It's Friday lunchtime and a couple of the lads in the office fancy heading out for a pint. We had not been to ye Olde Mitre for a while so we headed down in that direction. Walking in - nothing has changed. It's supposed to be one of the best/oldest (CAMRA types tend to interchange these words) pubs in London, but I do not really rate it. It's musty and the service is not very friendly unless you are a regular, plus they insist on pulling the beers through a sparkler (I know they will take it off if you ask, I'm just lazy). Anyhow as I had a meeting to get back to I ordered a pint of Oakham Ales Inferno (4.0% abv). This was a tangy fruity pint which went down really easy and has a lasting satisfying bitterness. This actually aided me in smashing the beer down in about three mouthfuls so i could haul ass back the office to join the heated teleconference. Lets just say that the beer was much more exciting than the meeting!

Haha, indeed it is in English. I understand your frustration in that. I wish you well in your beer travels! I just polished off a bottle of Weybacher Riserva 08 myself... excellent brew.
