If you know me or of me, you will know I like beer. Over the last few years I have been collecting photos of every new beer I have.
I now have over 2,000 individual beers photographed and have realised that many beers that I assumed I have photos of, I haven't.

This blog will be therefore be an account of my quest for new beers to photo and how I enjoyed them (or not).

Boat Lane Beers, all six I have had

I had four of these on Friday night, although it was in August last year that I bought all six of them in Bretforton. So where is Bretforton you may ask, well it's where my younger brother Andrew is buried. It was a long time ago now that he died but it is only the third time we have been down to see his grave.

We parked near the Church of St Leonard, where his funeral was, then walked over to the grave and as usual cried. We then had a walk around the village and ended up at the Bretforton Community Shop where I bought the beers.

I had two of the beers a week later in Tenby, Wales but the others I only had last night, so let's get on with the review.
