You didn't say hello.

Nah, you and Elizabeth just breezed on by...

The free wifi's great isn't it? I'll be able to watch the rugby on the way home tonight.

No rugby, but a great day. Highlight for me, surprisingly was the Mssrs Maguire Pale Ale. The old reliable Dungarvan Coffee and Oatmeal Stout was great too. I also enjoyed side by side tasting White Gypsy and Mssrs Maguire Yule Ól.

Until next time.

Had a very enjoyable few hours here yesterday afternoon. My first time at FW and won't be my last. Didn't get to try any of the stouts due to time constraints. My favourites were Messrs Maguire IPA, Emerald and Purgatory.

Thanks to the organisers and the suppliers, great to see such quality beer produced in Ireland,

Also got some Kipling and Tzara in Bradleys, all in all not a bad day.

Yeah, excellent day. I had to nip off at 6 to get my train- I was going to the 40th of a friend of the wife; Only to be rung by the wife and be told that she wasn't feeling up to going. Unfortunately I was half way home at that point.

My two favs were both White Gypsy's: The Emerald and the Jule Ol. Look forward to the next FW festival, unfortunately it won't be the EasterFest (I'm in Spain).

I had a great time. I think my favourite was howling gale on cask. Like hop tea, very tannic.
Also loved porterhouse celebration.

One beer that Andrew had tasted like blue cheese. What one was that?
