Is there an age that real ale becomes attractive? Is it a bit like birds? At some point in life a 60 year old is going to float your boat just not when you're in your 30's😂

Not sure about that?

I've always thought that 18 - 60 would be fair game, as one of my mates used to say, owts alrite for practising on

Or, you have to shag 5 ugly ones for each nice one

Nothing to do with beer but in the main I can't see why young men would be attracted to much older women. Being an older person I know find myself attracted to fit older women, looking at younger girls doesn't seem right anymore and a bit pervy.

Guess I'm a perve then, can't help but look at a fit woman half my age or there abouts but I'm in my sixties.

Butty Bach is generally the one in pubs around Herefordshire.

Most prefer the apples around or way if ever you're in the vicinity the Herefordshire cider trail has some cracking ciders to try most can be found online.


HEREFORDSHIRE CIDERS

Newton Court gets my nod.

Tell you what, those boxes are a bargain

Would have to try some first though

I love my beer, don't drink as much now though as I don't make it and the prices are silly in the shops. I used to co run a homebrewing forum and a few of the members on there of old now own Micro Breweries. I use to go to most of the local beer festivals, the biggest one near me being the Stockport Beer Fest and the Manchester Winter Ales festival

I like strong beers of most types and very hoppy beers, though some are not the same as they used to be, Brew Dog IPA being 1 (recipe changed)

A few faves

At the mo, Guiness Foreign Extra Stout 7.5%, found it in B&M not to pricey at £3 for a 660ml, also at Asda in 330ml on multibuy.
Thornbridge Jaipur IPA 5.9% 4 pack cans in Tesco usually 2 for £10, mix and match.
One of the best beers I've ever had on draught Brew Dog Hardcore IPA 9.2% and also Sierra Nevada Pale Ale (not as good in the bottle).
I love a good smokey Porter when I can get one, Meantime being one that used to be good.

I put a few days aside for Brugge on my way to picking my Baitboat up from Carp Lounge in Germany, there were some very good (to me) beers tasted on that trip, I took pics as I knew the memory would be no good. Also had a expensive Lambic that almost made the Mrs chuck ...what was that bloody thing...hmmm

I drink the Jaipur in a couple of pubs near me, stunning pint on draught and not too bad in the can but not as nice as the tapped

I've tried the SN too, nice drink

The interesting about the Brew Dog IPA, how long since was the receipt changed then mate?, I like a pint of two of that as well, nice from the can, as the Goose IPA

Will deffo have a look out for the BD hardcore, thanks for that

Going back a good few years when I was a mature student, I used to work a few nights in a well respected real ale pub and for some reason whenever they got Deuchers IPA in as a guest ale it sold out within days.....god knows why they didn't order more barrels cos some would come in and leave without buying a drink when they found out the Deuchers had all gone.... Strange thing is I never ever tried the stuff
