As one who in his earlier swally years survived on McEwans Export, finding places like the Ribs of Beef with so many real ales to sample, was always a very good reason to cruise all the way up to Norwich YS My personal favourite will always be Adnams Broadside....oh if only To all who do go enjoy!

CooWee Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Well that got me interested Paul, I don't think I have ever heard of Bitter & Twisted but it looks a beer to try in the future, try it in Melbourne if I can get out there again, would be nice. I have just had a little trip down memory lane finding out where they sell it there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Keith, You got me thinking of memory lane. Bars open 5pm till 10pm 1/6d a pint 1/9d a Quarter Gill dram. Old style Beer Festivals?...Nah pub crawls on a seterday nicht were the order of the day. Getting totaly pickled( not me I may add ) for well under a Quid. I did go to a beer festival once! In Linlithgow in the Four Marys. They wee plastic sampler cups were no fur me Iain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CooWee Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 My personal baptism was drinking Flowers Bitter in Stratford after getting there on the old Midland Red service and an Hogmanay in Musselburgh (Baile nam Feusgan) that was the best I ever went to. I used to like McEwans Export. I didn't really know the Gaelic, I was just checking I had spelt Musselburgh correctly and that was alongside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
