The Black Country Beaujolais Run
Mrs M accuses me of being paranoid about missing out on Bathams XXX. A shout out on Twitter to confirm the likely release date. Facebook messages to my nearset tied house before setting off on a 4 mile walk.
Getting to that time of year again.

Anyone know when the @thebathams XXX hits the @ploughshenstone?
Traditional plans must be formulated!
Best let the good people at Bathams describe what makes the beer so special.
A Christmas ale, mid brown in colour and strong, with a malty, fruity taste.
Hop flavour is present but malt predominates through to the aftertaste. Hold onto your hats, folks!
It also means that Christmas is coming.
The walk was decent enough, a disused railway line taking me within 2 miles of my goal and then decent agricultural fields, nicely frozen.
Arrival at 12:10pm. Tangible excitement in a busily filling up bar. I was second to order but first to tweet.
I win this years Black Country Beaujolais Run. Rewarding myself with an Uber return.
Rambling on three pints of the strong stuff rather unappealing.
