Anything to do with beer reviews and beer festivals, as opposed to the places that sell the stuff.

- 5 August 2006: Great British Beer Festival 2006
- Another day, another year, another trip to the Great British Beer Festival - the UK’s biggest pub!
- 7 August 2005: Great British Beer Festival
- It’s taken me five years but I’ve finally done it - this year I finally made it to the Great British Beer Festival. Cue lots of talk of ale, pie, buses and of course, Rich Tea biscuits. (You’ll have to read it to find out…)
- 6 November 2004: Young’s Know Who Makes The Better Beer
- Since 2002 the September Cask Beer Week has been celebrated in London by giant pint pots running around and causing mayhem - all in the name of getting you to have a pint.
- 15 October 2004: Fuller’s Red Fox
- I especially miss Fuller’s pubs in the autumn when they do their beer festival.
- 17 May 2004: Beer On Broadway XV
- In case anyone is wondering why there has been no follow up to last years wonderfully succesful Eurovision 2003 post, then I should state that Saturday night was spent at Beer on Broadway - also known as the Ealing Beer Festival.
- 25 February 2004: New ‘Mild In London’ Section.
- About the ‘Mild In London’ section.
- 13 February 2004: Beers of the Week.
- A quick roundup of three of the recent beers I’ve partaken of.
- 3 January 2004: More Maxims.
- After all that searching for Double Maxim, what should I find in the Ealing branch of Safeway on New Years Eve? You guessed it…
- 28 December 2003: Double Maxim.
- I last supped Double Maxim not long after the Vaux brewery closed in 1999. Well until last night anyway. And it’s good to have it back!
- 22 October 2003: Broon Ale
- Want a nice brown ale in London? Marks and Spencer might well be the place to visit then.
- 27 September 2003: Fullers London Porter
- London Porter is making a rare appearance in cask form - get out there and try it! It’s fan-bloomin-tastic!
- 28 July 2003: Baltika and the state of beer in the UK
- Russian beer Baltika is coming to the UK. But out of the 10 possible versions of the stuff, it’s not the rather nice brown ale, the wheat beer or the divine porter. Nope. It’s the rather naff lager that will soon be hitting the bars of London. Yet another wasted oppertunity…
- 10 May 2003: Back to Boring Beer At The Grange, Ealing
- All the great beers have now gone from the Grange in Ealing. I’d go elsewhere if I was you.
- 20 April 2003: And a pint of Mild please (the Market Porter, Borough Market, London).
- A fine pub in a fine location, and by the looks of it, great for us mild fanatics as well!
- 18 April 2003: Beer Festival Joy (The Fox, Hanwell)
- It’s Good Friday, and there’s a beer festival at a pub that’s nowhere near where you live. What do you do? Well it’s obvious! Make up an excuse to be in the area!
