No, I'd not heard of them. Sounds like it's worthy of a jaunt over the M6Epic! Not that far from my stomping ground. Have you tried anything from Lymestone Brewery in Stone? Their Stone The Crows is my favourite beer. Titanic's Plum Porter is fantastic too.
Hope it doesn't spoil my chances later.......You'll just have to drink it quicker!
The nearest micro-brewery to me does 4 pints for £2 (maybe £2.50, I can't remember now) a pint if you buy them and take away - you just need a 4 pint carrier of your own. Cracking ale too. They also do a brewery tour for about £10 which ends with a pulled pork butty and as much as you can drink in the final hour of the tour - serve yourself from taps in a private space in the pub. http://www.joulesbrewery.co.uk/index.php
Sounds like you need to arrange something with the owners.
Pins and pints!
A charity event to promote local beer and local pins, everyone is a winner!
Just having the one bottle of beer tonight. Happy New Year!

Much prefer the bottles of Medusa they have though!
Best deal I've seen for Trouper is from Asda, 4 bottles for a £5.00.Yeah it seems to vary week to week. Sometimes they have some great stuff in like Iron Maiden Trooper, but some weeks its just muck.
