Please forgive me, Kent is beautiful, the garden of England.

But never Wales.

I believe I have been put forward for gear box install by Aidan, so I could well be letting you know what the beers like in Kent :lol:

Do I detect a taste off challenge!! and an off road weekend

I'm putting up Felinfoel's "Double Dragon" A winner everytime.

I can already see the English loosing on a tasting trip to Wales and claiming that their beer doesn't travel very well! Good old wingeing pomms!

Lets hope Russel can bring some Steinlager and show them how well beer can travel!! :run :run :run

We may even get some Irish pocchine!

Or French Calvados

Hoping to organise Strata for late April or May. :D :D
