I smell an Aleman in the house :shock:

Those 2 old kettle pots must have been taking their toll on the back by the looks of the posture.

Can't make this one as I'm in Amsterdam....Plus after sampling too much at the last meeting ..I'm barred for at least 6 months by SWMBO

 

[Franklin]

But you get to go to Amsterdam???!!! I want to go to the following: http://www.brouwerijhetij.nl/index_en.htm http://www.beertemple.nl/ http://www.indewildeman.nl/indexe.html http://cafegollem.nl/?page_id=14 http://www.beiaardgroep.eu/amsterdam/spui/spuhome/ http://www.cafe-belgique.nl/html/index.html oh... and do the Museums & Galleries.

and me and the Mrs are in Whitby....

Enjoy guys :) hopefully see you in the new year sometime.

 

[markp]

Hopefully I will be there.

Some good bars there Franklin.....but unfortunately, Cafe Gollum is closed .....some licence problem I understand.
I love both In De Wilderman and De Beiaard; the latter stocks La Chouffe on draught.

Steve, if you like mexican food....head to Los Pilones, it's on Kerkstraat.
I love Amsterdam :thumb:

 

[Franklin]

Cheers for the info Mark, hopefully me and Emma will have a few days over there next year sometime.
I've been 3 times previously which has mostly involved 4 1/2 + hours of tattoo work at a little shop down Haarlemmerdijk.
I've not really been drinking around Amsterdam, when I was there my beer tastes weren't quite as broad as they are now.

 

[markp]

Amsterdam is a drinkers paradise.....there are so many good little bars.
I've lost count of the number of times I've been.....I must be pushing close to 20 visits now.

 

[Vossy1]

Can't make this meet I'm afraid

 

[unclepumble]

Thats a shame JP, hopefully see you at the next knutsford meet.

 

[TheMumbler]
