Yes, David Aynesworth the owner of the Craven Arms in Appletreewick. Should be a good watch for us Real Ale fans.

On this side of the hill, we've got a programme about Accrington Stanley.
Never mind! I'll be sampling a few on Saturday night. It's my son's birthday and he's a real ale fan.

It's the first of a 4-part series. Any chance you might watch and be converted?

I trust that the glass being held by the "Cheers" smiley you used is a Belgian beer glass and not red wine.

Can't find the one with the pint glass (lined of course to ensure a full pint).

Managed a couple of pints of Abbot Ale in the Gatehouse last night plus a pint of Draymans Special from Naylors Brewery (Crosshills, nr Keighley). Very nice.

I could almost taste the Hetton Pale Ale from the description. Made me drool.
