Getting the most from your grains.

When I was a lad in the late 60's every pub in my home town of Northwich sold Greenall Whitley beers brewed in Warrington. They also made Vladivar Vodka. The beer was disgusting but also a lot of pub landlords didn't know how to keep beer. So we went into the Cheshire countryside for a pint of Tetleys or Double Diamond. Yuk

I remember Greenalls mostly rubbish because landlords didn't care, but if you found a pub were it was looked after it was a belting pint sadly few and far between

Didn't know about the podcasts, though. Could you give us a link?

I've only listened to the last 2 but really liked them.

I remember Greenalls Original as ranging from pretty rank to exceptional, often within pubs only meters apart!
