I’m actually tempted to venture out of the People’s Republic for this... Is it cheating to only bring bottles I brewed myself?

I may also be tempted, not normally a fan of tastings if truth be told, its all a little. fast paced and hectic for me but I love meeting up with folk so may come along even if only for a short time as I would like to hit a few city centre pubs.

You can sit with me Fin: I can’t keep up with some of our ’megaspeed-raters’ either. My pace is a little more sedate, but I still manage a good few. Hare and the Tortoise, etc, etc.

So long as I haven’t rated them it is OK I believe?

I believe that I will be sitting at this table too. The kegged beer in the tasting room will probably be sufficient for me plus a couple of cheeky beer buys in the shop.
We ought to put together a crawl in town. Sounds like The Craven Arms tops the list.

If you like I can start saving interesting bottles that come in to Cotteridge over the next few week (big bottles) I’ll add them to the spreadsheet with the price. Then we can split the bill on the day.

What does everyone reckon?

Please do join me: the young guns can have their shoot-out and we can watch in awe, as we imperturbably finish off our beers at our leisure.

Good work Rich. Yeah sounds like a plan...if there’s any foufoune floating around I’d love to try it!

I believe there’s a caveat to that, which states that this can only happen up to but excluding the point at which you have as many Steel City as Craig...
