Beer?

You're not setting the bar very high there. 😂

I've watched it being kegged in Burton on Trent, on the same production line as Carling and a few other so called continental lagers.

On a completely different subject, are you the Katie Wix of Not Going Out and The Windsors fame?

deliberately so, but it sold well through the power of marketing, not saying Clarksons brand doesnt pull the same way, but they didnt dump as much money behind it as the keggers at Burton did.

and no Im not, thats an L not an I anyway...though fwiw my friends did often use to nickname me Daisy...but I wont expand more than that on it

I've been to the local spoons this afternoon for their beer festival, no pictures but I've had these two -

Peerless Knee Buckler IPA 5.2%

Vale Pitch Perfect IPA 5%

Both of them are hoppy in a slightly restrained way, and the Vale tasted a couple of percent stronger than it's actual abv.

And as a Brucie bonus they were cask style rather than keg, so smooth instead of fizzy, and they slipped down very easily.

Traditional British cask IPAs? Used to love a Deuchars IPA before the bastards at Heineken buggered everything up

Slightly hoppier than Marston's Pedigree, and a similar colour, carbonation was definitely cask rather than keg.

the spoons festival is all cask, but only the Pitch Perfect was part of the festival and more a traditional British IPA imo, the Knee buckler is made with exclusively american hops so wont be like that.

I'm not sure if I've had this one before, I'll definitely be having it again though, nice and bitter like a typical west coast.
