Oxford Beer Festival
..and other lies I told my mother.
Beers I drank:
Wentworth's Oatmeal Stout;I drink Youngs' oatmeal stout regularly, this was a lot darker more like Youngs' chocolate stout
Trossachs Craft Ginger Ale; I always like ginger ale
Kelham Island's Pale Rider;CAMRA Champion Beer of Britain 2004
Halifax Steam's Luftkissenfahrzeug;Bavarian-style lager.Made a nice change, translation anybody?
a short steak pasty intermission
Fenland's Hereward's Wake;My mate Kev wanted to try this based on its name alone,not bad,perhaps a warning as we were on our way to try..
Nethergate's Old Growler;Well I guess I don't like porter. After trying it, as I got served first, I prompted Kev to try mine before he ordered, so at least one of us was saved. Not even another pasty could save this.
Hopdaemon's Skrimshander;this is more like it
Pictish's Samhain Stout;ah| blessed stout
and that's all I had time for, nothing left but memories and the festival glass,portraying a hop bedecked bull's head.
"Why no mother,I found it in a charity shop and thought it rather pretty"
