...All the very best to you too for 2015, Wee Beefy.<br /><br />I have to agree with your last point about the importance of where beer is drunk. As I become older, the location, and occasion and, of course, the company I am with take on an often far greater significance than the beer itself. We ignore the continuing tide of pub closures at out peril. As Hilaire Belloc famously wrote, “When you have lost your inns drown your empty selves, for you will have lost the last of England.”<br />Paul Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678639237696546268noreply@blogger.com
