No, not that sort of dry January.
I did manage to get out to Jones Wood and Marlowe last Thursday for some casks; it looks like this may become a regular excursion.
I also got out to Singlecut last weekend; just a quick pour of their new London Sessions Bitter, a nice pint but not on cask sadly.
Hmmm, I must pester them.
It is the words that have dried out this week.
The Cask Zombie has eaten my brain and taken over the blog this week.
Going into hiding …
… bwains! Bwains!
