I happened into this wonderful emporium of beer yesterday on my way to visiting my old employers and stock up on chocolate. They happened to remember me from my previous visit when we had the tasting on the Black Country tour.
The owners have now built in their new tasting room and have opened up an invite for us Ratebeerians for a mass tasting session, they will provide appropriate food.
Would we be up for this and if so when could we get together, probably post Christmas I would imagine.
I’m certainly up for it, it would be a great session.

If you can set a date a good 6 or 8 weeks in advance I will look to book a train up from dahn sarf, presuming the prices are good.

Its a great little tasting room. I will be paying a quick visit either today or tomorrow.

I will be up for it as long as its after christmas/new year. My diary is full until then.

Towards the end of January could be good, either Saturday 24th or 31st maybe?. I’m hoping to to build up some cash for beer from Christmas, so it would be a perfect time to spend it.

I can do the 24th but not the 31st.

I can presently get a return from Euston for under £20 which is a price I’m happy with.

If this date suits others let me know and I’ll book up the train.

You can usually get advance tickets to & from Brum for six quid each way without too much advance notice. Provided you go by Chiltern of course. Takes a bit longer but I’m a cheapskate.

The 24th would be great for me. Let’s hope that quite a few others could join us.

I expect Bunting to be laid out at New St station to welcome my arrival, and perhaps a band?
