The bitter, brewed by Robinsons, proved to be a most excellent quaffable brew.

A nice touch was a CD being used as the basis of the beer pump clip.

Is this the first time a band have had a bitter specifically brewed for them?

To make things even better their website is powered by WordPress!

Plus a significant percentage of all profits raised by the sale of the beer will go to the Oxfam Famine Appeal.

Brilliant!

I attended Kingston Beer Festival on 15 May 2011.

Here’s the drinks I sampled, along with marks out of ten:

Unfortunately the festival had to close two hours early at 1900 due to the beer running out!

I think a bit more planning for next year may be required…

Is there nothing that isn’t cool about this place?

Where have I been all these years?

He’s brilliant.
