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.......
