I quite like their Triple Chocolate

Still not made it down on a Friday evening for beer club...awful as it looks, and the prices are shocking too at £2 per pint

It's next to the train station. Very convenient.

does it travel?

Bottles are available. Not sure how far south they get or if we let them over the border.

Boo! That's a Thursday, otherwise I'd be there, bikes, beer and Stainburn are three of my favourite things.

Never seen it down here, but then I doubt you've had a Wye Valley bitter up there either!

I think I win 😀

[blushes] I hope it's the Celebration Ale recipe 😉 It's fantastic. Can't claim it's one of mine though, I got it from Brewmate.net

Did a demo BIAB brew at my LHBS 2 weeks ago, took a couple of samples... very well received... will be doing more demos every 2 months...

I'm in Baildon (half a mile as the crow flies from Saltaire Brewery), trout, give me a shout if you need any help or advice: you can find me on http://www.jimsbeerkit.co.uk/forum/index.php & message me through there - same userID

I do my brewing in the Brew In A Bag style - a lot quicker than the traditional three vessel method.
helpful video here:

I just bottled the Amarillo Amber ale that I brewed 2 weeks ago at Morley Home Brew but I'm not hopeful - I think it's infected 🙁
I'll crack one open in a couple of weeks & see where it's at.

Meanwhile, I'm brewing again tomorrow, I have a recipe for Thornbridge Jaipur that I'm going to give a try

djglover - that hop combination sounds lovely, I do like Cascade in my beers. I'm very partial to American IPAs at the moment. and stouts, and porters.

Saltaire do Stateside IPA with Cascade hops as well as their standard lower abv Cascade.

The saltaire blonde that they do was what got me off the lager. One of the menu thing to thank my late cousin for.

I have been known to combine a friday night ride round shipley and baildon to end at the brewery for a few then wobble along the tow path back home to Rawdon I used them for my brothers stag weekend refreshments at Lumley Fee near Brigsteer.

It does look interesting. Do tell, are you Baildon-ish?

The Bull in Baildon, a full 5 minute walk from my house. Apparently going quick though! 🙂

They do let it out of Yorkshire- it was highly in demand at the Reading beer festival the other week!
I enjoyed... 😀

They usually have some pretty potent ciders on offer too at the beer club....
