I always look for a beer with a conscience, a beer with it's own mind, a living beer, a beer for the many not the few....Then I look at the purity website and I think "Oh do fuck off"Quite, but they do sell some decent beer which will be the first time in living memory at Villa Park.I'm with you on that Chris. Decent beer is exactly what it is.
