Nope never happened to me.... Probably only because I don't have pressure barrels.I’ve just done something *really* stupid!
For the first time ever (and I hope the last time ever!) I was pouring a pint when the beer fell to the level of the tap and gas escaped at high pressure. I reacted by immediately closing the tap except, and I suspect you’re ahead of me now, I FULLY OPENED the tap and sprayed the brew-shed (and myself) with half a gallon of Saison!
So to my list of jobs tomorrow, I need to remove all the kegs and wash down the kegs, shelves, and floor. FFS!!!
Am I the only one stupid enough to have done this?
PS It also made my saison cloudy!

I did use to use picnic taps on kegs for when I had more than 3 on, one time the picnic tab didn't shut off and dumped about 15l of beer in my modified chest freezer.

Will look out for the chimay blue. l'm already a fan of westmalle dubbel, might have one of those later in fact...
Thanks.

CBA and sugar and cinnamon coated chestnuts 
No, not that one, I don’t remember trying that one. I’m talking about “Bouncy Bouncy Elephants”. I remember describing it as a really strong vodka and orange, then add passion fruit until it’s too much, and finish with something sweet but I can’t remember what it was - maybe mango?
Their “Manfred” IPA was quite nice too.
Edit: Found it!

Got a few cans and a new glass from our local brewery No Frills Joe who also runs a homebrew club(pre lockdown anyway). They have recently started canning and offer local delivery within an hour so treated myself. Nice crisp Lager whilst watching a bit of Champions League footie.

Yeah it's a nice malty lager, first time I have had this particular one. Got some of their Dreamland IPA too.
I’ll perhaps try their mixed case then - if they’ll deliver to Maidstone. If not, I’ll have them deliver to you and you can bring it round!
