Proved a disaster - I thought it was a good idea to drink Guiness zero having never really consumed it. Decided I’d try a real one to see - with typically disastrous consequences

Brooklyn special effects is by far the best I’ve tried
Lucky Saint is decent on draft. Guinness Zero by far the closest to the real thing.

Blond larger is a nice crisp beer. It's made by Hepworths.
Blonde Lager 5.0% - Hepworth & Co Brewers
Blonde is an organic lager with a crisp, fresh flavour which makes it a perfect accompaniment to all food. The organically grown hops deliver a floral note to the brew, and the purity of flavour is protected by meticulous cold filtration. The result is an authentic craft beer, gluten free,…

Lucky Saint. I went into a pub that had it on draft the other day and it's by far the best NA experience I've had.
Beavertown Lazer Crush is also pretty good if you want an IPA - they also do "Satellite" which is 2.8%, so a good middle ground.
Heineken 0.0 is actually not too bad really and much cheaper than the above.

Rare day off today, I’ve been for a long run, the kids are away for the day and now planning a few drinks in the sun in Coventry.
It’s been a while; any recommendations for craft beer places? Or if not, decent real ale?
My old haunts are either closed down or closed today!

Pretty disappointed in the limited options to be honest, but on the plus side 3/4 we went to were good!
Route; Gonzo (always good choice but too much strong stuff for a chilled afternoon) - Sky Blue Tavern for novelty purposes (horrendous selection) - The Yard (it’s the old Drapers, great seats in the sun and decent craft choice) - Triumph Brewhouse (really impressed).

If you are a fan of wheat/white beers try Hitachino White Nest Ale. Unreal. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/697/2013/

Whereabouts is the brewhouse ?
Most beers £5.75 a pint , quite like to give it a try but when you can great real ale from the Flying Standard for £2.75 and its right by the bus stop to the CBS …..

They used to sell that in my local Asda back when I lived elsewhere, haven't seen it since then. Great beer.
