I finally got to try Elland 1872 porter, champion beer of Britain, yesterday at the wonderful new brew pub, the Flying Duck, in Ilkley. Magnificent brew.

Doom Bar in the Bay Horse (Bentley) ... Nice but was never going to take away the pain of the worst hiding in 30-odd years!

Don't suffer in the mornings fortunately

I think that's as a result of spending more and more time locally ... Switched to the Bay Horse after the demise of the Drum and whilst they have a real ale they tend to stick to the same one (Doom Bar) where the Drum were at least rotating theirs.

I'll still contribute when I come across something or somewhere worth reporting.

For all you discerning real ale fans I would ask you to try and give some of your patronage to Doncaster Brewery and their new premises on Young Street in the Town Centre . It’s not yet the finished article but the beer is very good. The couple who are running it have put their heart and soul into their business and it deserves to be a success. Opening times are Friday 3 -9pm and Saturday 12 noon – 9pm. Sampled most and boy does he keep a good pint. Especially the Town Fields brew at 7%, its gorgeous.
