    Oh Dove - what are you like? Drinking a Southwold brewed beer in Cornwall.  I would love to try Doom Bar - it's what Cormoran Strike drinks!

    Of those available that we like  @didyw, it was the lightest … it was only 11am!!! … just washing down a bacon bap 😉

    Sadly, there is nothing Cornish about Doom Bar beyond the name these days. Brewed in Burton on Trent by Molson Coors.
  • Hello all, been at the trade show since 9am in Lyon. Must have walked miles. Found some great new products though, trying to get away from anything imported from the UK, getting so complicated and so expensive since you know what. 🙄
    Glad to hear you're out @punkdoc, garden view always a boost. Hugs to you. 

    Oops, break over, got to find the Irish stand now, at least they're in Europe. 

    Good day all, good hols @Dovefromabove. Lovely view there too. 

    Catch up later.

    Only for the last two years and the barrels are still here.

    I stand corrected, it is the bottled stuff which is brewed elsewhere since 2013 and the cask ale is still made in Rock. In bottles I prefer the Atlantic IPA though :p Molson Coors bought Sharps in 2011.
