The Bison Beer guys have done very well here...

Which reminds me, last night I was told about this new micro pub in Goring Road.... http://www.thegeorgifin.co.uk

It does look like a veritable Aladdin's cave in there. I didn't know it was there, and my Mum lives pretty close by. I'm going to make sure I visit them now, and try to avoid buying my wine from the supermarket.

So, to complete this tale, Hennings in Goring claimed to have never had Magic Rock High Wire Grapefruit but were happy to order me some in. I've yet to pick mine up, but I know they ordered 24 cans, of which I've taken 12, so I'm assuming the remaining 12 will be on the shelves if you're interested.

In there now and they've never had it.

Between me asking that question and your response, I've just cracked open a Damm Inedit which is quite orangey.

Oh- that looks good. How fruity is it?

I noticed some Goldstone Brewery beers in the window of my local offy earlier, which caught my eye for obvious reasons. Has anyone tried them? http://www.goldstonebrewery.co.uk

Papa Lazarou and I are on the train with a chap from Meantime. He has a couple of beers which they brew and M&S are bringing out in a month's time. He also mentioned that Brewdog make what Tesco sell as their Finest IPA.

I noticed a craft beer house in Worthing today that's opening soon. http://www.brooksteedalehouse.co.uk

Cider is my first choice but I'll drink most things.

Next up: Eden Brewery.

I'm at The Dip on Brighton with Biffer and they have some delightful craft beers from the Naked Beer Co in Lancing. I'm enjoying Freudian Slip.

Not sure if this will appeal to any of our craft beer aficionados or not... https://www.livingsocial.com/gb/cities/210-brighton/deals/1044289-craft-beer-tasting-with-food-platter-to-share?utm_campaign=digest_dailyuk&utm_content=210&utm_medium=email&utm_source=blast
