You familiar with this one ?
I first came across it last week at Corney and Barrow and am now completely hooked.
Might be a bit sweet for some tho - tastes a bit like honeycomb

Not a bad shout.
Have always been put off but the bottle shape - not standard burgundy shape
Have tried their shiraz and cab shiraz offerings in past which have been fair standard at best really.
I'm up for giving it a go tho

Just the once, Im generally not a fan of the ‘premium’ ales because of the higher alc content, they can be unbalanced and aggressive (Fullers Vintage being one I dislike) but I recall this was rather mellow. I read they were thinking of producing a Rum Barrel version too.

£1.37 a bottle? That must be on offer?

I like a dash of sweetness too, Badger Golden Champ and Brakspear Oxford Gold are regular buys. In the pub, Abbot & Timothy Taylor’s Landlord will do if you're offering.

Calm down old'un, you'll give yourself an embolism.

I was simply looking for something 'different'.

Feel free to lead the charge.

As my dear old dad told me: never run, it's ungentlemanly, never shout it's unseemly, and never, ever volunteer, it's downright bloody stupid.

My default mode is to tag along...baaaaaa! However, if the senate can't concur then Lurcio might venture forth.

Cogito sumere potum alterum.
