Popped out for a couple in rainy Newark last night. Surprise and bargain of the night was the Meantime Coffee Porter in ‘Spoons – Beerfest on until the 16th Nov. For a start, it was the first beer I asked for and as I waited for the almost obligatory “Sorry it’s just gone” I saw a dark liquid flowing – it was actually on. And very coffee-tasting it was too. And in good nick. And at £1.49 for a very tasty 5% beer you can’t go wrong.
Also went in The Castle but I can’t remember what I had in there – very nice though, whatever it was.
Started and finished the night at Cumbo’s with a pint or two of B & T Extra Stout. Mmmmmmm.
