I looked them up, are they all pale ales? R-

Nay lad. Best Yorkshire bitter made wit waters fresh from t’Dales. Best served wi’a slice of fruit cake and lump of Wensleydale cheese.

Funnily enough I lapsed into a suitable, if not accurate, accent as I read it. R-

Of course if in Yorkshire there is Theakston's Brewery and a pint of 'Old Peculier'.

I expect Roger would prefer a pint of Frosted Jack?

Well actually, I prefer the “amber” ales such as Doombar, Tribute etc. I mentioned pale ale as that was all I could see online following Steve’s post and Black Sheep. I’ll look up Frosted Jack though although the ABV might be a bit much for me - I’m still learning. R-

It's a Pale ale from the Dorset Brewing Company - so right on your doorstep.

Yup, just down the road, near Dorchester and very popular locally. R-

In this part of the south east there are many pubs where they no longer serve bitter, only pale ales that cater to the taste of soft southern jessies.

If you’re in the north east (just over the North Yorkshire border) try Three Brothers beers (based in Stockton) and Guisborough Brewery (obviously based in Guisborough). Both do recommended brews, often served in my social club.

Not going that far north this time but we’re back next October and usually stray up to Durham and Barnard Castle so I’ll look out for them.
