Specialising in Birmingham and the Black Country but covering all parts of the Midlands

Breweries from outside the Midlands region are included as, particularly nowadays, beers from other parts of the country are sold across the counters in the Midlands. The section is growing as more images are obtained - not all relevant to the area but, hey, I love beer and it's great fun.

In a desperate bid to minimise junk e-mails, my address is given below as a picture. This means you will physically have to type the address yourself - a bit of a pain for you but it might, just might, reduce the number of e-mails informing me of my latest win on the lottery [I must be a millionaire 326 time over by now!!], or asking me to invest in the administration of some long-lost ancestors last will and testament in which I will gain a fortune, a bargain offer of a hospitality box at Twickenham or Ascot for an amazing �45,000 which, of course, is just throwaway money to me [!], or some pills which will make my genitals grow to the size of the Incredible Hulk. I'm thinking it might be fun to hunt down spammers like Jason Bourne. So, before you tip me over the edge, make sure it is a genuine message related to this site.........

I do try to respond to all messages but, as the e-mails flood in at a rate of knots and I run the site alone, I am generally 1,500 messages behind at any one time. As I type, my e-mail backlog is 1,873 which gives me a headache if I think about it too much and the thought of not answering messages always seems to be on the back of my mind. Please don't hold your breath whilst waiting for a response - instead, pop down the pub and enjoy a nice beer. Life's much nicer with a pint in your hand. Anybody e-mailing with the offer of cash, sponsorship or free beer will, of course, get priority!
