Real Ale in Somerset
Cheddar Gorge Festive Night!
Friday -2nd December 2011
Ever popular and a real opportunity to grab some bargains. We’ll be having some case deals in-store on both cider and beer, as well as a nice drop of mulled wine (while it lasts!) to warm your cockles on the night.
All sorts of things to do, plenty for kids and grown ups and it really is worth popping down for the evening, not least to support your local businesses! Open till late......
West Country ales will be offering discounted real ale and cider cases on the night

Beer online
I sell beer online. it should be a fairly easy process......should be. But for the bloody couriers. I'm on my third one now and it they seem to adhere to the industry standard of 'deliver three....break one'.
Why would anyone want to use beer for a football?

Beer Snobbery
You know one thing that still annoys me? Even after years of being in the beer trade? Beer Snobbery.
What to drink. When to drink it. How to drink it. What glass to drink it from. Must be bottle conditioned. Must be room temperature.....and so on, ad nausiam.
As far as i'm concerned it's all down to personal likes and dislikes. Sure there are guidelines but nothing I would say to stick to rigidly. Personally I prefer to drink my beer either at room temp or slightly chilled. Yes, for certain beers I believe that the glassware can enhance the experience but in no way would I attempt to lecture or God forbid convert someone else to what amount to my own personal preferences!
You like drinking stout at 4c. Fine, up to you. You don't like bottle conditioned beers...fine as well. i can understand that. I've tried some truly dreadful bottle conditioned beers in the past that, if they'd been drunk twice by someone then i'd have to question that person's sanity (or tastebuds).
Anyway, rant over. I'm going to drink a Moor Beer Fusion...from a brandy glass...at room temperature........and it'll damn well taste good!

Black IPA
Had two of theses now, one by Moor Beer and the latest, proper Black by St Austells. Still not made up my mind if it's just a gimmick but I suppose at the end of the day anything new is good!
Controversial? A contradiction in terms? Certainly a subject for discussion; is there such a thing as a black India Pale Ale?
Whichever way you look at it, this beer is designed to challenge the sences.
Black as stout, close your eyes and taste and this beer is classic IPA. Powerful hops dominate the restrained chocolate and coffee notes from the carefully selected roasted malt. Whatever you thought you knew about beer, think again!
