Yes indeed, dropped in there once to watch the rugby, alas not a craft beer in sight  :(. Ryan's didn't seem to last more than a year or so if I recall, so hopefully The Beer Market will fare better.

Great meet tonight, and great location too - thanks to Ronan for arranging  ;)

So many great beers (and distilled liquors ... ahem!) difficult to choose any one as a favourite. For me the Pliny clone was the stand out beer, I could totally drink it all day (and night) long  :) The chocolate stout with chilli was also excellent, -just the right amount of heat to balance the sweetness. Citra lemon drop was so drinkable, and I really enjoyed the hibiscus wit, would go down well on a summers day for sure.
