Thanks. You're deffo an ale man and with good taste...mostly. Matthew Brown...wot, Lion ales??! Shudder.going back to the 70's and early 80's Bods, Tetleys and Thwaites were always a good pint. Must admit liked Matthew Brown too. Couldn't stand Higsons and all the other big breweries stuff. Now, I'm a regular visitor to Cask and always have the various blondes they do in there. Otherwise like Wainwrights and Black Sheep. As said earlier tend to avoid the darker beers as they are too strong and I can't drink anywhere near as I could. Also , generally speaking they are just not to my taste. Find a lot of them a bit sweet.
I was at Leeds University in the late 70s and early 80s. Their Tetley's was miles superior to that which came to Blackpool.
Still, I like the dark, malty brews so Bass, Bombardier, Young's; always happy to see those.
