It's now been exactly one year since I started beer blogging and tweeting and what a year it has been! I've made loads of friends who all love beer, meet most of them in person too! I've widened my ale purchases from a handful of major brands to nearly anything I see that looks remotely like beer as well as starting to really be able to pick out the different smells, tastes & flavours that make real ales so diverse.
In the past twelve months I've 'baron rated' over 250 different bottled ales. This was only possible due to the enormous generosity of a large number of breweries who were willing to submit bottles of their hardwork for a 140 character review and the odd bit of audio!
