I like Tomos' beers - I wish they'd gone for a less lary pump clip on that 'un though. Their new labels/clips are very nice indeed, iirc.

Purple Moose - Dark Side of the Moose. Dark crystal malts and Bramling Cross hops. It's nice with a decent finish but could do with a bit more body I rec.

Yup, although I think it has that fuller body on draught, iirc. Tangentially related, their brewery shop in Porthmadog is worth a visit if you're ever over that way. With a lunch at their joint venture pub, The Australia, of course.

I spotted a Purple Moose shop in Criccieth, there was also a fine looking record shop but no one else in the car was that interested in beer and vinyl, kids tsk!

Just back from The Long Man. A few pints of some brownish stuff and a few more of some amber stuff. Not necessarily in that exact order. Nite nite xxx

It's a comprehensive and entertaining write up like this that really makes this thread what it is...


Drivel.

There's something about that brewery that I really like..

Their Ape Ale is decent too, iirc.

For once, I resisted resistance and went to see what The Harp had to offer this evening. Answer: Kernel IPA 'vic secret / saison. What a lovely thirst-quenching fruit bowl of a beer; dry enough to wipe one's forehead in a jam-packed hostelry but worth every Mossirlami for taste. The Murraymint of beer.

Does your hand always change colour to match the beer? Let's see you drinking a milk stout...

Reminds me of the old 'un about the Sunday Service in church where the vicar, after glancing around the congregation leans toward the verger and says
"Is that Fanny Green over there?" and the verger replies 'No sir, it's the light shining through the stained glass windows'.
Yes, I know...over there >>>>>>>>>>>>
But, to answer your question, Rich, usually I'm ashen faced after parting with North of 3 Mossirlamis for a pint - all colour has drained to my extremities I guess! Couple that with the illusion of trying to hold a pint steady to one's lips on the crowded 07:43 from Weybridge to Waterloo and the picture of The Harp 'after work' is complete. Pleasurable madness.
