Talking of hops, we acquired a small batch of bottles of Hophead, brewed by Dark Star, a brewery near Horsham. There are a few breweries in that vicinity, which is welcome after the sad demise of the King & Barnes brewery which was around for a very long time.
I'm glad I mentioned this because it spurred me to see if they had an online shop. They do, and even better, they sell Hophead mini-kegs. I see an order coming up.

I haven't had Dark Star for ages - dark, bitter a bit of a burnt taste. Lovely. One of my top favourite beers.
