Mmm, tasty beer // at 21:00
Normal Thursday evening social events were thrown into disarray by Jo working late, we met up for a beer or several in the GB to make up for it and ponder out next move. Such a great pub, and always a variety of interesting beers on tap.
A blackboard above the bar advertised a “Black Wattle Superior Ale” and I couldn't resist trying it, even the bar staff didn't seem to know anything about it. Very tasty, I'll have to find out where it comes from and who makes it... and maybe where I can buy some more!
[2007-Aug-27] Revisited: Aha! Barons Brewing Company is the creator of this fine beverage.

The theme is beer // at 23:59
Finally got to have a social beer with cos, after we've been talking about it for many a month. Yet-Another-Franchise-Bar-Chain, a Belgian one this time, a decent place to be, and very enjoyable beers, but I'm not sure I like the increasing en-Franchisement of the pubs. As Ox said “what with all the Aussie bars in France, and theme bars here, pretty soon you'll have to go to Europe to get a Carlton.”
