    Bit like the scouts, tying knots and getting boy scouts out of horses hooves, that sort of thing?

    My local taproom basically let me have all I could drink on draft for £25 :joy:

    The manager is a mate though.

    For those with very deep pockets, some Trillium beer has turned up in the UK.  I recall seeing someone posting about it on here, may have been @SomervilleAddick

    It is lovely beer but that's even more expensive than the Other Half shipment that Cloudwater brought in to the country recently.... GhostWhale has been saying it's getting some too, so it might pop up in a few places...

    Other Half has started up a 'London' Instagram account which says 'stay tuned for some big news...'... Would be great to have them here...

    Spoons selling their Ale at 99p per pint apparently to clear stock ahead of lockdown.  Not been in myself to confirm this though.

    Doom Bar was only £1.19 a pint at my local Spoons before lockdown was announced.

     cloudwater have previously sold Trillium in London, but yeah it’s rare in the UK. 

    I was offered some Other Half by one of my dealers the other week but baulked at the £23 a bottle price. Enjoyed a fair few other half beers. Collabs seem to be easier to come by.

    Pleasant afternoon yesterday in Buxton and Red Willow tap rooms.

    These were a little something different over the weekend. Not as tart as some of the more fruity sours. Bottom one, really nice and smooth.

    Cloudwater is releasing a limited number of Trillium cans tomorrow to its mailing list....promised myself I wouldn't buy any more beer this year, but might have to make an exception for this....

    These arrived today, I'm guessing that they were part of the same shipment.

    I'm saving these for my birthday lockdown.

    Nice one @PopIcon ...presume they were from the place you linked further up the chain? Cloudwater said (on it's Instagram) that it would have different beers from everyone else...  Enjoy, cheers!

    Famous in the 60s and 70s its back - with a new recipe

    We asked legendary beer sommelier Jane Peyton to tell us what she thought of the Party Seven.

    "The Party Seven starts with a burst of tangerine and orange blossom in the aroma. This is repeated in the flavour with orange, grapefruit, and pine overlaying a base of malt biscuits. Smooth on the palate, the beer has a firm bitterness upfront which lingers on the finish."

    Barley wine gents please. The weakened Gold Label I'll still have in honour of the old man at new year but where can I find the Stingo's and others of the past? Youngs' Old Nick is lovely. Anyone know of other barley wines still being brewed?

    @Athletico Charlton love among the ruins is delicious. Days of creation is highly recommended if you can get your hands on it.

    @theeenorth the  specialist off licences will have a range of barley wines, lots of good breweries still make it

    Love among the ruins is very niche and not to many peoples taste I suspect but I thought it was decent.

    I got these from Gonzo, it is possible that they had a case of each, was super limited.

    I've seen a trade list that didn't include these IPAs. They have also imported 26 or 27 varieties of sour/wild beers, these included about ten varieties of Fated Famer.

    I don't follow Cloudwater on insta, give me nod when the post some up as I'd be interested to have a gander.

    Have to recommend as local to my birthplace.

    Worcestershire Way is a mighty fine session ale!

    @PopIcon - really sorry, been offline... They went up at 9am yesterday and sold out pretty quickly...  They had 4 Trillium (all IPAs / DIPAs) plus 3 Cloudwater (inc their latest TIPA) for £55...  I got a 'set'...  They have an online tasting next Weds, after which, if usual form is followed, they'll release some more (which is how I was able to get 16 cans of Other Half a few weeks back...)…


    Other Half London also posted a shot of an empty industrial unit earlier today, with the caption: 'we have a location....'

    I heard they sold out pretty quick. Seven beers that inc four Trillium beers for £55 is a better deal than others got. I saw a Scottish bottle shop selling the individual cans for between £11 and £15.50.

    Are the Trillium ones the same as what I picked up?
