Edit - it must be my birthday. I'm in the Glasshouse and they've got - https://www.gwbrewery.co.uk/moose-river-5-0 and - http://pintpicker.co.uk/beerDetails.php?beer_id=11185 on tap.
OK, not quite Beer or chips. Townhouse 'All You Can Eat' breakfast @ £4.99 and £1.80 for tea/coffee - terrific value. Fat Cat and Canary, Oakham Green Devil - £5.50 and in the Fat Cat - £3.80!!!
So, the Eaton Cottage has not been included in this year's CAMRA 'Good Pub Guide' and it's landlord quite rightly has got a tad upset. I loved this quote - if nothing else, it will reduce the number of sandals in the pub. Surely it should have been pairs of sandals!!! <laaugh> To be honest, I can't see why he's so bothered. For "good" beer is not confined to a cask. The drinking world has evolved, with countless amazing keg beers being produced and served in our pubs. The admirable Camra battle with the big brewers and pubcos has - at least on one level - been won. So-called craft brewers have injected life into the at-times stodgy world of lower carbonation and puerile beer names (Big Willie, Beardtongue Ruby, Old Growler, Piddle in the Hole). Colourful cans, big flavours, weird ingredients, quirky pubs - and a greater choice of beers than ever before (some with puerile names, though). I actually really enjoy quite a few craft beers and some of the flavours that brewers conjure up!! It is exciting.
For those of you who live in Norfolk and enjoy an IPA - try this if you can find it - http://www.grainbrewery.co.uk/beers/lignum-vitae/ Currently on in the Fat Cat and possibly in the Plough!!!

Well said Castle Rock brewery - considering (Wetherspoons apart) a pint is now circa 4.00 in pubs yet you can buy 2 litres of 5% cider for 2.05 in Morrison's. And don't get me started on Frosty bloody Jack's. Evil filth. https://www.morningadvertiser.co.uk...emonising-ale-pubs-with-link-to-alcohol-abuse
