That Punk IPA Glass
Overnight rain into a Premier Inn All You Can Eat Full English. Nursing a Sunday morning Pint in The Posset Cup. Then there was that Glass that was more hype than reality.
The Siren’s Calling and the rain started. It filled up with people sheltering not lovers of Fine Ales. 6th Birthday and survived the Rhona and a £7.30 Pint.
In The Corner With 4G
Welcome to British Summer, dry if a little chilly. Premier Inn Full English then The Lord High Constable of England. Taking my time over my Pints.
Then the Hop Kettle, excellent in every way except no customer WiFi. Great staff, a loyalty card and a large mixture of Cask and Keg Fine Ales. I sat in the corner, again, mostly for the LTE. Going back, no doubt.
Gloucester At Home
Fuelled up on a Premier Inn all you can eat Full English, I made my way to The Regal. Blogging and Beer drinking. It filled up with Gloucester Rugby Fans.
I wanted to go to The Turks Hurd but that was wall to wall with Gloucester Rugby Fans.
Luckily, I got to The Pelican before it too filled up with Gloucester Rugby Fans. I was stuck in the corner unable to get to the bar. However, it all ended with a wonderful Irish Apricot Sour.
Diet Cupcakes
When it’s lighter than you think. When the heavy rain isn’t forecast. When your Good Friday opening hours don’t reflect what your website says. Spoons for Bacon Butties and Diet Cupcakes. Yes, it’s #mb05 and I’m back in Gloucester.
Warehouse 4 of the Gloucester Brewery, a wrist strap and for plastic glasses, a rather nice one. Young ladies playing a Les Paul and should I spend £13 on a Burger. These are the big Good Friday questions. Missed the last video. It was Deya and it was B++
Five and Dry
Of course the journey to Chippenham was damp. However, it was mostly light, which is a major positive. Costa then Spoons, The Bridge House. Five Fest Ales all reviewed and all halves. Sitting upstairs, overlooking the river. A very pleasant morning.
A boneless Chicken basket for lunch and then over to the Prince Of Wales. Dogs, Fine Ales and news of a new Craft Pub in July. Chippenham is becoming my new Portishead. Quality Beanoing.
The New Merch
A cold and frosty start to the day. Costa and then The Kings Fee. Big Queues and a fallback to Doombar. The Beer House and lots of new Merch and Cloudwater 9th Birthday Ales. I certainly need more days in Hereford in 2024.
