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).
My email is ralphgant@sky.com.

Roundhill Brewery Trip, Billingham

Recently I went on a trip to the closest brewery to my house, it's about three miles away, I was meeting up with the lads from the Fish in Hartlepool. The brewery was the Roundhill Brewery, only small but very good. It is on the Cowpen Lane Industrial Estate, so not far at all for me.

We had four beers and a talk on how it was made, all in all a very good trip.
