Leeds Beer Week sounds like something I'd enjoy. :thumbup: Did you enjoy yourself? Looks like your TC 14 had a good time.
For me today it's a treat from one of my favorite East Coast breweries that I can't get on the West Coast:

Got out for a walk and a bit of a poke around some antique shops in the Yarra Valley, where I've found some nice old axe heads for refurbishment before.
Nothing much today, but did get to enjoy this glass of Coldstream Grand Porter at a local brewery on the way back.
And this plate of mussels fresh from Portarlington over the other side of Port Phillip Bay is a dish I wish you could get on every pub menu!

How is that one, StoneBeard? I like a good pumpkin ale (never seem to need more than a 6-pack a year, though). My favorite is Schlafly from St. Louis, although I can't get it out where I'm at now (they make some great stuff in general, but have a pretty small distribution; if you're ever in St. Louis, I'd definitely recommend their Tap Room). I've seen that Pumpkick in stores before, and I like a lot of the stuff New Belgium puts out, but I guess I've never read the description of that one. The cranberry sounds interesting.
Mmmhh! Mussels are to be relished and always nice with a Cold One or chilled wine:thumbup::thumbup:
Oh, yes, that knife's alright too mate
Thanks, Will
