couple of pints of the Shoulder of Mutton 'house ale' at Kirk Smeaton yesterday.

Split the evening between the Walkabout and the Sal yesterday.

Walkabout ... truly awful beer (no surprise) [sizebut guaranteed the RL.[/size

Sal ... wonderful beer (Adnams Broadside) complimented with waitress service whilst we settled back to watch the football.

The Old Angel had the wonderful Midnight Bell on this afternoon and I was introduced to the very nice Black Hole Titan 4.4% in the Gatehouse too.
