I used to quite enjoy the pils,porter,pale ale when they were available in bottled six pack form - the tap shite at their alehouses tastes watered down to me!
The Fireside Ale was a goody, the Harvest - Apricot Wheat less so....! Rumour has it they once had a 'shellfish' stout planned but along came Summit and that put paid to any further Speights seasonals......
Hallertau beers at The Malthouse:
Minimus - superb summer lunchtime drop. Three Boys at Bookbinder strength!
Statesman - superb drop anytime... nothing flashy, not overly hoppy or bitter, but beautifully balanced and drinkable.
No doubt I will be sinking a pint or two of minimus, and maximus on saturday ;o) Ordered a keg of copper tart to take back to my mates place which should go down nicely afterwards while I await my fate!! Getting nervous now, all of a sudden I wonder if I can trust my friends???

You're the groom at a stag party, so obviously the answer to that would be.... no. Unless you're the first of them to get married, in which case you have the revenge card as a defense against them.
