5th August 2011 - Tamworth


Friday night outing with RG meeting as always, it seems, at The Globe.  I opted first for the Holden's Mild.  Tonight we thought we'ed re-check the state of play at the Albert.  Things are getting back to how they used to be and signs of real ale returning.  I opted for Banks's Bitter

Over the road next to the Tweedale.  Bass is a beer that used to be common  but is getting harder to finds these days.  I remember the days when it used to be darker.

We decided to end the evening at the Sir Robert Peel.  Here I went first for York Citra and thence Wye Valley HPA.  recollections of the old days when it was Hamletts and brown ale was the order of the day prompted us to share a bottle of Newcastle Brown (what ever happened to the fridge full of Newquay bottles?)
