I used to drink that when I was very young and first went to pubs. I didn't like draught beer yet.
Herself was wondering last night what had happened to Barley Wine, very strong ale that used to be sold in nips. One of them was called Russian Imperial Stout... must scan the off-licence shelves next time I remember.
We were in the Rising Sun with the cousins lifting a glass to Peter Donaldson's memory. The pub still belongs to the same people but their nippers were running it last night.
Pint and a half of nice solid Fuller's London Pride would have left me legal I think. Tsk. Must be getting old.
