Re: The Aeronaut Pub in Acton Burnt in NY Fire
I shall pass that feedback on. Six is more than we see in Devizes! The IPA is a cracking session beer, when it's on form. 6X is a shadow of its former self. Horizon is probably the most 'modern' (and un-Waddies), Bishop's Tipple was inherited - I think from Gibb's Mew. Swordfish divides opinion. What was the other?222gers wrote: ↑Fri Feb 17, 2017 11:07 pmFinally been to the Kings Arms. 6 Wadsworth ales on tap which I guess is the whole range.

Oh, and a lovely Golden Ale as well. Wadworth's were at a Meet The Brewer session at the Raven in Hammersmith last week.222gers wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2017 5:36 pmDirty Rucker....brewed for the 6 nations.Don wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2017 4:42 pmI shall pass that feedback on.

Finally made it to the Sloany Pony. Amazingly, a choice of 6 Real Ales at £3.80 a pint. I had a fiver ready expecting to be told "and the rest, mate"
Times change. Still nice enough in there.

Mrs May said yesterday " there's only going to be one of two people sitting around the negotiating table with the heads of 27 countries, standing up for the UK. It's up to you - me or Jeremy Corbyn."
Oh dear, it emerges that if she wins she will only be nogotiating with the EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier and that's it.
