Bartons garage in Chilwell selling real ale from the barrel at weekends 5-6 choices.
2 or 4 pints container. £3 a pint. Had Oakham citra last week. Thornbridge Jaipur yesterday.
I like the Jaipur I think you need to get the temperature right with it to get the real taste. I had a mini keg once and kept it in the fridge. I took it out and found it tasted nicer a little warmer than fridge temperature.

That you bought a fruit press as well shows admirable dedication.
I’ve got some fruit trees on my allotment and the warm spring has helped them flourish.

I know it’s not beer but I’m brewing some elderflower champagne. Should take about a week to brew.

Their "Days of Creation" sour raspberry ale is a firm favourite here. Not quite a Framboise, but very quaffable. Quite strong for a fruit beer too.
I’ll have a look for that one. Cheers.

I still don't understand why Derbyshire brewery Thornbridge don't appear to have a single pub in Derbyshire, but poo loads in Sheffield and now (apparently) one in Birmingham. It does actually put me off them a little bit!
Anyway, currently sipping a Buxton/Omnipollo Yellow Belly Sundae (their peanut butter & biscuit imperial stout, this time aged in bourbon barrels, at 12%). I say sipping, but I have no self control and it's only taken me about 20 minutes to drink it.
There are some in Derbyshire there is one in Bakewell called the Juniper and one near Monsall Head called the Pack Horse.
However they are a newish brewery so they don’t have lots of pubs. Also pubs in the Peak District are a lot more pricey than Sheffield which is the closest city.
