DnAuK   10 #109 Posted October 19, 2016 I kid you not... https://beerdedbeard.com/shop/beard-care/leshers-beerd-oil-100-all-natural-hop-infused-beard-conditioning-oil/  Wow. It's unreal to thick that some guys go around with a beard that smells (and tastes?) better than many locally produced real ales! I'm definitely tempted to try some myself next time I get dragged on a Wetherspoons pub crawl. 'Only British hops' indeed...

jemson   10 #110 Posted October 19, 2016 From the photos I`ve seen , Bottom Welly should be nice enough and not too Artisan! Didn`t Ship get nominated for a design award by Sheff CAMRA!?!?!?  I`ll leave Welly til next week when it settles a bit but I `ll be at festival by 6. Pretty sure my beard isn`t hip or artisan.

taxman   12 #111 Posted October 19, 2016 Seven casks, four of which are Neepsend beers. Also four keg beers including Siren Proteus for opening day. It's not massively changed but it's been nicely spruced up and the bar looks totally different. Not tried the toilets yet!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
SteelCityAle   10 #112 Posted October 19, 2016 Didn't recognise it when I walked in - it's full of people!  Looks good though, much expanded range of spirits and with 12 keg taps should provide a flow of interesting beers...

And will avoid trying the Neepsend and Siren at the beer festival tonight so as not to duplicate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Stoatwobbler   10 #116 Posted October 22, 2016 Citra oil you say? Sounds delightful! Where can one obtain such a product? I'd be using your empty bags of hops as a face flannel if I'd have known!  Here you go!  https://beerdedbeard.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

boldforester   10 #119 Posted October 24, 2016 Well, my first visit was on Saturday and I found myself sharing the lounge with a lot of Morris dancers! That apart, the Neepsend beers are good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
