Football related? That's a Hell of an away game!

Brooklyn Brewery, Black Chocolate Stout... and The Booking Office in Edinburgh.

Congratulations Fin!

Northern Monk, Further Beyond... and The Old Post Office in Liverpool.

Cheers Keef 🍻

Cheers Elroy. I think of Vault as sour beers so I'm very careful! I'm definitely not a fan of the sours. In one of Vocation's pubs last week, they had some great cans available.

Vocation Brewery, High Voltage... and the Wig and Mitre, Lincoln.

Vault City, Mini Crunch... and The Pen and Wig in Salford.

Vocation Brewery, Full Roast... and The West Gate Inn, Canterbury.

Northern Monk, Infinite Fog... and The Westgate in Halifax.

Named after the brewery cat apparently!

Torrential rain on the motorway between Preston and Bolton enroute Bury today. Haven't seen anything like it for years.

Rewarded with these...

Love Bar Fringe!

From a crawl around Halifax and a beer festival in Wigan to Wetherspoon's in Bury.

At least the Wobbly Bob was on form and just under three quid a pint. The company was fair to middling as well.

Crate of the Rochefort 10 s'il vous plaît!

The country, the world, in the state it's in, only a fool would want his job!

Is that Angela Rayner at the front of the queue? 😂

😂😂

It doesn't take a beer festival to find Otto and Barry in Wigan Central, it just makes it inevitable...

There'll be another one along soon enough!

As wonderful as ever Keef!

Bring back the diesels! Rid the country of overhead line problems.

Been out all afternoon Keef but the site was down this morning. Just had to sign in again.

Staveley itself must have suffered to some extent. A lot of people visited the brewery, not just on Fest days.

Tomorrow a trip to Wigan to set myself up for Bury the following day. The day before Wigan, which works out to be two days, or approximately 48 hours before Bury, Halifax.

I'll be there tomorrow!

Fierce Beer, Dubai Chocolate... and The Egerton Arms in Chelford.

Salt, Drip... and the Egerton Arms in Salford.

Trappistes Rochefort 10... and The Rose of England, Ramsgate.

St.Bernardus Abt12... and the English Lounge in Manchester.

Yes, me. Always a good day out. Still sad about what was done.
