Go to Aldi, seriously, and buy one each of the bitters in bottles that they sell.

Landlord, Badger, etc,.

I recommend Aldi because they were 99p a bottle, so you could get a few.

Another vote for Aldi, if they have any left, The Badger Brewery, Hopping Hare goes down very well. 😉

Nope PP is a Hogs Back fan .
Suggest a visit to Tongham , or most supermarkets sell HBB bottles .
Its not as nice as it once was now its filtered and pastuerised / artificially gasssed .
Or buy a decent home brew kit from brupaks or a load of bits and bobs from the home brew shoppe in North Camp perhaps?

BUT PAINT "BADGER" OVER THE "Tesco Value" BIT.

OK PHILLY?

If he likes the Hogs Back stuff, see if you can find a BSA.

I buy one whenever I see it, for sentimental reasons relating to the Burma Star. It's lovely, too!

thanks everyone! think i know what i'm after now... used to love the Hogs back 'TEA' when i was younger, went on a tour there with some friends many years ago.

figured there had to be a bitter that isnt john smiths or hoffmeister but my mind was drawing a complete blank 😳

Currently Morrisons have Ruddles County for £1 per bottle - a true bargain which will impress.

I've heard good things about Badgers Flange and Wytches Bunghole. ****fazzocks Golden Gusset is a particular fave.

Maybe it's lager that MrP brews? Apologies for any wrong information!

All this talk about beer ... and tonight I have just opened a bottle of Bath Ales 'Wild Hare'. Yep, that's the correct spelling (for those who have the misfortune to know me) 😉

Cheers. 8)

Look out for any 5%+ IPA usually nice and hoppy, otherwise Rev James, Timothy Taylor Landlord, some people prefer blonde ales others darker ones, or if your like me I like a variety. Good job my local has from 5 to 9 real ales on sometimes 11. Happy supping 😀

PP likes real ale... I know cos I have been advised by the lovely Mrs PP following work on my bike also! I think I bought him a selection from Waitrose, but I heard he also likes the M & S range 🙂
