of 2008! Lady Buzz works as a nursery nurse and the school break up this Friday which means our kitchen will be out of bounds for brewing for two weeks or so. So, I best get a brew on before the Christmas close-down. This will be my last brew of 2008 and, probably my last winter ale of the...

Not been posting for a bit as I've been busy with a project in the garden and, having the wife and kids at home over half-term hasn't helped. Anyhow, they are all back now so I'm going to fire up the boiler tomorrow. :thumb: I'm drinking this brew at the moment and like it so much I want...
