I quite like the Wells Bombardier range of beers, standard Bombardier was one of the first real ales i remember drinking and Bombardier Satanic Mills is a cracking dark ale, So when i saw Burning Gold on the shelf in the supermarket i thought i better give it a go and complete my Wells Bombardier […]

I’ve been saving this one for a special occasion as it’s not cheap and i had heard it was pretty special, well the special occasion came when England won the Ashes, they don’t come much more special than that. As much as i love lip smacking and tongue tingling hoppy beers i love dark rich […]

I’ve been a fan of Flying Dog beers for a while but they are a bit of a pain to get hold of, luckily Tesco have now started to stock two of them so they are easy to get hold of (thanks to eurodog and bierenco, if u can’t find it get it from beermerchants) […]

There seems to be few new Adnams beers making it into the shops lately, and this is no bad thing as they are generally pretty excellent and tasty session beers. Again it comes in their new eco friendly brown bottle and a % of the profits of the beer go to support the prostate cancer […]

These two beauties were very kindly sent to me by @daas_beer on twitter. You might not have guessed it from here but I do love belgian beers and Belgian style beers and I tend to drink them a lot in the summer, the problem (if you can call it that) lately has been that I have […]
