Only Adnams ales though.

Any old bar can pick up stock Brooklyn beer and charge £5 a bottle. Coors Light.. people are crazy its water.

It’s a good choice because the beer is really full bodied and thick. I’ve tried it with a BrewDog Paradox which worked ok but the beer didn’t have the body for it to be really good. I’ve got plans for BCS so watch this space :)

I’ve always loved the place, but haven’t been for a bit sadly.

Or would all that sugar ice-cream balance it out? Got to be worth a go.

TIW — is the bottled version a favourite of yours? I’ve never liked it much, but I can see that it would be a nice surprise where you were expecting Budweiser.

Needless to say, it will be visited.
