Absolutely love the stuff. But Ardbeg’s the better visit. Is there an Eddie’s guide to Belgium ? And if not, could David please pin one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddie Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 No piccies, because I didn't take my phone with me (it was a 'no jacket day'). The Memsahib and I have just visited the Lockkeeper's Rest at Sawley Lock (it's accessed from the towpath just on the Leicestershire side of the River Trent at Sawley). It's the first time we have ever been to this little gem of a pub, and it definitely won't be the last. Sue had a couple of pale ales which were very tasty (I stole a sip) and which, for once, were not hop bombs. I had a vanilla stout which was absolutely delicious, and followed that up with something that just screamed out "It's summer" - Lilley's Mango Cider. This is a quite ludicrous beer and ridiculously fruity, but it just seemed 'right' for the day. The stout, I will definitely have again. The mango cider - well, perhaps a half next time.

If you ever fancy a change, for about the same price you can get a bottle of Ardbeg Uigeadail. Smokey and sweet, just a beautiful taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had a Ardbeg before and it’s nice tipple, after that one had a Dalwhinnie then a MacAllan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember back in 1972 the first time I tried a beer from the St Austell brewery. Blooming lovely, and a darned sight better than Devenish (the other local brewery). Proper Job is ok, but I prefer Tribute, Hicks and Mena Dhu. Edit: I've just had a look on the brewery website. They now produce a Saison, a Dubbel and a Tripel - I finally have three reasons to go back to Cornwall. Edited April 21, 2019 by eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Re my above post, I decided to check the brewery shop, but the prices for the dubbel and tripel are outrageous - approximately 100% higher than I could get Westmalle Dubbel and Tripel delivered from Belgium. However, the Saison (called 'Sayzon', incidentally) is available nationally at Tesco. The price for that is a very reasonable 4 for £6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was another I used to get I think it was call ‘Big Job’ or Big Bob which was an IPA around 7.2%. Three of them and the sausages were burnt on the bbq. ?

TuffLuff Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Tiny update but popped into the fan park for the first time in a long while and the Bavaria in there was pretty good for the standards of alcohol purchased at Pride Park. What real ale do they serve in the corner? Just Marstons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
