I love this clip from 1973. Just as keg beer was becoming popular in the UK, Fyfe Robertson finds his 'Perfect Pint' - and it's a real ale.
And more people are brewing it at home.
Our final stop is the newly reopened and (poorly?) renamed Side Quest. The #realale on offer was not tempting, I ended up choosing keg
Just up the road is The Bees In The Wall which, pleasingly, had bees going into its wall. But better, it has a great selection of (mainly stringed) musical instruments. I played the mandolin and then jammed with the landlord on a guitar and harmonica blues-fest. #livemusic Oh and good #realale
We're now at the Tickell Arms, a rather blue gastro pub. It has separate entrances for the restaurant and the pub, but in reality they are just at either end of the bar. Four #realale available
Now we're at one of only a handful of pubs to have been in every edition of the Good Beer Guide, the Queen's Head at Newton #realale
Theakston doing non-alcoholic ale now, Nowt Peculier, so giving it a try. Quite nice I can get several decent ales in non or very low alc versions now, used to be just lager or ciders.
Is there anything that says "I'm going on holiday" more than sitting in an airport Wetherspoons at 11am with your last pint of #realale?

I saw this at the beer festival. I'm guessing that someone found some ectoplasm in the car park #ThurrockBeerAndCiderFestival #CAMRA #RealAle
Back for the final session of the Thurrock Beer and Cider Festival to try to cross off the final 18 real ales of the 67 that were on offer. Usually, the greedy gits that endured the crowd on the Friday evening session will have drained a couple of casks before I even got the chance to sample it (I think that the Cherry Porter might be gone.) #CAMRA #ThurrockBeerAndCiderFestival #RealAle
Day four of five at the Thurrock Beer and Cider festival. I've just done a quick tally, and I'm currently sampling my 41st out of the 67 real ales that are printed in the programme. Of the 26 that I am yet to try, there are four that I know that I have drunk when they appeared on the guest ale pump of one of my regular pubs. I usually miss out because a beer will go on for the Friday evening session that will be gone by the time I get back on Saturday lunchtime #RealAle #ThurrockBeerFestival #CAMRA

@ptribble It was a pleasure going into battle alongside you. If my notes are correct, the stats at #CambridgeBeerFestival were 35000 people drinking 69500 pints of #realale, 8100 pints of #cider, 10650 pints of international and 610 bottles of wine from 20000 glasses. You and I cut 859kg cheese which was accompanied by 75kg pickle and 2500 pies and scotch eggs. We served 1637 staff meals to 600 volunteers. £24500 was raised for the festival's chosen charity.
