Yes, we have been quiet haven't we.  We've been fired into action by Matt's departure on Friday after some five and a half years (he first came to des' dinners in 2002).  Matt is starting his own brewery in Cumbria on the premises of Europe's only still working iron mine.  The brewery is likely to be called the Red Man Brewery because the miners look red from the iron ore dust and the brewery's first beer is likely to be named Ol' Flo after the mine.  Good luck Matt and can't wait to try the beer!

No, it's not a put on.  Dan Pitt does live in Palo Alto, California and the entirely legal number plate on his gleaming red Ginetta sports car was inspired by Ginetta specialists Cottage Classics' presence just a up the road from us.

We had a brew last week that was a first.  We used Boadicea, First Gold and Pilot hops grown for us by the Wright brothers (honestly) somewhere in the hinterland between Peasenhall, Sibton and Bruisyard.  We used

malt from Suffolk Beaver barley grown for us by Victor Scott in Brandeston.  It will be another week before we can judge the results.  This is leading towards a new beer provisionally called Brandeston Gold  and eventually all ESB beers will be brewed using only makings from Suffolk.
