    Ale's definitely out - that's a winter drink for me as is rough cider. In summer I prefer Blackthorn or a decent lager - especially when it's served from an ice encrusted jug from the freezer (though I've never come across any pubs over here that do that). Also partial to Tinto de Verano & Campari with soda.

        That would be Pimms No.6 I believe, it's not a punch FFS!

              I like my real beer so in summer I'll have a pint of one of the local (Hampshire) "golden" ales.

              I really like wine & champagne but prefer to drink it with food these days.

                  It's not as good as the draught stuff though.

                  Must check the "Steam Co" in Swindon tonight to see when they're having it as a guest ale.

                    No..........sad but true. And the chances of finding it on tap down this way are extremely limited.

                    Is that the place up in Old Town?
