I thought to myself, I'll show that Proff. I'll get a couple of bottles of my locally (Berkshire) made Tutt's Clump cider. Show him how it should be made

I spoke to Tim Wale who owns the company who makes it and, if I can get to him, he'll donate a couple of bottles (and I'll add a bottle or two if I can). As the weekend mission is to make money for the charity, to this end, if it is agreeable, I'd like auction these off.

This is no ordinary cider. It may not be Devon/Cornish/Hereford cider but it is very good.

If this idea is not appropriate then it'll go either Proff's glass or into the general alcohol stock.

Tutt's Clump.

I had that once, but a course of penicillin soon sorted me out

Don't go to sleep with your head under your pillow, the Tooth Fairy will be along with a pair of pliers, see what happened to my Mom.

Royal County @ 7%
Traditional Farmhouse @ 6%
Special Reserve @ 6%

These retail at £2.69 each.

Progress report>>>

Delivered empty barrels to the Beer Engine yesterday afternoon...
Was welcomed by Ian who stated " I thought it was the bike event that the extra 2 barrels are for"
I was then invited into the brewery to see the start of OUR brew..
The smell was mmmmmmmmmm it takes 7 and a bit days to obtain perfection
I'll be picking the FULL barrels up next Thursday afternoon, just in case any early arrivers want to sample it
I get it "Bright" without finings, as it will all be gone, hopefully by Sun morning
Bright means it's ready to drink immediately it's tapped
I will also be picking the Cider up on the way from Beer Engine to Sids..
I may need an armed escort with that much good stuff on board ...

 

[(RIP) Kaister]

i rode out to the beer engine about a year after it was opened.









it was shut

 

[(RIP) Proff]

It was open today and I picked our two barrels of "Piston" up from Ian the brewer
