Reiver
Friday night travelling to the Lakes,
Jennings Cumberland Bitter - an old favourite which never disappoints
Saturday:
Black Sheep Finisher 4%, a nice golden pale ale, enjoyed while sitting at the edge of Lake Coniston.
Timothy Taylor Boltmaker 4%
Coniston Bluebird 3.6% nice to accompany a meal but not as good a I remember as my palate seems to veer towards more hop flavour.
Back home, I opened a can of Six degrees North, Omnium, a 4.3% session IPA which had lovely citrus notes and was very pleasant indeed.

i guess it’s not surprising how taste change, but at the end of last year I was going on our annual trip to Hull and I planned a rare visit to Beverley, I was looking forward to a Sam Smiths old brewery bitter from the white horse (Nellies) as I remembered it was lovely. Last visit was 2019 and since then I have been drinking more cans at home, as has everyone, and these have tended to the craft hoppy flavours. I found the SS very bland.

Late Weekend Update! I have tidies up my list which is a bit messy.
Can: Gatekeeper, Buxton Brewery Porter, 4.1%, which is where a Porter should be, easy enough to drink, plenty of coffee/smokey flavour.

Skye Black (Isle of Skye Brewery) 4.5%
to add to:
Bottles/ cans
Loch Ness - Hoppy Ness
Fyne Ales - Workbench
Brewdog - Hazy Jane
Brewdog - Gale
Theakston - Old Peculiar
Fyne Ales - 20th Anniversary Ale (barley wine)

Oh, there’s a blast from the past. I might have to actively seek out a small bottle of barley wine this week!

Many years ago, when I was still at school, I played football for a team that regularly drank Guinness and Barley wine
