Nobby's Brew



First of two promotional posts today.

Sorry for the recent silence. Currently on retreat in Northamptonshire, trying to kick my third novel into shape. Working very hard, but marginally distracted Friday night by a bottle of Portuguese Firewater. Falls somewhere on the scale between Absinthe and Ouzo. Frightening stuff. Thank you Rosa.

Otherwise, it has been a productive few days.

I'd like to shout out to our local Master Brewer, Nobby. He and his wife Kate run a microbrewery out of our local pub, The Ward Arms. He's extremely good at it. So good that you can now find his beer in selected Co-op stores around the county. They should eventually be rolling them out nation-wide. All of his beers are barrel condition - no re-fizzing or funny business.

"Guilsborough Guzzler 3.6%" at the SIBA midlands beer contest 2011.

You can check out his website for more information about his ales, news, and tips on making your own beer. You can also take a tour of his brewery, including a tasting session. Then there's Nobby's Facebook page.
