I always go for the guest ale I haven't had before. Tim Send a noteboard - 29/01/2010 08:24:04 PM
If there are no guest ales, I'm in the wrong pub. I'll then go for the ale they do have (usually Deuchars), or Guiness as my fallback option.

We will have to do a real ale pub crawl while you're here. Malt & Hops, The Halfway House, The Guildford Arms, Cloisters, The Canny Man's Bar, The Blue Blazer... I'm looking forward to this :D.

You'll just have to visit the beer country and drink them locally. Legolas - 28/01/2010 10:10:10 PM 1110 Views
