There was another shelf behind me in that store with the more non-British/Continental European beers, as well as some from BrewDog and others. I bought a lot of the BrewDog ones!

But out of those beers, I would choose:
  • Batemans XXXB (4.8%; bottled)
  • Hawkshead Lakeland Gold (4.4%; bottled - bought some of this today actually!)
  • Hawkshead Red (4.2%; bottled)
  • Hop Back Summer Lightning (5%; bottled)
  • Jennings Cocker Hoop (4.6%; bottled)
  • Manns Original Brown Ale (2.8%; bottled)
  • Marston's Old Empire (5.7%; bottled)
  • Marston's Oyster Stout (4.5%; bottled)
  • Theakston's Lightfoot Bitter (4.2%; bottled)
  • Theakston's Old Peculier (5.6%; bottled)
  • Thwaites Wainwright (4.1%; bottled)
  • Worthington White Shield (5.6%; bottled)

Once in a blue moon, I go walking with giants! Four years ago I chased a 50ft spider out of my city and just this weekend helped a 9ft dog and 30ft girl find her 50ft uncle. :D At this rate if there's more giants coming to my city, then Liverpool should be twined with Lillput. :lol:

Good luck! :) I've yet to get my P plates. Dislike driving, so I still haven't got enough hours. :?

Random truth about me... I often slip randomly into spoonerisms (on purpose) and love reversing my word-order. Sometimes I even artstay eakingspay igpay atinlay for no discernable reason. :mrgreen: I just like fiddling with my language.

For a long time, I thought that there was an English verb "misle" (pronounced my-zil) which means "to mislead". This is because I always misread the word "misled" as "misle-d" instead of "mis[lead] -> mis[led]".

e.g. "The boy was easily misled."
"The boy was easily my-zild."

Oh my goodness, I love this so much. I want that to be a word now.

Reminds me of my dad, who used to think for the longest time that "the smorning" was a term for a time of day because he misheard "this morning".

I love this too! I love the sound of 'my-zild', and also the way you applied grammatical rules to work out both pronunication and grammar - that sort of thing fascinates me.
