SU beer festival in a bit with beer and cider from all over t'world.
Looks fucking expensive though, so any suggestions of one or two to look out for?!
You in Plymouth mate or is a there a another beer festival on the same day? If your into Cider then Burrow Hill is fantastic, had one of them earlier and for ale i had a 'full bore'. That was fucking strong, good though! Lecturer took a dislike to me bringing a beer to my lecture  |

This is the water.
And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.

I paid £90 for a bottle of champagne.
Twice in one night.

Agreed, cracking beer. In fact, there aren't many Fuller's beers i've tried that I don't like. London Pride on tap is my choice if it's available, which not may places in Swindon do (I can only think of the Rolleston and Check Inn) |

Currently sitting in an Irish bar in New York drinking Guinness, $8 a pint, the prices have rocketed here in just a year.
Fly back tonight and looking forward to a good pint of British bitter.

Definitely with you there on the Honeydew - although my second choice would be Hopback Spring Zing. Yum! |

I'm not sure I could name my favourite beer, and thats the best thing about the resurgence in British ale, there is so much variety depending on where you are, the time of year etc. Theres nothing better than going into a nice country pub and choosing a new ale that you haven't seen before. Some are better than others, obviously, but its the variety and choice that really appeals to me.
Having said that, look out for Braydon ales, never had a bad one of those !

All Fullers beers are damn good, I loved them when I lived in London many moons ago, Hoegaarden on the other hand is lemon flavoured pisswater many many many better belgian beers out there than than stuff. |
