Prelude – Beers Of The Beano – Friday 14 March 2025
Post #CurryThursday in the Malcolm Uphill, Caerphilly, where I had another three of the Festival Ales. Back in The John Wallace Linton, Newport. It’s getting more difficult to get unique Festival Ales. May have to pop up to The Pen and Wig.
Prelude – Beers Of The Beano – Tuesday 11 March 2025
The weather takes a change for the colder but The Wetherspoon Spring Beer Festival continues. Four uniques in The John Wallace Linton and then onto The Pen and Wig. Hoping not to slip again.

Saturday Morning in The John Wallace Linton
Storm Antoni raging outside and a Pint of Big Chief from Redemption going down a treat inside.
The Same But Slightly Different
It’s another Emergency Beano but what with the Rugby, slight tweaks to the schedule and a Spoons’ Full English to boot. Mainly because I feel like one and hang the recent price increase. That is the true spirit of an Emergency Beano.

The big news at the John Wallace Linton. They have gone all Pen and Wig. You just show your CAMRA card and you get the Real Ale beer discount. This is wonderful,really wonderful.

50% extra butter and the beans could have been hotter but overall tidy. I usually get 100% extra butter when I ask for extra. However, I’m didn’t pay any extra.
Rather superior Glamorgan Brewery glass with Boss Boom in it. Mostly conflicted, however as it’s The Pen & Wig it’s always a positive.

Back to Micros, in the Awesome Little Taphouse and it’s Magic Dragon from Wrexham. Not sure if it’s made from real Sheep. Could be an Untappd near miss?

And on to Tiny Rebel, where it was all Rugby. However downstairs in The Cwtch it was all Norwegian Yeast and Table Tennis.


And really fast WiFi too. Back next week for their Birthday.
