 Mmmmmmmmmmmm, Pale Rider, Kelham Island's finest. It's hard to believe its brewed in the same tanks that used to churn out gallons of manky piss watter for Wards brewery.

If anyone gets chance to try any of rotherhams finest ales from Wentworth brewery then you need to.

WPA is a cracking pale ale, and the oatmeal stout is reet good, even if you, like me, are not a big stout drinka.

Can't beat a bit of real.

I can't beat Hopback brewery ales, though I'm gonna be controversial and say I prefer Crop Circle



to summer lightning. And as its my local pub and all, I know whats reet bo and whats shite.

Taylor's is good, but it's £1.54 which is a bit steep.  :wink:  

Banks' Bitter is nice, drank a lot of them when I was at uni.

Black sheep - brilliant session beer - get a keg!

Mordue brewery - brill and local to us up north!  I'm sure some "Workie Ticket" would appeal to some on here  :twisted:

My old man managed to sort out a barrel of Millis Bitter from the Millis Brewery for my sisters wedding recep last week (this is a proper brewery down in Kent and not my old mans home brew by the way - wasn't a half bad pint either....)

Got to say Absolution is the shizzle, was a bit worse for wear coming back from Almscliffe one evening last summer after popping in to the Hunters. Lucky my mate was driving  :wink:

Moonshine is the dogs -although I have have to say that Pale Rider is a continual favorite at Shed Club.
Whats that new beer from Abbeydale Brewery ? - even lighter and better than Moonshine
