Rail Ale was the weaker, Firkin was the middle, and Dogbolter was the strongest.

Each of the Firkin pubs changed the name of the weaker pint to reflect the pub I think.

And yes, I loved all three, but Dogbolter was the Dog'sBollox.


I do rather like Youngs Double Chocolate Stout.

And most Porters.

And I have only found one pub in London that does Mackeson.

A riverside pub called The Hope and Anchor in SE7.

Does anyone know of any other pub that does Mackeson?

fullers have just realeased "george gales & sons " Seafarers ale"


only 3.6% so i think its more of a session ale rather than a premium


if anyone sees or samples it , please feel free to let us know your thoughts


cheer to the beers , all hail to the ale!!

Just re-read this post and laughed out loud, my head like a nodding dog, very, very, funny.


Ale is for the refined palette,It takes time effort and research. A good ale "mentor" helps you appreciate it's subtleties.Go to any small town or country village and order a pint of their local ale & it won't be long before a regular strikes up a conversation with you, some how you slip through the net of suspicion easier.

I'm sure most are put of first time by quick a sip of warm muddy John Smith or a pint of cloudy Bass. I myself started out on "Badgers Tanglefoot" served crystal clear at the perfect temprature in a Sussex pub ( The Vine at Tarring) on a busy sunday lunch, free roast potatoes dusted with chili flakes served at the bar..............


ohh but they were the days....

    • Ask the surgeries.  Most dentists  I have been to were child friendly.  The only one was the school dentist who'd come in a caravan and do lots of unnecessary work, which I now suffer from. 
    • Round-robin letter received this week regarding this. Main points are that the number of new homes is being reduced from 877 to 867. OK, not much change there, but.... "A reduction in the number of affordable homes from 270 (35% by habitable room) to 77 (12% by habitable room)" That's a 72% reduction in the number of affordable homes. I don't know a lot about this kind of thing, but it seems that just 77 affordable homes in a development of 867 is a massive pee-take in an area where a 1-bed flat is £400K+ if it isn't "affordable." If you're interested, the application can be viewed at https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/ ref 24/AP/2074 and there's a lot of objections to the reduction in affordable homes. The drop-in sessions are Weds 26th Feb (Peckham Library) and Mon 3rd March (All Saints Church) at 3pm. Full details attached. 24_AP_2074-FILE_COPY_-_NEIGHBOUR_NOTIFICATION_LIST-4005193.pdf
    • I noticed 4 gone in a short stretch of Bellenden Road alone this weekend. I had no idea it was to do with the tech and thought that it was a retro Beastie Boys thing. Showing my age. Sorry I can only find a Facebook link if you are too young to remember this: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=578367166664170 Totally agree that it's a bad design flaw, and I bet the actual cost of the parts to VW is minimal so they could easily cough up some of the replacement costs. It's depressing that someone can go along a street popping these things off cars with very little worry about being prosecuted.
