Got an older bottle of beer. Eldridge Pope - Thomas Hardy's Ale Vintage 1994. It's bottle conditioned and says that it improves for at least 25 years, which is, around about now, although I have no desire to open it, as it was a collectors item back in 1994, and even more so now.

Jamhammer Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 My daughters boyfriend persuaded me to try a few crafty beers out in Canada and me and Mrs JH have got quite into it since coming home. Like a lighter beer and blonde but had a really nice flat white porter from M & S last night. Selling em for £1 at Ocean Terminal. Never too late to learn I suppose.

Remember I had a sample of a smoked lager called Rowers Irish Lager in the Temple Bar, yuck yuck yuck, but the Rowers Red Ale was ok, so I had a pint or two of that.

They say, however, that the best red ale in the country is made by Franciscan Well down in Cork. Helvick Gold is lovely, but watch the sediment or you'll be out with a dose of the extremist leftists.
