Led to believe it was real ale tasting for next season. It was, instead 4 insipid lagers, two bottled and two draught. I'll stick to Bovril. Big bonus for me was seeing Fred 'Golden Gamble' Fort fit and well again.

Surely, to show how dynamic and forward thinking they are it will be Watneys Red Barrel.
