I have added the Harviestoun as a new beer now, that looks the right thing to do.

The Greene King IPA Special Reserve, been a while since I had the bottle, but on my records at home I had it down for filtered but not pasteurised, but as I cannot remember it specifically it would be good to know if the bottle is pasteurised, in which case a new version would be raised and the ratings split, until then I think we keep it as one entry.

Cheers, I’ll try to remember to have a look at the GK bottle next time I’m in a supermarket. I’ll make sure no-one sees me looking at a GK product though, don’t want to make them think I’m interested!

Had a look at the bottle in Sainsbury’s. The Special Reserve didn’t say whether it is or isn’t pasteurised, but then neither did the standard GK IPA bottle next to it.



So - no closer to a definite answer, but I think it’s probably going to be the same as it is for the standard IPA - and therefore almost certainly pasteurised.

There is even a pre-festival tasting event at the Folkestone Spoons for the local Camra branch where and I quote "On Tuesday 23rd October the manager of Wetherspoons Folkestone, has invited branch members to a preview of their beer festival and is providing some snacks."

Nice

I like your use of local phraseology but the correct spelling is innit

For your next lesson in east london - work out what I am requesting from the following phonetic phrase:

Cort a panda

It’s also a contraction commonly used by modern day Native Americans and, in their usage, the spelling is generally ’enit’. Good to know this versatile word is used (albeit with a different spelling) over here as well.
