Anybody Hub bound this weekend ?. My 'tasting' session will be Friday afternoon/evening.
Had planned to go with the other half but for the same reason that I left Sheffield at half-time last Thursday (serious family illness) I can't honestly see us making it now.
I'm sure those who do go will enjoy it though. You can have one or two for me.

Sorry to hear that Gary. Will do, although I do wish that the Doncaster event was similiar to the Rotherham one and the ales were hand pulled as opposed to the tap and barrel. Hope everything works out. There is the Weatherspoons festival to fall back on (no pun intended)

Yes, the Hub event may come too soon but hopely as you say there's the Wetherspoons festival until May 4.
If anyone made it to the Hub tonight, I would appreciate an update. (would normally have been there on the Friday evening).
Group of us went and we decided on a one to three tick marking system for the ales. The top marks went to Beerworks of Sheffield Dr Morton's Ancient Grease. 4.4%. Bobs of Osset- Cahrdonayle (excellent) The Dark beer award went to Brown Cows Indulgence 4.6% (particularly well liked by the group) closely followed by Dark Tribes Dr Griffins Mermaid 4.5%. My favourite (but I am a massive fan) Thornbridge's Jaipur 5.9%(spent most of my tokens on that one until it sold out) The other outstanding ale for the group was Yorkshire Dales (Askrigg) Muker Silver 4.1% a blonde lager style produced with Hallertau, Northern Brewer and Stryrian hops. Stunning stuff and would be a right winner if cooled (not too much) and in Summer. Very well attended event and was bumping when we left at 8.30pm.

Thanks mate. One or two to look out for in future. Pleased it was well attended and that you enjoyed it.
Did manage a couple of hours out last night and sampled the following;
Black Hole Supa Nova A flowery pale ale brewed with lager malts 4.8%.
Milestone Olde Home Wrecker Chestnut in both colour and flavour -described by the brewer as a winter warmer 4.9%.
Orkney Red MacGregor A particular favourite of mine. A ruby red ale which has hints of cherries, toffee, caramel and chocolate and has a biscuity malt palate 4.0%.
