Next Spoons Fest

Sounds a slightly more interesting list than the last couple of festivals. Oh for Shep Neame/Stone Californian.........

The Lithuanian is Svyturys I believe.

Frankly, everything that ever happens at a Spoons ever again in my lifetime will be a crushing anti-climax compared to a bunch of drunken buffoons up and down the country texting each other saying "I’M DRINKIN IT! I’M DRINKIN IT!"

This kind of, sort of looks OK. Yes there are a load of boring sounding UK efforts, but the foreign ones might be alright.

However I can almost hear Gazza revving his engine over Cambridge Heather Ale - brewed with Fuggles...

The Svyturys will probably be terrible, even though I like the original version of Baltijos; but am looking forward to Feral, t’Ij, Avery, Brewsters and Ishii.

I’ll vouch for the Brewsters. Because I’ve literally had a hand in brewing it.

I hope you washed it first

Nothing wrong with Fuggles, some of my favourite Struise beers have had Fuggles hops in.

Yeah I might make more of an effort for this one than the last. So a day cycling round 13 Spoons again seems necessary.
