shovel leaner 7,650 Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 20 minutes ago, DIDO.1 said: Mooch round Manchester today....had a pint of joey holts bitter for shovel leaner, a pint of some funky real ale in a nice old bar ruined by students and a nice pint of ipa in the Shakespeare. Thanks for sharing. I have a real love for Manchester and it’s people.All my dad’s family were miners and my grandmother worked in the cotton mills . Although I was born there I was brought up down in Gloucestershire. My dad did his apprenticeship at Dehavaland aircraft company during the war , he was the only one of all his brothers to escape the pit . We later moved to Gloucestershire so he could work at Gloster Aircraft company. TBH the beer in these parts isn’t the best . However there are a few small craft brewers around and things are improving. But Cider , there is some good cider produced locally . There were even cider houses in Gloucester when I was young . But that’s all gone now . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
