The Third Go

Right its been a while since I had a go at this blogin lark......
 A few weeks ago got invited to a Brewery opening for Bridgehouse and to be honest I got in a bit of a mess as the IPA was as good as I've had and Free did go to a new pub after in Meanwood then a couple in Leeds the travel home wasn't fun . Seen as this is about getting good beer on the cheap these events are good.I would love to pay full price all the time but needs must.
 I did have a Little trip to The Grove in Huddersfield because I like Big boy beers I would rather have three or four %7/8 beers than a dozen weaker ones and it works out cheaper ..... This oh its too strong bull is just rubbish Treat With Respect and you should be fine .... I had a real nice Gouden Carolus Winter Ale 10.5% almost Dandelion and Burdock in taste and went down too easy I wanted a pint but as its a long way home via a dodgy guided bus route that mixes up all the beer so its better if I don't have too much . (don't always work) but I try .....
Will hopefully be going to Ostend in new year as a Xmas Present from my Folks so should be fun and a nice Case of Brewdog Chaos Theory 7.1% IPA nice taste and too easy to drink though it is making this blog  look ok ......

  Right I typed save up and go for stronger beers take your time with them and enjoy .....

Cheers Have fun Dave......

Beer : A Skint Blokes Guide- Second Blog

Past couple of weeks have been pretty good a trip to Elland Brewery and Kieghley Beer Festival . Both pretty good if your skint . Paid my 2pound to the drinking club I'm a member off for the privilege of being at Dave Sanders leaving do and all I can say is cracking beer and what to expect when he and partners set up Kirkstall Brewery at about Xmas. Oak ageing and some beasts are to be expected . I hope the standard does not fall at Elland .The picture is of a few people including  who guested on Dave Hodsons radio show Link at bottom of page .....

Keithley as it should be spelt had there beer fest which went really well a nice selection of British beers Spent my 10 quid for starter pack which kept me going for a while then the look started 1st someone left there token on a table which made for 1 American beer the very nice Saranac Imperial Stout at 9% every thing you want from a Imp Stout warming drinkable with a nice balance of Chocolate and Liquorish taste . A special mention goes to the bloke I met from The Brew Co in Sheffield really nice to Talk to him and his beer Hop Monster was Pretty good as well . Some friends went home and left me there tokens but as the Saranac was a beast it was time to go watch Leeds RL lose to the Pies so a couple of take outs were in order so a bottle of imp Stout and Unita Barley wine will help winter days . Though did forget to cash in the glass I think but was a tad tiddly by then .Roll on the next chance for a beer ....RIP Terry Newton ....

Have fun Pubcrawler.......

First Blog

Having never done a blog/diary or put fingers to key board in any form . This blog will have spelling mistakes inacurices and not a lot of photos editing and fancy bits . It will go off on tangents and my computor will crash when I up load . It will be about Beer Music and RL none of that Chavball Shite and the music will be like my beer Real and hand crafted .
This year I have been that busy that I will be glad to get a job for the rest what with volunteering music/beer fests  and looking for yetis/jobs . Seen as the people who run the country have killed of all the jobs and push the price of everything up and up. My local sells shit beer at posh prices so I have to catch a bus to Leeds or Halifax as Pudsey is a desert for real ale it needs a Spoons  . So I will be off to Elland back for a beer at the brewery as it seems like a good thing . I'll be there with a drinking club a good thing as I don't have to rely on my mate's who class Pudsey as good drinking. The the dilemma is tonight do I get on the bus Knowing chavball will be on everywhere and spend more than I've got on average beer and transport or just stay local spend more than I've got or average beer! . Then I should stop in my cellar is pretty good but I like pubs. Just because a pub has good beer does that make it a good pub? and just because the pubs beer is crap does it become crap?.
 That will do for the first blog I will leave with the famous word of Yosser Hughes "Giz us a job I can do that "......  yours Pubcrawler....
