I met him once, in t'Brugs Beertje. That was the only time I'm aware of, though, so I couldn't claim to have known him well. #RIPDes

The Imperial is a fine (and busy) pub. I've been in there twice, once for lunch.

Indeed. Far too long.

And my favourite Kölsch, I see.

Brewed by her ex-boyfriend Marek, who used to brew in the UK. Pivovar Thrills goes from strength to strength.

Yes. Totally agree with you.

I hope you're going to get to t'Puub in Brno old town while you're there. Not to be missed on a visit there and do say hello to my good friend Mili, who runs it.

Fully agreed, David. I did the brewery tour when @fullersjohn.bsky.social was the head brewer there, too. I've been a fan of their beers since living in that there London in 1975/1976.

Oh dear. Get better soon, mate. Black Balsams is good in black coffee, too, as I discovered on a Latvian train once.

I live in Dewsbury. Just on a train back home to get there.

Good for you 🤠

You can get that in several places in West Yorkshire. The local Asians spoil us with food like that here all the time.

My favourite Hefeweizen is Karg but there are other really good ones, including Schneider, Weihenstephan, Jacobs and Rothaus.

I found it better when it was brewed by Ellezelloise, but there you go.

That's a heck of a pub crawl, Dean. I chair Heavy Woollen District CAMRA and I'm pleased you got to a couple of our pubs, but just to clarify, Ossett is in Wakefield CAMRA's area, not ours. If I see you back in the Navi, I'll buy you a pint.

Beer's very expensive and people don't buy rounds. Many Norwegians drink at home before going out. It's a beautiful country full of friendly people.

Amateur hour.
