Swiss Chin Music – Tiny Rebel – 4.8% ABV.
Tiny Rebel’s Newport Bar where the WiFi is super fast band the the Beers are cutting edge. If only they would bring back the fridge!
High Summer Rain
Of course, High Summer, Wimbledon Fortnight and it’s raining. Actually, it’s the second day of rain. An Emergency (Tuesday) Beano in the City of my birth, Newport. Bus on time and starting in The John Wallace Linton, as usual.
Welsh Spoon s and two Welsh Guest Ales. Had better to be honest. May have been on more than three days?
To be honest, the Pump Clip is much better than the actual Ale. However, it was cheap and the WiFi was fast. Re upped with DTNS on Twitch with Amazon Prime. Support your quality Podcast.
Moving on and trying to find an ATM that does fivers (for the lunch time chippy visit) and failing. Came away with a tenner and the back entrance to the Pen and Wig.
More Welsh Ales. This time from Tomos and Lilford in The Vale of Glamorgan. Peachy and very Summery.
Nursing the Pint then on to The Harbour Fish bar which was of course shut but opened two minutes later.
I made a little video, which did very well on YouTube. No doubt due to The Castle Class HST in the background
Plenty of Salt and Vinegar, of course and then onto Tiny Rebel’s Newport Bar. Which is excellent on a Tuesday. My Untappd unique stats were heartily improved.
Discussed Tiny Rebel Fest and drank their Fine Ales.
Slow sipping is av thing and then it was time to go home via the Market Bus Station.
Glitch – Electric Bear – 4.6% ABV.
Tiny Rebel Newport, Monday, the 19th of June 2023. There seems to be an Electric Bear Tap takeover. This is Glitch and it’s on cask, it’s rather nice, rather complex, bitter fruity, peppery and hoppy. Half tidy.

Tiny Birthday Blogging
February is the month when you start to notice lighter mornings and evenings. Myself, I could do with double lighter mornings and forget the evenings. It’s all about the early morning starts to Beanos and driving in the dark on unlit roads is not my bag. However, February is also the month of Tiny Rebel’s birthday and this year they are eleven. So, maybe not on the exact day but it’s off to their Newport Bar to try out their Birthday Brews.
The Birthday Ales from the Left and the Right. All Keg.
And from the other end of the bar.
They say Blue, I say Green and not exactly sour
And time for a quick pit stop.
So, is there a rule that birthday beers need extra long names? The second beer was Cookie Dough Biscuit Mix Millionaire Shortbread. It really tasted of cookie dough and I really liked it.
And on to my last Birthday Ale as I was getting sleepy and I met someone from the Internet IRL. Fruit based beer for the old man with the loyalty app please?
So I left with still five Birthday beers left to try.
