It's back.

If you missed out last time, or just need some more in your life, then we have fresh stock of Westvleteren 12, which is often cited as being the best beer in the world.

- On Untappd, this beer rates 4.47 out of 5, from 192,000 reviews.

- Beer Advocat website rates it a solid 100/100 and says "Westvleteren 12 is a masterpiece in its complexity but wonderful in its simplicity. The exquisite smooth taste of caramel and chocolate goes perfectly well with the sweet raisin and nutty notes in the aroma."

In case you didn't realise, today is Friday 13th.

Steeped I'm superstition, Friday 13th has been synominous with bad luck for almost 200 years.

But fear not, I have a guaranteed cure - visit my shop in today, peruse the shelves for some tasty Father's Day presents and I'll let you in on the secret.

No purchase necessary (although one would be very much appreciated) ☺️

A Kind of Magic, or a happy coincidence?

This year, Father's Day and Beer Day Britain fall on the same day - June 15th.

So if that isn't a big hint as to what to treat you dad to this year, then I don't know what is.

Shop is open in 10am to 5pm Tuesday to Sunday for all your Father's Day Beer Day needs.

Lunch by

The advantage of having my shop in is that there's delicious food just yards away. Ironically, that can also be a disadvantage when you're trying to be good.

The crispy pork belly was so tender, the spices were very well balanced and the salad added some beautifully contrasting textures and a wonderfully fresh accompaniment alongside the rich pork.

Winner, winner pork belly dinner. Cheers Fee. 👍

What an amazing meal last night.

We were fortunate to be gifted (by my wonderful parents) a meal last night, and what an amazing experience it was too.

Chose the Chef's Menu, together with the optional course, and we're blown away with each new course that was brought out. So many different aroma, flavour and texture combinations in a beautifully relaxed atmosphere.

Thank you and for a memorable experience.

There's a certain irony.....

The most recent addition to our shelves is possibly the most ancient alcoholic drink - mead.

In Viking culture mead was considered a drink of the God's, and as such it seems appropriate that this mead is from York, made by .

Made from fermented honey, we have 3 flavours of mead - traditional honey, elderflower and sour cherry. All coming in at 15% abv.

We also have some sparkling mead in cans - the 3 flavours above and also blueberry & blackcurrant. These are a great alternative to cider, and are all 5% abv.

As always, tasters are available for the meads, so pop down to this weekend d to give them a try.

Open Friday - Sunday, 10am to 5pm.

One question I get asked a lot is...

"Can I buy a beer from you and open/drink it here?"

And the answer is "yes, absolutely". You don't have to just take them home for later, although you can do that too.

So if you want:

- the best selection of independently produced craft beers in the area
- to beat any queues at the pub/bars
- to support a small, local trader
- to try something you may not have seen before

Then pop into see me in . I have a constantly evolving/revolving stock, so there should be something new each time you come in.

This is becoming a bit of a tradition...

My favourite weekend of the year paired with my favourite pasty from Gear Farm.

Empty glass? No problem, we have plenty of choice for you to refill your glass. So beat the queues at the bar by popping in to .

Do you Want to Break Free of alcohol?

Apparently, next week the sun is coming back out again, so when the MERCURY is rising, MAY I TAYLOR some beers to your thirst-quenching needs?

What's in DEACON (work with me on that one)? Some beautiful alcohol free beer from based in Brighton.

All the enjoyment of drinking beer, without feeling Under Pressure to get drunk and proclaim to everybody that You're My Best Friend.

And yes, before you ask, I am proud of myself for the above 😁
