With an obviously happy chappy tuning in from Cambridgeshire we now have an early leader in the Shire Stakes.

Maid Marian looked a bit pale tonight as I drank my fill of her (Nottinghamshire’s first beer of the night, and only?).

Cambridge is now sitting at 4 beers.

Lincolnshire, Gloucestershire and Derbyshire equal second on 2.

Can’t wait. And I’m putting in an appearance in Geneva just for ticks and whatnot. :D


As long as you aren’t a member of FIFA you should be safe.

I’ve found a new shire! An old saxon settlement called Bayerishire

Monchshof /natur Radler/.

Don’t laugh - it’s sauna time, and I’ve set the thermostat for 94C, so radler = perfect.


Sauna’s and Shandy’s: are you sure you’re British?

Ok guys just finished my first beer which was a Wychwood Firecatcher from Oxfordshire. Not bad, better than some supermarket beers. Great Cricket game.

Hi Martin,

Cricket sounded great on the radio: thanks for adding an Oxfordshire beer to the list: so many Shires and not enough time.

Hey! I’m from Nebraskashire! Do they ship that stuff to England or is it via trade?


’er indoors (Anna), source of the twin tinnies from Kansashire earlier, is also from Nebraskashire (the tinnies came from Beertopia, Omaha).

7 Seas. Not Siren’s best but still a great beer. And while this beer is attractive, I still want to see other beers.

Only got one shire beer left. A Siren Mums the Word.

Just drinking a Runaway American Brown Ale from Manchester though, but it is excellent stuff.
