Ivan is not yet convinced that a day out in Ouseburn is a good idea. There's a definite shortage of snacks so far.

Noticed they had this on earlier in the week, glad I made it here before it ran out. Think I've earned it this weekend.

Unexpected benefit of mandatory office attendance, public transport and inclement weather: accidental pint when your train is cancelled at the last minute.

Black Iris Brewery - Snake Eyes

Newcastle Tap

#NewcastleUponTyne

Mrs E kindly suggested a little stop at Bellingham on our way back from the Scottish Borders, notionally so the dog could stretch his legs, but we might as well have some refreshments while we're here.

Another lovely beer from F&L as usual 🍻

Really nice to be in a pub without a TV, what a novel concept . Hope it catches on. Think the dog agrees, although the amount of attention he's getting is embarrassing.

Firebrick Brewery - Pagan Queen

The Heart of Northumberland

#Hexham #Northumberland

After its recent string of poor performances, the "usual" local has the telly off and the fire on. The dog approves, as long as the treats keep coming.

Oh, and the beer's pretty good too 🍻

Gave Ivan a taste of the foam off my finger, I think he'd have happily drunk the whole lot. (We do not need drunk Ivan.)

Firebrick Brewery - Sugar Spun Stout

Earned it. (The dog hasn't.)

Allendale Brewery - Pennine Pale

The Victorian Tap

#Northumberland #Hexham

A beer from Allendale that I haven't had? We must correct this situation. I do like a red rye beer, and this one is helping Northumberland Wildlife Trust. Charity beers don't count for the alcohol allowance, do they?
