Well done. It is very interesting travelling around these days, rarely get further south than Birmingham these days. I think I should get myself over to Sheffield more....

Very good. You have few more bitters than me. I think that is Manchester's tast in beer coming through. It appears to me, what sells up here are lighter coloured, happier beers, or right at the other end, very Strong Stouts.
Bristol Beer Factory day out?

We went to the West Country to watch a Bristol City game and the beer factory was a suitable place to have lunch and yes we stayed for a few.
I have noticed during my travels that there is regional difference in beer types available. One thing that seems consistent is the absence of mild. I do like a mild and it is unusual to find it.

You see mild a bit in Manchester on our beer to trip to Birmingham it waisting slmost completely, which is a bit odd!

It was funny, I could see exactly where you'd had your trip to Weston (and in which order you did the pubs) in that list.
I'm also a fan of mild, and hadn't had one this year yet (although I did have a bitter that tasted like mild in April), but for the last two weeks the Fork n Ale has had a mild on: good chemistry last week, and pitchfork on Thursday.

Another trip planned for Feb yet to decide whether we stay in Weston on Bristol. Hotel prices will determine it I guess

No/Lo 24. (bottle) Lucky Saint Unfiltered Lager (0.5%). Recommended to me by my brother, and very nice.
Cans 23. (can) Bristol Beer Factory Southville Hop (6.5%). Caught me off guard a bit - I didn't notice the ABV until it was nearly finished. 24. (can) Bristol Beer Factory Independence (4.6%) 25. (can) Bew York Fairytale of Brew York (4.9%). Stollen milk stout, apparently - this sounded delicious on the website, but was a bit on the engine oil side in real life.
Bottles 43. (bottle) Otter Bright (4.3%) 44. (bottle) Butcombe Adam Henson's Rare Breed (4.2%). I've already had this on draught already this year, but that was after I'd topped 50, so onto the bottles list it goes. Very nice.

A day out in London helped me find three more cask beers
Bloomsbury bitter from Redemption
Crouch Vale Yakima Gold
And London Pride from Fullers
Ten a trip to see Cambridge United yesterday coincided with a Cambridge camra beer festival so very lucky
Barsham Brewery Norfolk Topper very sharp but easy drinking pale Greene King IPA I am so surprised that I have reached November and only just had this as it is very common in Hertford. Rocket Ale Black Knight a very good mild NEne valley brewery Simple pleasure which for me was the best of the day So 108 in total
