I am very tempted to order one of their new mini casks to try and get my version closer to the real thing.
 
I thought you might be interested in this short video just out today with 5 points Brewery talking about their Best Bitter on which my recipe was based.


I've brewed this twice now and it's just delicious! A firm favourite.

Haven't been for a while to a pub but when I do Costello's in Stockton Heath or Appleton Thorn Village Hall.
Sorry, misread the 'Landlord' tag as actually being a landlord - I'm new!
I think Costello's has closed down (my barber worked behind the bar there), sadly.
