Couldn't find the time to get to a pump dispensing a decent ale today. Unlike Addie, who contents himself with fiddling around with spreadsheets and surrounds his actual work effort in opaque mystery, I have real work to do. Today, the consequence is a long return train journey between London and Yorkshire.
Addie ended up posting a blog about wine, because he made no effort to take his journalistic and investigative responsibilities seriously and drank tea all day. But in my quest to help you, dear reader, instead of wining (sic) like Addie, I acquired a couple of cans of lager from the Marks and Spencer's on Leeds station, and indulged myself on the train back.
Usually Marks and Sparks' own brand stuff is worth a go, and this is really no exception. It's Belgian and comes in at a slightly dangerous 5%. It tastes a lot like Stella Artois, but not too much wrong with that if you like strong commercial lagers. Pretty acceptable stuff, and excellently priced too. If you need to pick up a four pack for one of those emergency four-pack moments, you could do much worse.
Well done Marks. I expect Addie will be in tomorrow to sample the Frascati. Has he really understood the brief?
