Hello all you ale lovers out there or non ale lovers for that matter.My passion for finding great tasting ales began way back in the early 1990s after sampling a bottle of Newcastle Brown Ale by mistake really as my local pub had issues with the pumps and the best bitter was unavailable,the landlord persuaded me to try a Newky brown.Although not entirely convinced at the time it just gave me the push to maybe drink something different every now and then.I had stumbled across my love of great tasting beers.
