[Giles]

This for instance:

[Beatle]

i know a lot of guys love ale beer…gonna give it another try....

[hectic]

I am almost fully converted from lager. Really good ale is the Iron Heart of booze.

[Tripleterror]

Beatle
You'll give up drinking that lager stuff when you try Hole Hearted, or any other of the Oakleaf beers come to that!
I speak from experience. 
Simon

[hectic]

G, do Oakleaf do some bottle conditioned stuff also?

[Giles]

Yep.  All the bottled beers are bottle conditioned.  Hole Hearted in bottles won the SIBA Best bottled beer of Britain last year…G

[hectic]

Just had a look at their site, I now immediately want a drink.

[Beatle]

we´ll see if I´m a new born believer in ale after July 11

[Giles]

You will be, especially with the Hole Hearted.  It really is a brilliant beer…G

[Beatle]

looking forward to it****5 bottles and I will be convinced

[Simon]

The Oakleaf brews are some of the best beers England has, and as we make the best beer in the world that makes them pretty much the best beers in the world!

My favorite is the Blakes Ale; its a very dark beer, apparently (according to the brewery tap) brewed to a Victorian recipe found in the Gosport archives from a local brewery by the name of Blakes that was closed many years ago. This stuff is full old world strength - 5 bottles and your going home in a wheel barrow!

Gosport has a tradition of brewing great beer; All the Navy's beer for nearly 200 years was brewed in a building on the other side of the square from Giles's house and within sight of the current Oakleaf brewery. The ration was 8 pints a day +1/2 pint or rum, Nelson won the battle of trafalgar on this stuff!

Here endeth the history lesson.
