Popped in there yesterday, and had a swift Purgatory on draft, and there was a tast of more. Very nice indeed, and this batch only available in the well.

great to have it back

I've got an American visitor coming over through work this week, so will be taking him out for dinner tomorrow evening, so will pop into the well either before or after food. Not sure what he drinks, but reckon he is easy going enough, so should be grand for a few pints.

Purgatory goes down well with American palates, I can attest!

The American gent that I had with me last night was not much of a hop head, so he enjoyed some Blarney Blonde instead. He asked for a Heineken when we first went in and got a fairly stony no from the barman. He was fairly set in his ways, but did agree that the Blarney Blonde was better than Heineken, so some progress made. I mangled the Purgatory though. I don't think that this batch of purgatory is as hoppy as past ones, but as explained to me, they do need to try to sell it to normal people as well.

good pint as always not the same recipe every year
