A couple of days ago I had a very enjoyable pint of Copper Top a darkish creamy beer from the Old Dairy Brewery.
The main taste I found of the beer was a creamy milky flavour and it went down very well with me and I hope to try a few more of their ales over the course of time.
I wan to wish all my readers a very happy new year and hope that 2012 will be better than 2011 was for them,
I hope to find the perfect ale in 2011.
Yesterday I tried a very nice pint of Hopdaemon’s Green Daemon and very enjoyable it was to.
I found it had a fruity and spicy taste a very nice beer for a cold winter’s evening and very much look forward to trying it once again.
The other day I had a pint or two of a very nice beer called East Street Cream from the RCH Brewery and it was extremely nice it was to.
I found the beer was very fruity, with a taste of berries and a smoothy taste. I look forward to trying this beer again.
Over the August Bank Holiday I attended and help with the 3 annual East Kent Railway beer and cider festival, and once again an improvement over last years event.
This year we had a better variety of ale types with two dark beers served.
Over the August Bank Holiday period I attended and helped out with the 2nd East Kent Railways Real Ale and Cider festival and found it even better than the first one.
I drank many fine ales and ciders and will look forward to next years festival.
The other day I had a couple of pints of some very nice stout called Dogwatch from the Nelson Brewery and very tasty it was as well.
This stout did not have the normal Nelson Brewery distinct taste of their other beers I have tried over the years, and I would enjoy having this beer again in the future.
The term Dog Watch is a naval term for two short work periods, the first between 16:00 and 18:00 and the second between 18:00 and 20:00 Hours.
Over the weekend I attended and helped out at the first ever East Kent Railway Beer Festival and had a superb time drinking some very nice ales.
Also the members of the railway club seemed very friendly and I look forward with interest to their next beer festival.
The other day I tried a couple of pints of Skinner’s Cornish Knocker ale and very tasty it was, with a slight tangy taste to it.
For some extra information a Knocker was a Tin Mine Fairy who lived down the mines and used to guide the miners to the rich veins of tin with their knocking.
The miners used to repay them by leaving them the crust from their pasties.
The other day in the House of Commons their was a vote on the budget to increase alcohol duty which went through with 296 voting in favour of this shameful betrayal and 232 voting the right way.
Yet the very same MPs who voted for this are the same MPs who enjoy a subsidised bar in the Houses of Parliament, is this right?
