Hazy pale, ipa and ne pale. Wasn't expecting them to be great at £1.20 a piece but the first one is pretty nice. Normally think stuff must be shite to end up in there. Might have to go back for some more tomorrow

December 21, 2025Dec 21 £7 pint of some bollocks at Heaton Park. It could've been £45 I'd have paid it after walking round some lights in a field.
December 21, 2025Dec 21 Had a long journey back from daughter's in Sheffield due to the usual train fails, had to stop for refuelling at the Sheffield Tap (Thornbridge Panela Coffee Porter) and Oxford Rd Tap (Ossett Blonde). Needs must 😉 Edited December 21, 2025Dec 21 by ianofcleveleys

Absolute madness £60+ entry fee for a family of 4 plus food for everyone and 3 pints for me. A burger alone was £13.50. Daylight robbery. Could've flown to Benidorm for the weekend for the same money
