cackleberry Sep 2024 6:13pm, 7 Sep 2024 4,027 posts	Quote Pin cackleberry Should have stuck to keeping a beer list. Discovered a new pub in town that boasts 8 pumps, all real/craft beers; a fridge full of cans and around 20 ciders. I'm even testing the stouts.

About This Thread

Maintained by Ocelot Spleens

and here we are in 2025....

I still really like a pint.

I think this is not too controversial health wise, besides it's quality I prefer not volume.

Lots of beers about these days. I interpret it as different beers within 2025, and you can, if you like; avoid beers you have had before, but as ever the list is yours to do what you like.

Also interesting to see how variable local areas are!
