Beer?

[Maverick Goose]

When changing trains at Lime Street it's always a good idea to make time for The Ship And Mitre

I've heard that's a boss pub!There's a couple of exhibitions at Tate Liverpool I want to see, so that's as good an excuse as any to check out a few watering holes in the 'pool.

So all the beer that’s been bottled from Brewdogs new Overworks brand - their sour/mixed fermentation stuff - has to be thrown away....

Fist disappointment from Magic Rock this evening. Clowns vs Robots, an India Pale Lager. Couldn’t drink it. Funny biscuity flavour.

Never had you down as a Johnny Hates Jazz fan.

My reading is the opposite - aimed for expensive bespoke and let down by a supplier. They've rescued some of the situation by going for cheap ordinary bottles and kegs .

A couple of pints of Enville Ale at the Himley floodlit cricket last night. About what you would pay in an upmarket pub around here so mustn't grumble. A nice golden Summer beer available all year round.

@Daddy Pig I left a couple of bottles for you with my folks. No Mucklows this time; shop didn't have any. Seem to recall you were leaving N Abbot? Drop me a PM.

Is there such a thing as Scavenger Rights where you are?

Sorta modern day Whisky Galore

I had a couple of cask beers from Vibrant Forest earlier in the week. The first, Pupa, had a rich tropical front and was rather lovely. A New Forest outfit. Good stuff that went off the second I recommended it to someone else. The second was a single hop Citra. Disappointing after the Pupa, I just retasted it tonight and decided that it was a jolly good beer. Coloured like a cloudy best, it gives a pretty intense citra flavour. Impressive little brewery, methinks.

And last night, a Bristol Beer Factory Milk Stout.

A rich and creamy ''dessert'' beer. Not the lushest of lushes, but lush nonethelush.

I tried a couple more tonight, but that's another story.

Good people of the beer thread...

...I am off to London in a week, arriving Sunday (but Euston's closed so anybody's guess when) and staying Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday on South Bank (near Tate Modern) and I want to take in some brewery taps and find some new crafty, modern beery places. Any advice appreciated.
